I hear you! I don’t use it or any of that crap. I doubt if spraying it is any worse for you than smoking it later! But 3/4 of the people on this forum don’t seem to mind. Depends on how bad you want to get a loaded!
I used to watch an organic garden show where the guy made a point by spraying BT directly in his mouth. It’s pretty safe and is available organically. But it is a biological control and has to be eaten after mixed and applied to the plant. But it works like a champ. I had a bad year with the little bud worms and after that, I used BTK at first sight of a worm and haven’t had any issues since.@Madbud @MisterHelix is BT as hazardous as the label makes it out to be? I got some on my finger and some blowback misting when the sprayer came undone under pressure, and I ran to take a long hot shower. Do I need to Walter White-up to use this stuff or are the printed warnings out of an abundance of caution?
I did get about half the plant sprayed before paranoia set it (Thuracide's label is intended to frighten) and so today I found both black, shriveled up, dead caterpillars, some lively greens, and one tiny white baby.I used to watch an organic garden show where the guy made a point by spraying BT directly in his mouth.

How do you keep spider mites and caterpillars away?I hear you! I don’t use it or any of that crap. I doubt if spraying it is any worse for you than smoking it later! But 3/4 of the people on this forum don’t seem to mind. Depends on how bad you want to get a loaded!
The spider mites happen to me this year. But I got the best recipe and it's 100% okay for your plant. You need one of those sprayers because the regular pump sprayers going to have your hand hurting really quick because you have to spray both the top and the bottom of the leaves with this. It's 1/4 cup peppermint Castile soap one quarter cup tea tree oil Castile soap one cup of rubbing alcohol and one tablespoon of peroxide. Mix with 2 quarts of warm water. This to me was miraculous! Everything dead! The first time I did this I ordered the Soaps from online and it was kind of expensive. I went to the local store here, Meijers, and they had both of those in the store, on hand, generic brand, for 10 bucks (32 oz) each.I mean I went through about 1/3 of the plant and picked out bugs, webs, poop, and any kind of rot or drying or just anything weird.
Also a 50 year old here but with fibro, lumbar herniations, arthritis, and both knees are f*cked. Some days it's all I can do to stand up. I'll see what I can do w her. Thanks mate.
Here's the best recipe. It works every time period and it's a 100% okay for your plant. I am a big grower and this is the only thing I will use. It kills on contact and it kills everything! 1/4 cup peppermint Castile soapHow do you keep spider mites and caterpillars away?
Guy i don’t mix soil without gloves and a mask. This is nasty stuff we use. Madcow from bonemeal has been suspected. I wouldn’t want to spray anything in my eyes either so wear glasses at least.@Madbud @MisterHelix is BT as hazardous as the label makes it out to be?
