Derived from Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki, a naturally occurring bacteria, this insecticide targets caterpillars while being safe for beneficial insects like ladybirds and bees. Organic Crop Protectants products are formulated with natural, low toxic, and organic ingredients, providing you with a safe and eco-friendly pest management solution.
Certified Organic: Approved for use in organic gardens by Australian Certified Organic (ACO), ensuring compliance with organic gardening standards.
Versatile Control: This powerful formula effectively targets a range of caterpillar pests including Armyworm, cotton bollworm, native budworm (Helicoverpa sp), cabbage moth caterpillars, cabbage white butterfly caterpillars, green looper, light brown apple moth caterpillars, pear looper, vine moth caterpillars, soybean looper, and tobacco looper.
Application: Suitable for use on various plants including vegetables, fruits, vines, herbs, ornamental shrubs, flowers, and trees, providing comprehensive protection throughout your garden.
Safe and Sustainable: Designed to be safe for bees, ladybirds, birds, fish, mammals, and pets, ensuring minimal impact on the environment and ecosystem.
How it Works: Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki disrupts the digestive system of targeted insects by producing a toxic protein, leading to paralysis of the insect’s gut. Caterpillars consuming treated foliage cease feeding and typically perish within 3-4 days before dropping from the leaf.
Usage Instructions: For optimal results, avoid spraying during hot conditions or when plants are experiencing moisture stress. The best time for application is in the late afternoon.
Preparation: Simply add the required amount of Yates Nature’s Way Caterpillar Killer to water, ensuring thorough mixing. It’s essential not to prepare more spray than necessary.
- Mix one 10g sachet per 10 litres of water.
- Apply when caterpillars or their damage first appear, ensuring coverage of both sides of foliage.
- Reapply every 5-7 days as needed, particularly after rainfall or when new caterpillars hatch.
- Avoid spraying in hot conditions or when plants are under moisture stress.
- Prevent chemical runoff into drains, sewers, streams, or ponds.
- After use, securely close opened sachets and store in a cool, dry place out of reach of children, away from direct sunlight.
- Dispose of empty containers responsibly.
- May cause irritation to eyes and skin; avoid contact and wash hands after use.
