thuricide concentrate
August 11, 2011
Verified Purchase
I decided to try thuricide, instead of killing tomatoe worms with sevin or other insecticide. I am always concerned about killing off the pollinators, along with the worms. I sprayed at 1 tblsp per gallon, and after 2 days the worms dropped off, so far it seems to work very well. The only question I have about the product that I can't find in any product written material, is; shoul I use the product before an infestation, to prevent it from happening in the 1st place?

Terrible problem with tent caterpillars in our apple & pecan trees. Applied Thuricide when tents started to appear and they were gone in a week. No signs of any tents after a month of treatment

Thuricide Concentrate can save waterlilies.
July 8, 2011

I have used this recently as well as in the past, with 100% effectiveness. I am using it against the China Mark Moth larvae, and other larval insect pest, on my waterlilies. I do mix it strongly, as it is being used in a aquatic environment. 4 capfulls in a 16oz sprayer of water. I spray the pads in late evening, as strong sun will inhibit it's effectiveness. Most of the time, a single application will do the job. Worst case, 3 treatments, 3 evenings in a row. Side benefit, no a single, living mosquito larvae to be found in any of my pond, following the treatments.

Works great on the moths for the Cole Crops. Wish it would work for aphids.

I was getting swallowtail butterfly caterpillars that were eating my lemon trees alive and this spray has really helped. One quick application and I haven't seen any caterpillars since!

They Live On!
February 7, 2012
I did several Google searches on how to get rid of fungus gnats in house plants. Many recommended Thuricide. I gave the plants a good soil drenching and the gnats are still here . . . still annoying me. Oh well. I'm sure this stuff is good at killing other bugs, but not gnats.

no more swallowtail butterflies
June 3, 2012
no more caterpillers. There is lots of new growth on my orange tree, which is what I was waiting for before I could review this product. So far I think it is great. I have sprayed it on everything, the Ixora had tent caterpillers, so did the Royal Poinciana tree. I mixed it with Epsom salts and fertilizer, sort of an all purpose growth enhancer. I will be buying more from this company. Thanks so much for the great information about how to take care of my yard myself. Ariel Hounshell

waiting for new growth
May 27, 2012
Can't really tell yet, I have only used it twice so far, and I am still looking for new growth on my orange tree. Seeing results takes a few weeks I imagine. Still hopeful.

Bag Worm infestation!
June 25, 2012
We have a considerable infestation of Bag worms on mature Leland Cypress. I have applied this twice and saw good results both times. Active feeding worms were destroyed. I am not sure I have interupted the Bag Worm life cycle as of now and will be applying a third application today. If I can save the trees the rating will go to 5 stars

Works Effectively - Very impressed!

After just one use on my vegetable garden there was a significant improvement in health of the leaves. The thuricide did its job in reducing the number of tomato horn worms feeding on my plants. It also worked very well on my bouganville plants that have been unhealthy for years. In just two weeks new plant growth is emerging.
Great product and very effective! I highly recommend it.
The only drawback is the strong order - use in well ventilated areas.
