Natural Insecticides
There are a number of effective natural insecticides made from materials such as chrysanthemum blossoms (pyrethrum) and neem oil soap. There is detailed information about each natural insecticide in Yardener’s Tool Shed.
Natural Repellent Insect Sprays
There are a number of botanic repellant sprays available for use against Japanese Beetles and many other pest insects. These products both kill and/or repel. Japanese Beetles doused with these sprays either die or move. New Japanese Beetles coming along avoid the area with the repellent spray for several days to a few weeks.
