Bonide Captain Jack's Neem Max, 8 oz Concentrated Cold Pressed Neem Oil

This product is amazing at killing pests. I have a heavy intestation of Japanese beetles, and this is one of the best broad spectrum insecticides for indoor / outdoor use on the market. It can also be used in a hydroponic system and is recommended for organic gardening. This 16 oz bottle will make up to 20 gallons of pesticide concentrate. Because I have a heavy infestation I need 4.5 tablespoons per gallon of water. I have Japanese Beatles crawling all over the place and what this does is destroys their ability to breathe by coating their body with an oil and also when ingested, they die. Mixed in a one gallon sprayer it's very easy to spray, it does not have any residue. It is recommended that you wait until it's below 90°. So spray in the morning or in the evening and coat your leaves, but don't drench them dripping wet. This it product can be used on bulbs, fruity vegetables, legumes, roots tree nuts, herbs, spices, even on grass, lawns and ornamentals. One amazing versatile pesticide. This one bottle that's gonna make up to 20 gallons is a great product, safe to use and has a great price. I don't think you could ask for more.

All I can say is it works! Fantastic!!! I noticed a difference within a day!~ I had these black little gnats all in my house plants, I used it in the water and spray. I noticed in the spray it killed them in a second. Its now day 2 and I have not seen a single gnat! Neem oil is a bit smelly on the nose, but it goes away. I opened the window and with in a little bit the odor was gone. Well worth the wait of the odor for the results of the product! PEST FREE at last. I have used other products and never saw such fantastic results.

Had an issue with fungus gnats after purchasing some new plants. Bought this , mixed it up in a gallon jug as directed and watered all the plants. Took about a week but no more annoying little flies!! It does have a strong scent when you first water the plants, but fades quickly. I will continue to use this occasionally to keep them at bay! I also bought decorative sand to cover over the planting soil as that was recommended to keep them from laying eggs in the soil and sticky traps to catch any lingering fliers. Highly recommend if you're having this issue with indoor plants.

Good product, not an immediate fix though. I had an aphid problem ( not quite an infestation, but definitely on its way to causing major damage to my seedlings) that was causing an ant problem because of the sticky residue that the aphids leave behind. I diluted the product as directed on the bottle. The first morning I sprayed my plants, underside and tops of leaves. By the next morning, I had more leaf damage from the aphids... Even though the product stated to wait a few days in between applications, I used again the next morning. Still had aphid residue/presence of bugs. So for the third application (4 days after initial application) I added a little bit of liquid castile soap, BOOM, the problem was gone by that evening. I washed off the mixture with my water hose and made sure that I wiped away any leftover bug residue in case the stronger mixture was too strong, to avoid leaf damage. Separate issue with a different colored aphid, the green ones, on my sugar snap peas. They were attacking all new growth. I used the instructions on bottle, but added a half teaspoon extra and the problem was gone the next day. I probably should have waited a couple of hours then washed away the mixture because all of the new growth was somewhat wilted/damaged. But this was completely my own wrong doing! Sugar snap pease are pretty delicate, especially the new growth. But they continued to grow and the damage was minimal. Good product, worked fast. Id recommend doing your own due diligence and just play around with measurements on the dilution of this product if it doesn't seem to work after the first couple of applications. Try it out on a very small section of plant that won't be too harmful if damage is done.

Extremely effective against Japanese beetles and other pests in the garden. I also used it on one of my dogwood trees that had powdery mildew. I did a test on a few leaves after the sun was down to ensure it would not burn. Then I drenched the leaves top and bottom once a week. I did not spray the trunk as it is a young tree. The neem oil did eradicate the mildew, but it has to be applied consistently. Also it will burn tender leaves (such as zinnias) if applied too strongly or in the sun. Your best bet is to wait to apply it when it’s dusk. I find it lasts about 2 days for pests like Japanese beetles. I also used it in my garden on and around my basil plants (especially on the ground) to thwart slugs. This was the first year my basil plants had no slug or other bug damage. It does have a unique odor (somewhere between garlic and coffee grounds) but it fades quickly.

~this def wrks...I was the bugs crawl out of my dahlias when I use ths.. !~& it takes such a small amount I was able to share this bottle with my neighbor & sister...!!

I grow tomatoes every year and this year in particular the leaf footed bugs have been super persistent. The adult bugs have to be removed manually but this mix does so well to stop the nymphs from maturing. The provided measuring lid is super helpful and it's a great price.

Jack’s Neem Max Concentrate has been a useful addition to my garden care routine. It’s easy to mix and apply, and a little goes a long way. I like using it as part of my regular plant-care routine to help keep common garden pests under control. It’s convenient to have a concentrated product rather than buying a ready-to-use spray. Overall, a good option for gardeners looking for a neem-based plant treatment.
