Bonide Captain Jack's 64 oz Neem Max Cold Pressed Neem Oil Spray for Indoor or Outdoor Plants & Organic Gardening

I didn't know this had a battery operated sprayer. Bonus! I can't believe I have lived this long without it! I love using Neem and this has made the application much easier. I have subsequently purchased concentrated refill bottles, saving money. This has been very effective keeping away the aphids and other bugs on my veggie garden and fruit trees.

I wanted something to combat fungus gnats in the soil of some of my house plants, so I ordered this product, with the sprayer wand, which makes it very easy to use. I have a couple fiddle leaf fig plants which are notorious for getting gnats in the soil, yet they are not happy about being repotted with a soil change, so what to do? I sprayed the entire plant outside- under the leaves, on the leaves, stem and the soil surface as well. I know I may have to amend this process with another soil Bonide treatment, and that's fine, but the neem oil in the Captain Jack did a beautiful job of treating these huge leaves.At first the spray left white dots, and I thought I would have to wipe off the surface again but once dry, the leaves are gorgeous, shiny and clean looking now that the spray has dried. I see no evidence of bugs, so mission accomplished~ The battery-operated wand makes this very easy to use but do spray outside if you can.

While this sprays out way to much and way to fast the only problem I see is it not lasting by the time you finish one plant it is goneBut it works great. The smell is nasty. And the directions while clear are scary. States if it gets on you to wash for 25 min scrubbing each area for 25minutes. And call poison control. Nothing about why or anything but I did get it on me and I didn’t grow an extra horn so idk.Does it kill bugs I’m not sure as grasshoppers and something are still eating holes in my leafs outside plantsI fear spraying indoor plants as the jet of power when it sprays out is strong might hurt tiny indoor plantsI wish there was a setting to tell it to calm down.

This is a high quality product, perfect for organic gardening. The price was good; however, the product shows a sprayer with this bottle, which is why I bought it, but no spray attachment came with the bottle. I will have to find another way to put it on my plants, which is disappointing.

I don't know if this works or not. All the pictures show a sprayer attached. Mine did NOT come with a sprayer, couldn't use it.

This helps keep the nats away from your plants.Very effective almost instantly.Organic way to deter bugs.Not a strong smell.Lasts for a long time before another application.Great value for money.

As a new gardener, I have been learning all the ins and outs of floral care and how to deal with the many pests that come along with it. I've previously used other neem oil products and saw this one was on sale and being much cheaper than others, I figured I'd try it. Let me tell you, this stuff puts in the work. For starters, the sprayer is so much easier to use as it is battery operated so you don't have to constantly pull a trigger. It does well covering the plant and its effects seem to last much longer and be much more effective. While I do still have to spray my plants multiple times, it's much less frequent. It is a little more fregrant than other neem oils but I think this aids in its effectiveness. The smell isn't too strong, but you will notice it walking through the garden. I definitely recommend this product.

I grow most of our veggies and indoors under lights year around, and bought this neem oil primarily to eliminate spider mites that I brough in with an online purchase. I did get the battery operated spray, but I use a spray bottle that dispersed the spray more evenly. Neem oil will kill bugs and eggs, but it is a contact spray and must be sprayed directly on eggs and bugs to kill them. Leaves must be sprayed top and bottom, stems must be sprayed, and even the soil must be sprayed for any bug or eggs in the soil. Especially when the plants have a lot of foliage, multiple sprays are required in an effort to spray all of the bugs and eggs. For something like spider mites, this means spraying the plants thoroughly every other day for up to 2 weeks. If you miss any mites or eggs, they start reproducing all over again.For example, a spider mite female, within a few days of hatching, can produce 8-20 eggs per day and live up to 3 weeks. That means that one female spider mite, if left undisturbed, can theoretically produce 300+ eggs by the end of her life. If you get spider mites, you must be diligent in consistent spraying to prevent a severe infestation. I have been battling spider mites for a couple of years, and I can't honestly say you ever get rid of them. About the best you can do is to control them.If you do have spider mites or other bug problems, this gallon bottle, since it is ready to use, will not last long depending on the number of plants you have. It might be more cost effective to buy a concentrate that needs to be diluted. If you have a number of plants to spray, as I do, this gallon bottle is a good size, but is not cost effective.I do like that this spray is all natural and not toxic, but there are other options for concentrated sprays that are added to water that last much longer. This spray is effective as a contact spray, but the key word here is "contact". If you miss one female or one egg, they can start up all over again.I hope this review was helpful for you.
