Default Effectiveness/safety of X-Clude insecticide?

Has anyone used X-Clude brand insecticide? If so, can you share any feedback (positive or negative) regarding its effectiveness for use on orchids (primarily cattleyas)? I've now brought all of my orchids back into the sunroom to spend the winter after summering them outside. I was expecting a few invertebrate freeloaders tagging along, so it's not a big surprise for me to now be finding telltale bite marks on the tips of my orchids' roots. I've already put down slug/snail killer (which I refuse to use outside due to its toxicity to birds, amphibians, etc.). But I'd like to cover all my bases and am interested in finding something with relatively low toxicity, longevity and without bad side effects for the environment once the plants return to the outdoors next spring. X-Clude sounds like a good choice; however, never having used it before, I'd appreciate anyone's feedback who has had experience with this insecticide. Thank you.

Steve
