I ditto Blackvine's sentiments. I don't want to get into a debate over insecticides vs "all natural"...it's a topic that has been beaten into the ground on this forum. But, I will say I don't overuse products such as this and I am very careful when I find their use is called for.
I understand it's not a "target" pest control...which is why it's so effective on a multitude of pests. The granules being watered into the pots makes for a "safer" application method vs. if one was to use a spraying application.
But, yes, as w/many products we use today (including the laundry detergents many people use!) caution must taken to follow the label instructions and use responsibly.
Bottom line... We were asked what we do...we responded. Feel free to post up your "organic" solution to the OP's problem.
