SharpShooter Natural Insecticide
Use SharpShooter to control the toughest bugs on your favorite roses, flowers, vegetables, shrubs and fruit trees. SharpShooter kills the most common flying and crawling insects.
SharpShooter is made of natural plant oils that kill insects on contact. You can even spray up to the day of harvest. Our handy ready-to-use formula can be used indoor and outdoor. For larger jobs, buy one of our sprayers and the concentrate to make your own and get the product higher into the trees and shrubs. One gallon makes up to 28 gallons of mixed product. It's a great deal!
The liquid fertilizer and Neem Oil and other concentrate products make excellent foliar sprays for indoor and outdoor plants. For light duty applications, we have 32 ounce spray bottles for sale.
They are graduated in 2 ounce increments and have an adjustable nozzle. Write down what ever is in it on the bottle, which is an excellent idea for safety by the way. That way, if you keep it in the fridge, no one will think it's a great new salad dressing you just made!
By the way, if you mix more fertilizer than you're going to use right away, the fridge or a cool dark place is the best place for it. Once you mix the fertilizer with water it becomes activated, and can start fermenting. Storage of mixed fertilizer for long periods of time is not recommended. Keeping it cool will help slow the fermentation process. Don't leave it in the hot sun with stuff in it. The bottle will explode! It won't hurt anything but, you'll have a big stinky mess to clean up! Try to mix only what you will need at one time.
Organic Liquid fertilizers great as a compost enhancer too. Whether you compost in a pile, or use a composter like we sell, you can mist the compost on occasion. This will speed up the process, as well as add vital nutrients to the final product.
1 Gallon of Sharpshooter RTU (Ready-To-Use) Comes with a handy trigger spray nozzel so you can use it right out of the box.

Killing the Japanese Beetles directly with SharpShooter or other organic methods when they are out of control and eating all your preferred plants is sometimes necessary to get ahead of the problem. However, if you don't treat your lawn and surrounding areas for grubs you will be doing battle with Japanese Beetles forever and in the end you will lose. Nature holds all the cards.
In order to treat the cause of the problem you will want to use Milky Spore on your turf and grounds and maybe even Nematodes to kill the grubs and eggs in the soil where they breed.
The nematodes kill flea larvae in the soil too!
10 oz. Milky Spore Treats 2,500 Sq. Ft.
40 oz. Milky Spore, Treats 10,000 Sq. Ft.
20 lbs bags cover 7,000 sq. ft.
Apply three times a year for two years for full effectiveness.
*The dispenser tube (Seen to the left) goes Priority Mail which means that when you order Milky Spore and a dispenser one will show up before the other so, don't be surprised if that happens.

Crabshell Fertilizer can help kill grubs too. Apply with milky spore, to give your lawn a fighting chance against the grubs, and fertilize to help restore it after the beating it took.
The best policy for treatment of insect problems is to Identify what insect you're dealing with. Then, find out what habitat it thrives in and, once you do that, when ever possible, change the habitat to one they don't like. This will often times make them go away. Sometimes this can mean, planting different plants in that area that the insect(s) aren't attracted to, or changing the soil from wet heavy soil to light sandy soil or vice versa.
If you have bugs that eat wood, find the food source and fix it or get rid of it. Repair and replace any rotted sills or posts around the property. Some areas of the country are now facing problems with wood eating ants or termites that never had them before because of the excessive use of bark mulch in landscaping practices. Use stone mulch or other suitable material if you find this to be the case in your area.
Remember, some insects are beneficial to your landscape and farm. You want them there, like the black ants on your Peonies. They eat the sap that sticks the bud leaves together and make them flower.
You can kill as many bugs as you like but, if the conditions are right for them to be there, they will probably just move back in again and you'll be buying a lot of insecticide with your hard earned money!
Follow the directions on the label of any product you buy and maintain "Good Safety Practice" at all times. Remember, even natural substances can be harmful if used improperly.
