Step by Step Product Instructions
Beetle Be Blasted
Instructions for Japanese Beetle Deterrent. Patent Protected
Mixing Directions:
- Shake concentrate well, of course!
- Use a new application sprayer. If not new, clean well and make sure the lines are clean and clear.
- Add water to your application sprayer before adding concentrate.
- Add 1oz of concentrate Beetle Be Blasted to 1 gallon of water.
- Shake well, agitating well until blended, like you mean it.
- If it separates, shake again. You got this.
Application Use:
- Suggested to begin application a week before beetles have emerged.
- Saturate the entire plant. Apply an even coating, under the leaves and the stem as well.
- Apply at minimum once per week.
- When beetles have emerged, for best results application is done 3-5 times a week when beetles are present. Blast them with this deterrent.
- For an infestation, use 2oz of concentrate per 1 gallon of water and use daily. It won’t hurt the plant.
- Ideal application is morning or evening when temperatures are low. However no damage to the plant has been observed in 10 years if used anytime of day.
- We have found that it is an effective control of other soft bodies pests such as aphids, mealy bugs, mites, etc
