## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why do I still see fungus gnats flying around after one week post-application? I thought it killed anything that ingested the pesticide?**
A: Treating fungus gnats requires a multi-prong approach to address all stages of its lifecycle (egg, larvae, pupae, adults). Treatments are not a "one-time only" kind of thing.  What you see flying around is the adults whose main goal is to lay eggs in the moist soil. The adults do not feed on the plants so this insecticide does nothing to kill them. Adults generally live about a week but will lay approximately 300 eggs in that time.  When the larvae emerge, they live in and feed on the organic matter in the soil for about 2 weeks. My understanding is that most types of fungus gnats do not feed on the plant roots if there is sufficient organic matter in the soil. So, again, this systemic insecticide won't kill the larvae if they are not eating the roots. It is not until they become adults that they emerge from the soil and then the cycle begins again.

Here is what I do to address fungus gnats:
- Provide gentle airflow in the room and use well-draining potting soil to allow the soil to dry out sooner. I add extra perlite to almost all bagged potting soils for my indoor plants. Try not to overwater.
- Keep yellow sticky traps around my plants at all times. These catch and kill the adults. When I had a bad infestation, I put lots of the sticky traps in my pots and changed them as they filled up with gnats. Now I just keep one trap near the plants as a way to monitor for the presence of any pests. 
- Use "Mosquito Dunks" or other similar products that contains BTi (Bacillus Thuringiensis subspecies Israelensis) as a soil drench. BTi is a naturally occurring bacteria that kills the larvae of both mosquitoes and fungus gnats but is safe for people and pets. Soak half of a "Mosquito Dunks" donut in a gallon or so of water overnight. Use this solution to water the plants. Make sure to thoroughly drench the entire soil surface, especially around the sides/edges of the pot. With an active infestation, it is necessary to reapply the solution at least weekly for a minimum of 6 weeks to stop the lifecycle. You will initially see a decrease in fungus gnats but do not be deceived! If you only treat 1-2 times, they will return. The "Dunks" can be reused many times. 
- As a preventive measure, I use the "Mosquito Dunks" soil drench at least once a month to replace one of my regular waterings. Between doing this and monitoring the sticky traps, I no longer have problems with the annoying little creatures.

**Q: does this product take care of red spider mites ?**
A: No.  Spider mites are not insects they are mites.  Regular insecticides will not kill spider mites and sometimes makes them worse.  You have to use a miticide, neem oil but watch what you put that on it will kill or burn some plants or try Murphy's oil soap or dish soap mixed with water.  Reapply in about 5 days to kill any newly hatched eggs.

**Q: Does this product get rid of scale?**
A: Yes it will get rid of scale because scale is an insect

**Q: will this product kill bagworms?**
A: No, Bonide Systemic granules are not labeled for bagworms.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great on trap crop to kill cucumber beetles
*by R***S on June 22, 2025*

I’m using this in a trap crop of blue Hubbard squash planted in 5 gallon buckets. I read and article that recommended systemic imidacloprid applied to potted blue hubbard to trap cucumber beetles and squash bugs . I will not be eating the squash. So far it’s working great with the cucumber beetles. I haven’t seen a lot of squash bugs yet. But it seems to be killing cucumber beetles almost exclusively.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works good
*by S***N on May 12, 2025*

Works great. You can’t even see it in your soil. Killed all the thrips in about a week. You get a lot for your money but it goes by weight and not how full the container is so don’t be concerned if your container “isn’t full” all the advertised product is there, you are def getting your moneys worth.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yes, you're getting the amount it says. Yes, it is effective.
*by P***R on April 11, 2025*

Everyone gets upset about the bottle capacity, and while I agree the bottle is large, you're getting the exact amount it says! The shape of the bottle is slim enough that it's not taking up a lot of space. The effectiveness of this stuff is crazy, just make sure you're not putting any of your treated plants outside as it can kill good bugs as well. Be careful with pouring as it can get dusty, but I'll definitely be buying more. Very easy to apply and worked quickly.
