Bonide Systemic Houseplant Insect Control, 8 oz Ready-to-Use Granules for Indoors and Outdoors, Protects Plants from Insects

Great for mealybugs and thrips!Successfully killed mealybugs with one treatment and thrips with about 3-4 treatments. Very easy to use. Much easier than topical insecticide.

This stuff works great to get rid of those pesky bugs! I keep it on hand!

We had a major gnat infestation in our office—constantly buzzing around, distracting us, and impossible to get rid of. I tried multiple solutions, but this was the only thing that actually worked. Within a couple of days, the gnats were gone! It didn’t cause any issues for the plants, and they stayed healthy the entire time.I used one canister for about eight plants, including two large potted ones. You don’t get a ton in a canister, so it’s pretty expensive for the amount, but it’s worth it for getting rid of gnats. About 6–7 months later, we got new plants and had another gnat problem. I used this again and noticed I had to “freshen up” the treatment on the older plants because the gnats had spread back. I also didn’t notice any strong odor, which was a nice bonus. Overall, great quality and long-lasting, but you will need to reapply over time to keep the gnats at bay!Taking off one star because of the price, but overall, it’s a great product that does what it promises!

Good product, saved my bushes

I cannot comment yet on effectiveness but I can comment on the ridiculous and misleading packaging. I opened the container to use and thought there had been an error and the container had not been filled correctly, less than half full! But, I weighted it and the weight seems correct. Which means the manufacturer could have used a package half as larger and STILL had room for settling to occur!I will update review with more stars if it works in getting rid of a serious infestation of fungus gnats that came in a bad (very expensive) bag of potting soil. Threw out most of the plants but two large pots I really didn’t want to get rid of.Update: the product seems to have been about 98% effective with one application. But will have to get more for subsequent treatments. So, would recommend but know there is very little product in the package.

This alongside some mosquito bits have solved my fungus gnat problem. Bonide worked perfect but I was extra grossed out by the gnats so I added the bits to the top of the soil in my potted plants and GNATS ARE GONE!

We have been struggling with gnats for a while because I have a lot of indoor plants. I have tried a lot of the home remedies. This product really makes a difference. My problem was only buying one. Since I have so many plants, I have re-ordered three more containers.
