I am looking to buy the product pictured in the United States. The only places that have it online now are in the U.K. and other European countries. I bought it about a year ago online without a problem. Has anyone seen it for sale at a garden center, etc. in the USA? I would contact them and see if they would ship it to me in Phoenix.

Please post an image of the back of the label so the ingredients show. Perhaps it can be matched either exactly or very closely to something sold here.

Not to burst any bubbles but I don't bother with any product where the company is unwilling to share the ingredients. The product information says: "Contains a unique blend of plant safe, physical pest control surfactants". My favorite line is "Exempt from registration as a pesticide and therefore requires no pesticide certification in pesticide use." It also bills itself as a "plant stimulant and foliar feed - helps prevent chlorosis and improves leaf colour." Essentially, it kills insects by gluing them down smothering them and contains a small amount of iron and nitrogen. Foliar sprays treat symptoms, but do not fix problems.

In my opinion, you would be better off using Insecticidal Soap and a balanced fertilizer. If anyone is interested, here are my references:

https://www.tudorenvironmental...

PS: A foliar lattice is a wetting agent and linear sulfonate is used in the production of detergents. I'm not sure what either has to do with plants.

Thank you Daisy for your excellent information. I just use this inside my home under my artificial lights for some orchids and Hoyas for spider mites. I does really help. I know the other products you recommend and they are excellent. However I just use Sb Invigorator as a quick help and I do like it because my plants are healthy and it eliminates the spider mites if I use it every week or so.
