Insecticides

Aphids, caterpillars, beetles, and whiteflies all show up eventually, and they don’t all respond to the same treatment. Neem oil and pyrethrin handle most garden pest pressure without a lot of collateral damage to beneficial insects. Bt is worth keeping on hand for caterpillar problems: it’s specific, effective, and doesn’t affect anything it’s not targeting. When pressure runs heavier, synthetic options give more knockdown and longer residual protection. Nixa Hardware & Seed Co carries insecticides across the full range, organic through conventional, for garden, lawn, and field applications.
