This is captain Jack’s bug spray. It works great on potato beetles, it also works really well on European cabbage moth caterpillars. Anything that consumes leaves and takes out pieces of leaves. If it’s a piercing, sucking insect, it won’t work really well. This stuff is tops if you’re an organic grower, you have to try it. Actually I think it works as well as any thing, including the synthetics. It’s active ingredient is Spinosad, which is derived from a bacteria. Spinosad is very toxic to the insect. When the insect’s eat it, they will be dead the next day.
