Can your plants OD on Hot Shot No Pest Strips?

There are no studies that point to, or evidence of, dichlorvos being a carcinogen.
DDVP is widely used as an insecticide in the foodstuffs and green house industries. Not toxic, and water neutralizes it completely. As a result, it is not a very effective outdoor treatment.
I use it indoor with every confidence.

Exactly what he said, I use it and have for some time, indoors with every confidence. It is a commonly accepted greenhouse pesticide.

Used to raise reptiles back in the day. it was common to put one near your snakes to kill scale mites, one time i used it with a new snake and a day later the snake vomited up worms that had been inside that had been killed by the strips. I use them near my plants periodically turning off the ventilation and letting them soak it up, then i put the strip back in a ziplock till i use it again you only need to use it a couple of days at a time. I would rather use that then some systemic especially since water neutralizes the poison and plants are over 80% water

I have used the strips with good results but only during veg!!! My flowering room is sealed and I do not use any pesticides once the plants have begun flowering.
