The "gift" that keeps giving?

I checked around for spinosad products in my country and it sure is available. Laser insecticide. But I'm a little worried. Within all those search results there were numerous hits with news of bee slaughter. I remember when this happened. They found out that 12% of bees dies from spinosad. Main cause of bee dying out was insecticide Fipronil. Laser product also reads: Danger to bees and water insects.

I wonder how safe this product really is.

This whole thread revolves around spinosad. Anything other that will kill thrips or at least keep them under control?

I just got the stuff the other day haven't used it yet tho.... i wanted to wait a week or so tell that spray i been using wears off...looks promising...

read the label and follow the disposal directions,uv light destroys it within 16 hours,as long as you're careful it should be fine.

Appreciate the advice here. Found some thrips and came here immediately. Found the info on the Spinosad. Bought it and sprayed it.

I could not find the Monterey Garden that people have used here, instead I used one by Green Light. I'll edit this post in a few days and let you know how it worked.

The thrip infested plants will finish fine and wont compramise the final product...other than yield.
