Kill Caterpillars and Leaf-Feeding Worms with a Powerful, Naturally-Derived Formula
Safer Brand Caterpillar Killer uses a naturally-occurring bacterium to effectively kill caterpillar-stage insects and leaf-feeding worms that wreak havoc on your vegetation. Simply mix and spray the solution onto trees, shrubs and vegetables for the ultimate protection against these harmful organisms. OMRI listed and approved for organic gardening, Safer Brand Caterpillar Killer can be applied to edible plants up until the day of harvest.
Easy-to-Mix Concentrate Makes over 250 Times the Amount of Solution
This small, economical bottle contains a concentrated solution that yields over 250 times the amount of usable solution. Simply mix a small amount of Safer Brand Caterpillar Concentrate with water as directed, and store the rest for later use. One 16 ounce bottle of concentrate protects over 10,000 square feet of plantings.
Immediately Stops Feeding upon Ingestion
The active ingredient in Safer Brand Caterpillar Killer is a naturally-occurring bacterium called Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki. Caterpillars and certain leaf-feeding worms have a specific pH in their guts that causes the bacterium to release a toxin in their blood as soon as they ingest it. This reaction immediately stops them from feeding, and eventually kills them. In this way, Safer Brand Caterpillar Killer not only protects your plants, but also prevents further infestation by breaking the breeding cycle.

The Benefits of Organic Gardening
Besides preventing the harmful effects caused by synthetic chemicals, organic gardening offers a host of additional economic and health benefits. An organic regimen saves money in the long run by helping to create sustainable gardens that produce greater yields, reducing the need for fertilizers and pest controls over time. Furthermore, increased organic matter in your soil reduces erosion and conserves water, and organic produce is more flavorful and nutrient-dense. Because Safer Brand products are third-party certified for use in organic gardening - both by OMRI and the NOP - you can be sure that the pest control products you choose fit into an organic gardening regimen.
