MOSKITOS Organic Mosquito Larvae Control Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, 5% AS, 1 L ,Pink

I was facing a terrible infestation of fungus gnats/fruit flies, in the soil of my potted plants in my flat.When the infestation was out of control, these small black insects, much smaller than mosquitoes, could be seen hopping around the plant soil & flying around them, and since they are tiny, coming into our flat easily through the mosquito netting holes and hovering over trash bins with fruit peels & any open fruit. It was horrible & disgusting!I tried the usual internet suggestions of neem oil sprays along with baking soda & pril (dishwash liquid). I tried many brands of pesticides & none seemed to work.By making banana peel traps (short drinking glasses, with ripe banana peels, the mouth covered with cling film & secured with rubberband; the clingfilm pierced with toothpicks & ball point pen tips, for insects to enter) I saw the sheer volume of gnats that I trapped in one day, with the amount of eggs & larvae they produce in 1 day, resting on the peels!This was an unequal battle & I was advised by many gardening experts to throw out all my fatally infected plants & soil, & at least retrieve the pots, & clean them with hydrogen peroxide or bleach, before starting afresh with new plants & sterlized soil.It was an extremely discouraging & depressing time & I was unable to get rid of my entire cherished balcony garden that I had lovingly nourished since last couple of yrs. So as a last resort I did very deep online research on these insects & realised I had to use a 2 pronged approach to get rid of these almost-impossible to remove pests.1) One being, to attack the adult flying insects with pesticides that kill (not deter or repel) alongwith trapping the adults & killing (fumigating/baygon) them.2) At the same time, killing the thousands of invisible, unseen larvae in soil that the adults lay on a daily basis, which were hatching daily. These larvae could only be controlled by BTI (The "Israelensis" strain)After researching, I ordered this product, Moskitos, as a soil drench to control the eggs & pest larvae, alongwith ordering a spray pesticide Agro Plus, from the same seller (Both through Amazon).Initially, I only used the spray pesticide/fungicide Agro Plus on my plants for a month, (alongwith trapping the adult, flying insects & drenching the infected soil with Hydrogen Peroxide 3% solution in water with 1:4 ratio, another attack strategy) as I was apprehensive about using BTI.With just Agro Plus on the foliage & Hydrogen Peroxide in the soil, the adult insects visibly reduced initially, the plants seemed a bit healthier, but slowly the pest infestation kept increasing, till many of my plants started dying.Ultimately, I realised that I will need to address the soil eggs & larve with the correct product (BTI Israelensis), and also kill the adults which hatch daily from eggs, with strong insecticidal spray.In depression, as a last resort I finally opened this BTI product, & used it every 5-7 days, as a soil drench to kill the eggs & larvae; in conjunction with Hit/Baygon spray to kill any adult flying insects, alternating with Agro Plus insecticide spray to control any fungus on stems & top soil, which these little rascals came to eat!Since nothing happened despite using the only known & correct treatment for a full month, I was inclined to believe the user reviews that said that the seller was cheating & it was just coloured water. I was feeling so betrayed & so discouraged! As it is, my plants were almost dead.I had to leave town for 2 months so in depression, I asked my husband just to water my plants normally, knowing he had no time & interest to spray or drench my plants with pesticides.Before leaving, I did one last soil drench with this product & also, as suggested by the seller (Abulze), put 2-3 drops of BTI per plant near the stem of the plant, where the roots are.I returned home, after 2 months, expecting dead plants. Miracle!!!! I was overjoyed to see a lush garden balcony!And not a single, stupid, ridiculous fungus gnat anywhere in sight!!!:-)This product ultimately really worked! And how!The only thing is, I was losing patience as the plants were dying & in desperation, had almost given up.To get any results for fungus gnats/fruit flies invasion, one must have patience & give the product/bacteria enough time to work its magic. In my case, The BTI put in soil, made my soil, larvae free, in 2-3 long, agonizing months.In my opinion, this product is a boon for fungus gnat invasion; but it can only control the larvae & eggs hatching daily. Simultaneously, you need to kill every adult gnat flying around. Even if 1 is left, it lays 1000-2000 larvae per day, so the battle will be lost if even 1 insect is left flying around!Thus, this product (Moskitos) has to be used in conjunction with homemade fungus gnat/fruit flies traps and control agents like strong insecticidal spray that kill adults on contact. (I used Hit & Baygon)(The downside is that you absolutely cannot use any mosquito & cockroach killing spray like Hit or Baygon on sensitive plants esp with fuzzy leaves like coleous or edible plants like pudina/mint. Such sprays, if accidentally sprayed directly on leaves, will kill these plants with soft, sensitive leaves & contaminate edible leaves.)I am sorry that I doubted the seller in my time of crisis. BTI Israelensis is the only known control agent for fruit flies/fungus gnats & Abulze sellers definitely are selling a genuine product in Moskitos, as I found out firsthand.If you have a fungus gnat/fruit fly invasion in your garden or are tackling mosquito or other larvae problems in water or soil, I personally would highly recommend this product.I would say most products on Amazon would be genuine. We as customers need to identify our garden pest/disease correctly & accurately by researching on the net & should order the right pesticide for that exact pest or disease, rather than getting discouraged or blaming the seller.I would also like to thank Abluze seller & his team for prompt & regular responses to our queries on Amazon as well as responses to mails through Amazon.Your product rocks!!! A BIG thank you!!!:-)- A determined pest demolisher!

Good one...

Reading few reviews i ordered this product to treat soil infestation feom flee larvaes. I desolved this product and used it to water the plant buttt .....the very next day all my plats had fungus developed on top of it. And plant leaves turned yellow.... Im heart broken and super scared for my plants. If anyone had a solution please suggest.

Used it in plant vases at home as per the recommended dosage, but still found live mosquito larvae. Have had to increase the dosage considerably to be effective

I ordered this product because I read that BTI works great against fungus gnats in the soil of potted plants. I have been using it for a month now and so far, it does seem to work in reducing fungus gnat infestation. The way I use it is to drop a few drops in 3-4 litres of water and let it sit for a day before using it to water my plants. And I do this EACH time I have to water my plants. My only complaint is that I ordered two of these but I only got one, but amazon was quick to refund me for the missing item.

I have been using this mosquito larvae control product for the past few months but have not consistently observed the claimed results. While there are occasional reductions in mosquito populations when used as recommended, the effectiveness falls short of the advertised claims.It's unclear whether the product is fully effective, as the results have been inconsistent. For those interested in trying it out, it may be worth a test, but I would advise managing expectations based on my experience.

If anybody is looking to get rid of water mosquito then do get it. It works like magic but only problem is it is a bit costly when compared with frequency of use.

Did work, reduced mosquitos by almost 80 to 90% for couple of days.
