    Great. Natural.

    This product worked wonderfully. I only wish it would last a bit longer. In southern Louisiana mosquitos are a year-round issue, so this is gonna get pricey. Thanks for a great, natural, safe product!

    Useless

    By Brian on 08/31/2018

    I followed the directions on the bottle to the letter and this product had absolutely no effect. A couple of hours later, after the sun went down, I sat outside in the treated area and was bitten 3 times within 10 minutes. For context, I do not have standing water on my property and do not live in a wooded area where you would expect an abundance of mosquitoes. I tried this product because it contains natural oils instead of chemicals - I hate to say this but, chemicals work better.

    Bonide Mosquitoe Beater

    By Cavin on 08/18/2023

    Mosquitoes are not in my yard after spraying one bottle on my city-size back yard. Nice not to be bringing mosquitoes into the house when I go out.

Q
Can Bonide Mosquito Beater Natural RTS safely be sprayed directly on my plants?

Should the spray be directed on the mulched bed ground only or should it also be sprayed on the plants themselves? I do not want to harm my exquisite garden in any way.

A

Because Bonide Mosquito Beater Natural RTS contains different plant oils, it is recommended to apply it in the early morning or in the evening, so that it has adequate time to dry before temperatures get too high.  Applying during the heat of the day can cause foliage to burn.

Q
Is Bonide Mosquito Beater Natural RTS harmful to butterflies, bees and monarch butterfly caterpillars?

I grow milkweed for the Monarchs. I usually have +25 caterpillars in my garden during the summer and fall.

A

Bonide Mosquito Beater Natural RTS is not harmful to pollinators such as bees and butterflies once the application is dry. To further reduce risk to pollinators, we recommend treating in the morning or evening when they are less active and to avoid spraying the milkweed when you observe caterpillars in that area.
