Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew Concentrate is labeled for control of moths in general as well as several specific species. Keep in mind that this active ingredient is not an instant knockdown since this is a natural bacteria ingredient. If you need faster knockdown while spraying, then you may consider using Ferti-Lome Triple Action instead.
Per the label instructions you need to wait 4 days in between the last application of Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew Concentrate for Cabbage.
You can safely apply the Horticultural Oil 14 days after an application of the Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew Concentrate. While there is not a set time listed on either product label, most reapplications or rotations of chemicals with horticultural oil, take place 14 days apart for active insect infestations.
The Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew Concentrate can not be used in any form of fogger and is not for controlling mosquitoes at all. Fogging for mosquitoes with appropriate products will usually only provided temporary relief the day you fog but nothing beyond that timeframe. Residual spray products that last on the surface after drying will give you a more continuous approach to controlling the mosquito populations. You can see all the pro tips and products in our Mosquito Control Guide.
According to the product label, Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew Concentrate should be applied when listed pests are present, with repeat applications being made as indicated in the Home Gardens section of the label. As application intervals for olive trees are not specified on the label, you should either contact your local extension office for treatment guidance, or you may contact the manufacturer directly with product questions here.
Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew Concentrate is made from an ingredient called Spinosad, which is a naturally occurring bacterial used to control many chewing worms and other pests from damaging the plants. It should not burn plants if used at the correct use rates per the Product Label instructions for that plant, and when applied at temperatures under 85 degrees. This is typically best done in early mornings or late evenings.
Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew Concentrate should be used within 24 hours of mixing and should not be stored longer than that. In the original bottle it will have a shelf life of 3-5 years if stored in a cool dry place away from extreme temperatures.
While there is no set restriction we can find on the label stating to not mix those two, it is not common practice to apply a copper fungicide along with a product like Spinosad. It is more common for those spraying for insects and disease spray them separately to avoid any accidental phytotoxicity.
