    Q
    Will the OMRI Natural Insect Control Kit kill my bees?
    A
    The Natural insecticide products within this kit are not selective so if a bee were to land on a surface you sprayed it on it would likely kill them. The best tips we can offer to have the product not affect the bees would be to spray late in the afternoon when the bees are not active and have gone back to the hive for the day and try to avoid spraying directly over blooms.

    Q
    Does the OMRI Natural Insect Control Kit kill ticks?
    A list of the 10 most common pests would help. You kinda need to know what things an insecticide kills before you buy it. I can't seem to find that listed anywhere, maybe like two bugs listed. We are trying to keep ticks away due to Lyme disease.
    A

    Yes, the products inside the OMRI Natural Insect Control Kit are labeled for ticks. They can be applied outdoors in the areas where ticks would be, such as wooded areas.
