Question
I was checking out my plants yesterday and discovered that a few of the leaves on some of my pitcher plants were being munched on my tiny little caterpillars. I got rid of the bugs temporarily but was wondering if there was a safe insect repellant spray to use on carnivorous plants. I have a variety of pitcher plants, flytraps and sundews in my collection. Any advice would be great.

Answer
Hi Miguel,

Bayer Rose and Flower spray has proven to be very effective and safe.  I've used it on all three safely.  It contains a systemic insecticide (imidacloprid) that provides a month of protection.  Just be sure to follow label directions.

Good Growing!
