What Customers Are Saying

The product was generally effective in controlling various garden pests, though some users found the application process messy and uneven. While it worked well for many common issues, a few customers felt it was not effective enough against certain problems like spider mites and fungal gnats. Overall, the product appears to be a suitable natural solution for managing various plant-damaging insects, but the application method may require some experimentation to achieve the desired results.

Easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bug dust was easy to use. The packaging was easy to open. I sprinkled it in my many flower beds. I was hoping it would help with the weeds, but it just helped with the bugs.

Very effective for spider mites and other pests

Would Recommend

Had a serious spider mite issue in my garden and had tried two other products when I bought this. The mites were gone within a week after dusting my plants. Didn't love the look of the dust all over the plants, but I did love the way it worked.

Maybe Only Works on Some Bugs?

Would Not Recommend

I purchased this as an economical method to control the monarch caterpillars that destroy my milkweed year around. It didn't work at all. The caterpillars ate right through a thorough coating of this insecticide dust.

Easy application

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't used Captain Jacks dust yet, but I buy the sprays each year. I like how this dust is easy to apply and spread without a lot of mess. Definitely don't do it on a windy day. So far its protecting my strawberry crop and I hope to keep the pests away and get to my strawberries in the Spring before they do!

Handy dispenser lid

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used this brand in my garden for years and have always been pleased. I like this particular bottle because it has a dual sided dispenser. I can choose how quickly the powder comes out and it gives me more control when applying to my plants.

Check that the cap seal is still attached inside.

Bottle had been opened and was about 1/2 gone.

Very good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I rated captain jack’s deadbug brew dust 5 stars. It came very well packaged, the actual bottle also turns into your duster to get the product onto your plants which also came i to the fact that it was also very economical as i didnt have to buy a duster. Best of all it worked great, it got rid of the bugs without killing my plants.

Awesome Product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this on my tropical hibiscus and gerbera daisy plants after I recently found aphids on them. I've always heard great things about Captain Jack's products and was so happy to have this available. No more aphids after 2 full treatments. I recommend this for all plant lovers.
