Hi,

I have only ever used insecticidal soap and pyrethrins on my outdoor plants. Last summer I brought the plants inside to finish up but had a mite problem. Maybe I didnt spray enough before bringing them in.

Is there a non organic spray i can use before bringing the plants indoors to flower to get rid of any bugs? Would this be considered safe once i use it before flower? Thanks for any suggestions....

True . . . . but it is deadly for cats. If you don't have cats then it will work fine as an insecticide

I don't use pyrethrin based products because of the risk to the cats.

Some dog flea/tick medicines also contain it.

Thanks, doesnt pyrethrin break down quickly? Ive read it can be used a few weeks before chopping. Might try mighty wash before bringing it inside.
