Summit Caterpillar and Webworm Control-Hose End, 1 Qt Concentrate For Insects

We bought a bottle of this each spring for 2 consecutive years (2023-24), but that was after the moth-pocalypse that took off in '21, then accelerated exponentially in '22. We were too late before we realized that those Gypsy moths (I know they are called something else now, but... 🤷‍♀️ spongy moths? I don't remember) were literally stripping ever tree in our woods with no end in sight. The whole county, in fact, has been overrun with this scourge. It was worrisome, to say the least. We have massive mature walnuts in our front yard that are one of my very favorite parts of our home and in '22 I genuinely feared they wouldn't make it when the worms ate all the leaves off them in a matter of weeks. You could hear their droppings falling incessantly on quiet spring nights. The stuff of nightmares.Anyway, in '22 we tried sticky bands, gels and sprays... We cleaned all the leaf litter in fall. You name it. But we missed the primary window in May/June to knock them down. By '23 I was ready. We treated the trees as high as we could spray. Every tree we could reach was drenched consistently.By spring of '24 when we bought more, the population had noticably declined, but was still detrimental to the trees for sure. But we did the same, treating the trees several times at the critical instar period. The moths that came out in mid summer was nothing like the plague that swarmed us in years prior. In those first years it had been like a snowstorm in summer there were so many.Fast forward to today... June 2025. The caterpillars are gone. I haven't seen a single one this spring. Maybe there's a lonely band of rebel survivors out there plotting our trees demise, but they are keeping a low profile if so. No cocoons. No moths. Our trees are fully greened out (ignore the little branches that fell in the storm a few days back. Haven't gotten to picking them up yet). Our Norway Maple has still not quite recovered from the abuse it took - it was a moth delicacy apparently, but it is clearly making its comeback.All in all, this stuff was worth it. Yes, it took some dedication on our part to treat and repeat, as well as a lot of patience. The cure took some time to spread thru the moth population unfortunately. But it worked! My beloved walnut grove lives to see another few decades I hope.If you are on the fence about this product, try it. But be prepared to continuously apply during the critical period in your particular pest's life cycle. ID the pest, buy a sprayer and get to work. And don't just expect the worms to drop dead suddenly. Thats not how BT works. At least not for us. But it did work very well and it seems to be the perfect long term solution.

This sprayer is sooo easy to use. It is super simple to hook up and use. Simplify your task, the spray radius is perfect.

This product was easy to use and covered more than I expected. The coverage was great but gradually turn your hose on because the speed was powerful! Seemed to work well and definitely cut back on the number of bugs, we live in a very wooded area.

I received the product and used this evening. The worms were destroying our Lady of the Night or Jazmin.The only thing I should point by now, is that the instructions on the labels are difficult to read, due to small fonts.I used for just one small Jazmin tree, and stopped, but can't see how much liquid is still inside the bottle to reaply if needed

After weeks of losing kale and broccoli to those pesky worms, I had thought it was a lost cause. Until I found this. I used it once and haven’t used it since, because it works that well.As someone that is very adamant about using organic options, I sought out many things, but nothing worked. This has been a lifesaver (plant saver?) for my garden and plan to continue using it if/when those critters come back this season.The nozzle was a little finicky at first. The instructions are on the backside of the bottle’s label and I couldn’t tear it without tearing the whole label off, so I had to guess using the nozzle’s inscriptions. That got a bit annoying, but once I had it, it was so easy! Took a couple sprays with the hose and I was done for the summer.Great value for this as I only used about an eighth of the bottle in my 3’ x 7’ bed. Highly recommend this if your garden is plagued by hornworms and other pests!

To the people that said it sprayed 20 or 25 feet in the air. Mine would go about 10 feet maybe 12 stretching it.Or maybe they just don’t know what 20 or 25 feet is. When I was younger, I didnt know either. Now that I am older and wiser I know what 10 ft and 20 ft and 3O ft is at least. As far as does it work, I don’t know. I just sprayed it on the bottom branches as all the higher go. I called the professional guy to put it on now I’m out the money for it and the money I paid for a refill on it and for the professional guy to come over and spray it.Should’ve just had the guy come over and spray it, but I didn’t wanna pay 200 bucks again

Two tears ago I noticed I had a huge bagworm problem on my arborvitaes.My wife and I picked all the cocoons off in the fall when the larvae was still in the cocoon and destroyed so we thought we were ahead of it.I watch the trees the next year (last summer) and it seemed okay. Until late fall when seemingly overnight several trees had severe damage and many cocoons were visible again. I purchased this product and began spraying. I mixed into a 2 gallon handheld sprayer and sprayed every 7 to 10 days through the summer to make certain I got the worms at the right stage. Trees have nearly fully recovered and no new damage noticed.The only negative is this stuff SMELLS HORRIBLE. I spray in the morning when the winds are calm and stayed up wind. If my wife is outside when I spray it drives her inside.I also like that it claims to not harm birds since there are several birds' nests in my trees.

This item worked as promised! Just wish it could work with one treatment, due to the cost!
