I've had success with Wilson's Woolly Whacker.
I wanted something that I didn't need to wash off when I wanted to eat.
It does not leave a residue. You have to soak the plants all over and top and bottom on leaves. It kills all insects it covers, but it won't kill any it doesn't wet.

∙ 9y agoThat's an opinion question but would depend on target pest and site to be treated. Many broad spectrum pesticides are not labelled for Spiders, also if treating ticks or bedbugs which are very hardy, there is much debate. When treating for some pests like fleas, you would want to add a growth regulator and if an indoor treatment may be limited to concentrates only since they penetrate deeper into carpet. For some pests like flies or snails, there are few choices and when there are the active ingredient despite the brand name may be the same.

When selecting an insecticide for any edibles the one thing to remember is that the word "Non-Systemic".
Non-systemic means that the insecticide will only be a coating instead of absorbed into the plant. This means you can eat the fruit/vegetables that have been sprayed after a rinsing.
Bayer, Ortho, Monterey, and Sevin (among others) make great "non-systemic"insecticides.
Happy Gardening,
Coach Dave

∙ 7y agoInsectaries, natural enemies, and row covers are the options that cultivators use in organic gardens for insects. Insect-friendly corridors ensure that beneficial predators have food, meeting places, and shelter for environmental balance between predators such as ladybugs and prey such as aphids. Row covers serve to protect edible, ornamental and wildflowering plants that do not constitute part of the insectaries.
