M-Pede® Insecticidal Soap - 2.5gal - OMRI Listed®

M-Pede® Insecticidal Soap 2.5gal — OMRI Listed® | Potassium Salts of Fatty Acids | Insecticide, Miticide & Fungicide

M-Pede is a natural insecticidal soap that provides effective contact control of soft-bodied insects, mites, and powdery mildew throughout all life cycle stages. The active ingredient — Potassium Salts of Fatty Acids — disrupts insect and mite cell membranes on direct contact, causing rapid dehydration and death without systemic chemistry or persistent residues. The same mode of action also disrupts powdery mildew on treated leaf surfaces, making M-Pede a true 3-in-1 contact control product. OMRI Listed for organic use. The 2.5-gallon commercial size supports large greenhouse and nursery spray programs.
