Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
Trying to be responsible, I purchased the EcoSmart at a local mass-market merchant to reduce garden pests. I sprayed at dusk when the sun was not so hot and to to avoid possible foliage damage. I was trying to spray just the ground, but the sub-par spray nozzel shoots every which way. I am no a rookie at this, I have been gardening for years. The next day EVERY SINGLE PLANT HAD BROWN AND WHITE MAKRS ALL OVER THE LEAVES. Some were just laying on the ground. My gorgeous garden WAS RUINED WITH JUST ONE LIGHT APPLICATION. I tried rinsing all the plants individually that morning and several times thereafter. NO luck. It ruined the butterfly bush, it ruined the coneflowers, it ruined the basil, it ruined the parsley, it ruined the dill, it ruined the cilantro, it ruined the coral bells, it ruined the lillies, it runined the impatience, it ruined the hostas, it ruined the lambs' ear, it ruined the spiderwort, it ruined the vinca, it ruined the hydrangeas, it ruined the petunias, it ruined the phlox, it ruined the hollyhocks and the cosmos...need I go on? Hundreds if not thousands of dollars worth of plants and hard work ruined with one application. I didn't even use half the bottle on my 2000 sq. ft. garden. Repeated calls to customer service...messages left as they DO NOT ANSWER THEIR PHONES EVER.... states they will get back to you in 48 hours. HAHAHAH. Still waiting. Meanwhile, my garden looks like a wall of locust came through. Wish I could give negative stars for the product AND for the customer service. And for the record, it smells a lot like citronella to me. So if you want something that lets bugs live and turns your garden to a whithering embarassment, then EcoSmart is for you. Also, I read and re-read the label and NOWHERE DOES IT SAY IT DAMAGES PLANTS.... this makes me pretty sure their claims about being safe for kids and pets is also totally bogus.
