A quick WARNING before we jump in > Insecticidal Soap (that's this product), is NOT the same as dish soap or castile soap. Do NOT use dish soap or castile soap on your plants! More about that coming up. Yates Natrasoap IS safe to use on your plants, just read the label and directions below first...


Plant safe insecticidal soap


Yates Nutrasoap is a fast-acting, broad spectrum insecticide that is safe and gentle for most plants, including houseplants. This is a natural, certified organic concentrate you simply mix with water and spray on plants to kill soft-bodied plant pests on contact. Being soap, it doesn't have the same precautions as most other pesticides, but there are still some things to know before you spray (coming up below)...


Which pests does Natrasoap work on?


Insecticidal soap works on soft-bodied pests. Yates lists aphids, mites and whitefly on the label.


The internet also says insecticidal soap is effective against young scale, thrips and psyllids, but same as using any product (especially any pesticide), I'd go by what the label says.


Insecticidal soap is NOT effective against hard-bodied and larger pests like mealybugs, adult scale, caterpillars, beetles, wasps or insect eggs. For mealybugs and scale, have a look at Enspray and Groventive.


Which plants can it be used on?


Always check the label before use (just in case anything changes from when I wrote this product page), but Yates Natrasoap is for use on ornamental plants (including houseplants), flowering plants, fruits and vegetables. 


If a plant is sensitive, or you're unsure, always do a test spray first. Check the directions below for more details...


Directions for use


This is the 200ml concentrate. You can also get the ready-to-use 750ml with spray bottle included (available here), if you prefer no prep, want to avoid any leftovers going to waste, and don't want to buy a spray mister separately.


TIP: For using this concentrate, you'll also want a spray mister like the Egmont 360 or Mister 360. The 360 in the name tells you they also spray upsidedown. Very handy for getting under plant leaves without tipping your plant sideways or upsidedown. 


20mls per 1 litre water


For the concentrate, mix 20mls of concentrate with 1 litre of water. Use up the mixture within 24 hours. Once mixed, safely dispose of any leftovers as it cannot be kept for use later. This 200ml concentrate makes 10 litres.


Depending on the lifecycle of the pest, check again every 1 to 2 weeks and repeat the application if needed. Keep in mind insecticidal soap works on contact when wet. That means it needs to come in contact with the pest and doesn't work when dry.


Spray on visible pests and the areas you see pest damage, including underneath leaves and on new growth where they like to feed.


Important: Read before use


Always read the label before use. Apply early morning or early evening on a cool day. Avoid applying on hot days. Keep plants out of direct sun until dry.


If the soil is dry, or the plant is under moisture stress, water as normal and wait for the plant to recover before spraying.


Do a test spray on sensitive plants first, or if you're unsure if the plant might be sensitive to insecticidal soap. Spray a small test area and wait three days before spraying the rest of the plant (provided there's no negative reaction).


Best avoided on seedlings, baby plants and cuttings. 

 

Why is insecticidal soap different from dish soap and castile soap?


There's a whole article here that breaks down the differences in more detail, but the main thing to know is yes, dish soap and castile soap can kill plant pests, but they should NOT be used on plants.


Dish soap is the biggest no of the three. It's not even soap. It's a detergent made from synthetic chemicals, surfactants and solvents, as well as bleach, dyes, fragrances, rinse aid and more. 


The same reason dish soap does a great job cutting through grease, fats and oils on your dishes, is why it should not be used on plants.


Those same harsh ingredients can strip the protective, natural layer of oils and waxes off your plants too. Leaving them without their natural defences against plant pests, fungal and bacteria diseases. Sure, it kills pests, but can also harm or kill your plants as well as allow other nasties easy access.


Castile soap IS soap, usually made from either potassium or sodium and vegetable oils, so is not as harsh as dish soap. However, castile soap still not tested as safe for use on plants and is not a tested pesticide.


If it's your only option, check you have castile soap made with potassium not sodium, and that is has nothing else added anything. I wouldn't risk it myself. Get Yates Natrasoap instead (that's the product you're on now). 


Insecticidal soap is made with potassium not sodium, and a special type of fatty acids that are gentle and safe on the majority of plants. Yates Natrasoap is a tested pesticide, and certified organic for use on ornamental plants, flowering plants, fruits and vegetables.

So close to being good
I really wanted to like this book. It had all the makings of a strong, interesting story, but the plot got so convoluted that it was hard to follow. Also, for a "badass" FMC, Milla was amazingly inept. The writing got really stilted at times too. I will probably still read the next one anyway, because I'm curious to see where the plot goes.

FASCINATING world, great characters and swoony slow burn!
House of Bane and Blood by Alexis Menard -Order and Chaos Book 1- 4.5/5⭐️ 1/3🌶️* 2/3🦋 •My Thoughts• What a RIDE! This world was absolutely fascinating with its 1920s mafia vibes meets magic. The characters and enemies to lovers storyline hooked me from the beginning - add in a marriage of convenience and a dash of mystery and I ate👏🏻it👏🏻up👏🏻. Milla’s growth was so good and I was cheering for her as she became more confident! I also loved Niko and his back story and resilience. These are imperfect characters you find easy to love, root for and I became enamored with their slow but steadfast (if reluctant) support of each other. I did find the government structure a little confusing but didn’t want to slow down enough stop and figure it out (if anyone reads it an wants to make a chart, please share it with me). This book was violent but also mesmerizing and full of hope for a better future. I loved the big family dynamics and the never ending plot twists that kept me guessing. This is a completed duology and with that ending, you BET I’m immediately reading book 2. *I rated this a 1/3🌶️ because there were only a few scenes with on page intimacy. However, I would like to note that the spice involves kink: breath play.

Top tier romantasy
I really enjoyed this book! It's everything a romantasy should be, really. The interactions between the characters was good, the world was interesting, and I liked the magic system. Slow burn was a 10/10! I really love Nico. He's so intriguing and I hope we get more of his POV in the next book. Reasons for taking off a star: 1. I didn't think the world building was set up well. I got the full picture by the end, but the author writes as if we should already understand and it was a bit confusing for quite a while. 2. Milla's characterization was inconsistent. She was wishy washy with her goals and didn't give off the bad ass vibes I think the author was aiming for. I would have also liked more showing and not telling for her background. 3. (This is me being a bit ridiculous) I didn't know if I was supposed to pronounce it as "Mih-luh" or "Mee-luh." I think the former sounds silly but my brain didn't want to read it as the latter 😅

Give me a little bit’a that Nicolai Roman Attano ANY DAY. 🥵
⭐️ 5 🌶 3 🚂 Peaky Blinders Vibes 🚂 Enemies to Lovers 🚂 Sexy + Sassy Banter 🚂 Marriage for Business 🚂 Unique Magic System 🚂 Dual POV I absolutely LOVED this book. The mafia/peaky blinders vibes — the lil’ steam punk feel mixed with magic and mayhem… add in the witty banter from Milla and Nico? ALEXIS, YOU DONE JUST ROCKED MY WORLD, FRIEND. What I Enjoyed: Nicolai. Roman. Attano.: Literally. This is all I’ve got to say to you, just read the book. The Banter: When I tell you the banter between Milla and Nico is iconic — I mean it. Scroll down for some of my favorites, but my my my, my core was HEATING and I was wriggling in my seat on the airplane, my friends. OOOOOMPH. Steampunk/ Peaky Blinders Vibes: I read this whole book with a feeling of mist on the ground, the flickering street lights, sound of a train horn, flapping of coat tails, and smell of cigarillo smoke. It was dark, broody, beautiful, and chilling. Add in a little wetness from morning dew and the scene has been set. Plot Twists & Turns: The amount of times my eyes bugged out of my head with “OMG NO WAY”, “WHAAAT”, and “BOOIIIIIII–” should almost be illegal. I didn’t see the twist at the end coming, I loved it! Brilliant! I feel like House of Bane and Blood didn’t even allow me the opportunity to guess what would happen next, because I just had no idea where Alexis would take it. Attano Family: I’m a sucker for a big family with many cousins, personalities, and a spicy Nonna. Throw in a kitchen scene or two and you’ve got me hooked. I loved the dynamic between the Attano family and how fast they came to bat for Milla. I throughly enjoyed getting to know the people behind Nicolai, and how they all support him and each other. What I Didn’t Like: The Minimal Insight on the Marchese Family: We aren’t really given much insight into the Marchese Family and Milla’s brothers. I understand this gives an ominous feel to the brothers — but I really wish we could have explored Giles and Milla’s relationship just a little bit more. I wish I understood more about the Twins than what was given. Although, I do understand the distance and the coldness, I personally just wanted a little more. Over All Thoughts The way I straight flew through this book — UGH. Adding Nico to my list of book boyfriends, and Alexis to my list of instant buy Authors. The way House of Bane and Blood is written is beautiful, it does not feel immature or overwhelming, there’s enough to keep you riveted and more and more unfolds with every chapter. Milla and Nico are a force to be reckoned with separately, but together? Indestructible! I cannot WAIT to see what happens in City of Mirth and Malice.

A Promising Start with a Complex Magic System
“House of Bane and Blood” delivers an engaging enemies-to-lovers romance wrapped in an arranged marriage trope, which was one of the strongest aspects of the book. The dynamic between Nico and Camilla was compelling, making their evolving relationship one of the highlights of the story. The plot itself was interesting and had a lot of potential. However, the complexity of the magic system was a drawback. The abundance of difficult names and terms made it challenging to fully grasp the world-building, leaving some aspects feeling more confusing than immersive. At times, it was hard to keep track of what was happening and who was who. Despite this, the book holds promise as the first installment of the series. With an intriguing setup and strong character chemistry, I’m excited to see where Book 2 takes the story. Hopefully, it will continue to build on its strengths while offering more clarity on its magical elements.
