Contendor Systemic Insecticide 1L RTU is a ready-to-use, water-based insecticide made particularly for home gardeners seeking reliable control of sap-sucking pests. Its systemic insecticide action means it is absorbed through the foliage and distributed throughout the plant, providing internal protection against a broad range of insects that feed on plant sap. This ensures long-lasting pest control that reaches even hidden or hard-to-spray areas, making it an essential addition to your garden care routine
Mosquito Traps
I purchased the Contendor Spray for a mild mealy bug infestation on my Ballerina Apple tree. Despite following the instructions given to a “T” & using two entire spray containers and fully & carefully saturating the whole tree top to bottom twice (including under leaves), both times the mealy bug infestation came back worse after each treatment. I persisted with the second treatment thinking it might take more that one treatment to get the infestation under control, but unfortunately the spray had little effect on deterring the mealy bugs, it definitely did not kill them on contact and in fact after the second spray the infestation appeared worse that it had been before the very first spray. I ended up having to spot kill the bugs with isopropyl alchohol spray which fortunately has worked with no apparent harm to the tree.
Perfect service . This product has been amazing for my pest problem after trying so many others . Highly recommend .
Order sent promptly
Product arrived in goid condition, on time, thank you team
I am leaving another review. I bought many bottles of Contendor and spray our potted pine trees multiple times. (It is hard not to breathe it in, even when wearing P2 face mask). Giant conifer aphids were hardly deterred. Minor change but it’s unsustainable. They were like an army circling the perimeter of the pots and our trees suffered from fungal disease due to the sticky aphid residue. Not purchasing again. Also, the last batch I purchased had leaked all throughout the box, with no apology. I’m trying pellets on the soil which have great reviews.
Have used it and works great,
An absolute lifesaver for. our pine trees. Aphids multiply extremely quickly, reducing the leaves to sticks (in places) and taking over the plant. A thorough spray of Confidor kills them! Just spray leaves and give a second spray a few days later. The trees will be rid of aphids entirely. We have 7 pine trees (about 2m tall) and a 1Ltr bottle lasts the two sprays (aphid free for about 5 months). Totally worth it.
My indoor plants have a spider mite problem that I’ve been tackling for weeks. This product definitely kills the buggers, but I’m finding I need to spray more often than directed. I have found that a thorough spray of the entire plant, followed by a spray of the soil every 3-5 days is the best way to control spider mites. Still haven’t been able to eradicate them but their numbers are getting smaller and smaller. Just requires VERY regular use of systemic insecticide.
Great service with fast postage!
