Thuricide® BT Caterpillar Control – OMRI-Approved Organic Pest Solution

Protect your garden the natural way with Thuricide® BT, an OMRI-approved caterpillar and worm control used by organic growers nationwide. This liquid Bacillus thuringiensis formula targets destructive lepidoptera larvae while remaining safe for people, pets, beneficial insects, and pollinators.

Thuricide® BT is a biological insecticide based on the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (var. kurstaki), also known as BT. It is specifically designed to control caterpillars and butterfly or moth larvae that feed on plant leaves.
CONTAINS: Bacillus Thuringiensis in liquid form

  • Cabbage looper 
  • Imported cabbageworm 
  • Tobacco hornworm
  • Orange dog (swallowtail Caterpillar)

Once ingested, BT affects only caterpillars—not bees, birds, or humans.
