Spinosad is used as a nerve agent...causes paralysis in insects........it's not a form of neem oil , which is extracted from tree.

Yea , that " spinosad " is a treasure........Let's see...it kills honey bees and other beneficial insects and pest predators , toxic to aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates, dogs, birds.........listed as " not likely a carcinogen " ( that's comforting )......and oh yeah...hasn't been any studies on smoking it.......do you know what the products of combustion are ?

All this is why you don't use it within a month of harvest. Apply it, let it do its job, then wash it away. Never said it was safe to consume, but using it this early and proper cleanup will eliminate it in your final product while eliminating your pests.

I've heard wetting agents help with some pests but I've no experience.

..................................well , that's probably a good idea. I'm debating with a crowd that sprays buds with many different dangerous concoctions. In addition, I never said that you said jack!
