Bacillus Thurengiensis
I bought BT early this year and would like to use it now. Does anyone
know the shelf life on this stuff? I could call the mfgr. but would like to apply it today when I have a chance. Thanks in advance. |

Bacillus Thurengiensis
Google: bacillus thuringiensis shelf life; 25,400 hits
http://www.ext.colostate.edu/pubs/Insect/05556.html This is a really good article and is worth reading all of it. "Bt-based products tend to have a shorter shelf life than other insecticides. Manufacturers generally indicate reduced effectiveness after two to three years of storage. Liquid formulations are more perishable than dry formulations. Shelf life is greatest when storage conditions are cool, dry and out of direct sunlight." Al wrote: I bought BT early this year and would like to use it now.
