  • Biological insecticide using Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) to control caterpillars and leaf-feeding worms.
  • Effective on fruits, vegetables, shade trees, and ornamentals.
  • Kills pests such as bagworms, tent caterpillars, gypsy moths, cabbage loopers, and tomato hornworms.
  • Safe for use up to the day of harvest and non-toxic to humans, pets, and beneficial insects when used as directed.

Fertilome Caterpillar Killer Insecticide with Bt provides targeted, biological control over destructive caterpillars and leaf‑chewing worms. Powered by naturally occurring Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), this formula disrupts feeding behavior in a wide variety of damaging larvae while remaining safe for edible crops, ornamental plants, and shade trees. Its organic‑friendly mode of action ensures minimal impact on beneficial insects, making it an excellent solution for gardeners seeking effective pest suppression without harsh chemicals.


Target Pests

Controls bagworms, tent caterpillars, gypsy moths, cabbage loopers, imported cabbage worms, tomato hornworms, elm spanworms, spring and fall cankerworms, and fall webworms.

Active Ingredient

Contains Bacillus thuringiensis subspecies kurstaki strain SA‑12, providing biological action against leaf‑feeding larvae.

Plant & Crop Use

Suitable for fruits, vegetables, melons, tomatoes, broccoli, leafy greens, shade trees, and ornamental plants.

Application Rates

Fruits & vegetables: Mix 1.5 fl. oz. per 3 gallons of water (1 tbsp per gallon).
Shade trees & ornamentals: Mix 2 fl. oz. per 3 gallons of water (4 tsp per gallon).

How It Works

When caterpillars consume treated foliage, they stop feeding almost immediately, reducing plant damage before dying shortly thereafter.

Harvest Safety

May be applied up to and including the day of harvest on edible crops.

Environmental Safety

Safe for humans, pets, birds, earthworms, honeybees, and ladybugs when used as directed.

Package Size

16 fl. oz. liquid concentrate bottle.
