The instructions for use are not on the bottle. When I peal the area where the instructions are supposed to be theres nothing underneath.
You can find the product label on the product page. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0061/1391/9089/files/pmb600-b.pdf?v=4466389311329923365
I havent used this product yet, but I'm anxious to try it. It had been sitting in my father's storage for at least a year. As I went to peel back direction lable, its stuck to the bottle and just rips so there is nothing I can read on how to use it, because the instructions and lable are stuck together😯😤🤔..frustrated.!-But I'll gladly give you a better review once I figure out how to use it!
How about putting the instructions on the bottle.
John, there is a flap on the back that you have to peel back to see the instructions.
From the Internet: "For best results, use freshly mixed solution. Mix one part concentrate with 50 parts water, or 2.5 fl. oz per gallon unless otherwise noted. Use soft water whenever possible. NOTE: Do not use on new transplants, newly rooted cuttings or plants stressed by drought. Avoid application when temperature exceeds 90°F. Insect Killing Soap Concentrate may be used up to and including day of harvest, and is useful as a component of Integrated Pest Management "
Instructions are on the back of the bottle, you have to peel off first layer to release the instructions.
