This insect control product is intended for control of worms (caterpillars) and other
listed insects. This product does not significantly impact predatory beneficial insects,
predatory mites, and spiders while controlling target pests. Susceptible insect pests may

National Organic Standards Board.
Captain Jack’s DEADBUG Brew® contains Spinosad “spin-OH-sid”. Spinosad is derived
from a naturally occurring soil dwelling bacterium that was collected from an abandoned
rum distillery on a Caribbean island in 1982. This unique bacterium was defined as a
new species when it was discovered and it has never been found in nature anywhere
else in the world. Since being discovered, Spinosad has become a pesticide used by
agriculture world-wide in the production of organic produce. Today, Spinosad is available
to the homeowner in Captain Jack’s DEADBUG Brew® Spinosad Ready-to-Use.
