Doubletree Cedar Granules Insect Repellent for Mosquitoes, Fleas & Ants, 16 qt

"Yeehaw! Here's to hopin' this'll knock back the spider mites and discourage those rabid squirrels of destruction. This stuff has very consistent texture -nothing over pea sized and a smallish amount of dust in the bottom- so it was very easy to spread. It smells amazing. I am using it in my garden but I could see using it on a lawn or in houseplants just for the smell. This is an easy choice 'cause I'm pretty sure the blueberries I'm wanting to protect will love the acid of the cedar either way. Hopefully the spider mites from the nearby azaleas will be less likely to make the leap over to them... and those squirrels will be less likely to mindlessly destroy their roots... or any of the number plants they've dug around just today. I filled their little dugouts, and maybe they think twice next time or at least get a splinter for their trouble. 😆 We'll see if it keeps those pesky pests at bay. But, certainly can't lose for a fragrant mulch.

I added a teaspoon or so to each of my Hoya plants to see if it repels mites. I have some little mesh bags I'm going to fill to put in with my wool blankets and wool coat to keep moths away. I also applied it around my flowerbeds. i'm confident it will work on ants, fleas, spiders… we used to cut down cedar trees in the pasture then put a log in our garage, henhouse and shed to repel these pests and it did. Too soon to determine if this particular product works, but it smells good and the other reviews were good. A little pricey.
