Pest control!

Hey. Everyone! I'm doing my first outdoor grow everything is going good except last week I found some budworms hiding under leaves so I picked every single worm infested leaf off and sprayed em hard with my magic elixer but I'm getting some btk tomorrow just wanted to know if btk will work against worms the garden. Store person didn't have a fucking clue about anything and said "btk is all we have and iunno what it does" soo yeah.. And now onto ants!!! Little cunts are everywhere (haven't seen any actually ON the plants yet) but I'd like to take care of them before it becomes a problem so anybody have any home remedies ? And same with grasshoppers I've. Been seeing more and more of them just the very small ones but I'd also like to take care of it before it becomes serrious so I hope sombody out there can clear up my questions!! Sorry for spelling issues doing this on my phone is no fun at all lol... Thanks in advanced!!

Bacillus thuringiensis (or Bt)... Thuricide. Its used specifically for worms and moths...etc

thats what im using at max dosage, spray them down once a week.... also dusted with sevin dust(only use in veg)

Thanks nick I had some safers bt catapiller killer from a friend but I lost it lol I'm just wondering if btk is the same thing? And any thoughts on ants/grasshoppers? (Home mixes untill next payday)

I've heard borax works for ants, but how would a guy go about using it for that? My girls are in the ground so I don't really want any running into my roots witha a heavy rain or something, any feedback?!?!
I'm also going to pick up some neem when I can for the grasshoppers I figured that one out bbut I'm still stuck with this btk thing is it the same at regular bt or is it a fungicide?

Ants arent a problem. The worms and hoppers are tho. I suggest going to home depot or your local nursery and get some organic plant pesticides.

Hey guys, picked up some safers btk ill give them a squirt tonight but I also got this stuff called sevin and the directions don't say a fucking thing literally but the dude at the stroe said it would stop grasshoppers so my. Question is, can sombody with experience using sevin tell me how much to mix with 1L? Or if it does anything to grasshoppers

Not necessarily true. The ants do tend to get stuck to the buds.
