Insecticide and Fungicide Choices for Nepenthes and Sarracenia

For thrips and fungus: Acephate (Orthene) or imidacloprid (Bayer) for insects; sulfur-based fungicide preventatively, tebuconazole (Bayer) or chlorothalonil (Daconil) for active infections. Bayer rose products combine both. Neem works but slower. Follow labels; these plants tolerate standard rates.

Spray intervals per product label. Rotate chemistries to prevent resistance. If a fungicide is safe for orchids, it's likely safe for Nepenthes. Mancozeb safety unknown—test on one plant first.
