It is 40% nicotine concentrate.
Nicotine really is a great natural pesticide.
It's why plants evolved it.
At 40%, it'll definitely kill all your pests, including the bigger ones like your neighbors.
The tough part is to get the bugs to start smoking
Is that why tobacco plants produce nicotine in the first place?
Can confirm, grasshoppers are voracious, opportunistic terrorists and yet, will barely nibble a tender tobacco leaf before quickly moving on to something else.
It's amazing humanity has survived. So many old products were like "Here's some concentrated poison. Spread it in your house, on your food, and in the air you breathe. It also makes a great toothpaste and eyeliner!"
And the longer we're alive we realise how much it affected us.
The next big one (assuming we survive climate change) will probably be the millions of ICE vehicles just driving around where we live and work.
I mean this isn’t really poison tho. It’s just nicotine which is a natural plant product specifically evolved as a pesticide.

That’s one way to get rid of scabs and ticks I suppose.
Is this how we were originally supposed to get Tomacco?
FYI: Drenching - administering of drug to an animal, usually by force
They're gonna get that sheep absolutely wrecked on vape juice.
Dried and shredded: perfectly safe
Boiled and concentrated: lethal poison
Can I smoke this ?
