Hydrogen Peroxide as a soil drench to kill pests

18 years ago

Has anyone ever used hydrogen peroxide to kill pests that live in the soil of houseplants? I am not concerned about killing off the good bacteria as I use Grozyme, which acts like good bacteria, but isn't destroyed by H2O2.

I work in a garden center and have had a few customer's ask how to get rid of soil pests such as centipede type things, fungus gnats, and these unknown yellow round clusters of eggs. I have recently become interested in H2O2 for various reasons and thought that it might kill the pests.

Thanks in advance for any advice or comments you may have!
