Spinosad is a natural insecticide. Spinosad is a relatively new insecticide that is made up of two complex organic compounds, spinosyn A (right) and spinosyn D. These compounds are produced by certain microbes that were first discovered in soil found at an abandoned rum factory. Spinosad is a broad-spectrum, organic insecticide. The term broad-spectrum means that it is toxic to a wide variety of insects. It is, however, relatively non-toxic to mammals and beneficial insects.
