Since I'm in the basement where I have some spiders and other bugs, I want to be preventative about caring for my AV's and Streps. I bought this product in Home Depot- do you think it's ok for the plants and effective at keeping away mealys and aphids?

Here's the label:

Active ingredient- potassium salts of fatty acids.

Kills adelgids, aphids, earwigs, grasshoppers, lacebugs, mealybugs, mites, plant bugs, leafhoppers, psyllids, sawfly larvae, scale insects, tent caterpillars, thrips, whitefly, woolly aphids and other listed pests.

For use on vegetables, fruit and nut trees, flowers, in homes and gardens... etc. May be used up to the day of harvest
