Does the job!
I’ve seen the damage box catapillar has done in my local area and it’s obvious that Xen Tari works as all our box is still in good condition. I also like the fact it isn’t harmful to other wildlife, big thumbs up from me👍Read full review

Works but.......
It's great and yes it does work but in the end you have to consider if it's worth spending so much time and effort and money each year or just getting rid of the buxus now that the blight is widespread and vicious all over UK.Read full review

Appears to be effective however the very nature of the problem makes assessment difficult. Product arrived on time.

Does the essential job perfectly. Good instructions. Easy to use. Use it every year as a precaution now because other privet hedges in nearby gardens
Does the essential job perfectly. Good instructions. Easy to use. Use it every year as a precaution now because other privet hedges in nearby gardens don’t use this magic stuff and might spread it back to mine. Mine are thriving now. Well worth it.Read full review

Straightforward purchase - thank you. Haven't started this box yet but presume that it's as effective as the prior one. I wish the manufacturer had
Straightforward purchase - thank you. Haven't started this box yet but presume that it's as effective as the prior one. I wish the manufacturer had continued to sell these in the 1g sachets (the perfect size for the small amount of box in my garden) but they now only do 3g so I do my best to measure out one third of each sachet and try to keep the rest airtight/watertight until the next use.Read full review

Not impressed
I used this as instructed but I’m not sure if it actually works as I collected over 250 live caterpillars of all sizes and some crystallises over a number of weeks on my small box hedge and only found about 8 black shrivelled caterpillars which I presume are the ones that were killed by the treatment.Read full review

It worked
I have given five stars as it has got rid of the box moth which had eaten its way through two topiary buxus. They looked awful so used two satchets per litre and have applied twice so far and it appears to have worked. I am waiting for new growth to come through but in the meantime all sign of the moth/caterpillars/eggs have gone :) In regards to value for money - this is an expensive item but it would have cost more to replace the topiary trees.Read full review

The only way to control box moth.
There is no alternative to this product. The moth is so destructive and left unchecked can strip a box hedge of every leaf in less than a month. So the cost of this product is almost academic. The only other alternative is to pull the hedge out and replace it with a different plant, which would be far more expensive. Read full review
