How much of the Advanced is used compared to the Original formula? of Bayer Tree & Shrub insect control?
767782
I have not used the original formula before. I understood that it was the same 1 ounce per 1 inch circumference, only the formula lasted a full twelve months, rather than the shorter duration of the original formula. Sorry.

No, they are strictly fertilizer. For insect prevention, we bought Bayer Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed. Supposed to be guaranteed to keep the plants bug free for a year.

Hi Frank, I'm afraid I don't know. I was recommended this Bayer product for Juniper mite and Juniper scale insect and it works really well for those, better than any English product I have used. Best wishes, Sally.

I don't know the specifics, but I use the gallon size, diluted as specified around a tulip tree approximately 24" in diameter and it kills out the aphids for the entire year.

I use this to protect 20 majestic green/white ash trees from the emerald ash borer on my property and some lovely Purple Autumn ashes on the hospital property where I work. If you get on the Bayer website and pull up the PDF info file it will give you more information. I hate to have to use an insecticide because I am using it in my wildlife reserve. The alternative is to loose all ashes in this area. To save yourself money, if you need this for the EAB, I am told to wait until it is sighted within 15 miles of your property. Hope this helps you.

I have been using this product on trees and shrubs in my yard for the past 8 years on maple, ash, and rose bushes. It has effectively controlled the emerald ash borer on the ash, and scale on the rose bushes and the maples. The borer has been killing ash trees in our area for years and this product so far has protected the ash trees well.

Not an issue for me in Michigan. But has worked on all insects in a very damp basement & outdoors. No residue so I use it on main living as well. The best results so far after 5 yrs of use! No ordor, dries quickly. Do not try Bayer it's horrible!

Yes, I have and it worked great. I would recommend using a hgher concentration than on the bottle-- 3 tbls per gallon, not 2. Also, be sure to wet tops and undersides of leaves and you will probably have to reapply to make sure they stay controlled. Lots of luck-- squash bugs are tough to eradicate.

Tommy, I wish I could answer your question. All I can tell you is that I started using the product two years ago on the advise of an arborist. I had a "sick" lace bark elm and a crape myrtle that was infested with spiders. All the trees had minor infestations of one sort or another. I treated all my elm and crape myrtle trees with the easy to use Bayer granule product and had excellent results. In fact, I was surprised at the effectiveness. The label does say for use on mealy bugs and other insects. I'd call Bayer at 1-877-229-3724 and discuss your issues with their customer service. This is the time of year to get in done. I did mine about two weeks ago. All my trees and shrubs are looking great! Good luck. Tommy, I wish I could answer your question.

active ingredient is 'imidacloprid', I did not copy %, although it is in the 4% range I believe. Several of my pine trees were oozing sap, the nursery says caused by pitch moth. It lays eggs in bark of tree, larvae hatch and bore into tree, You spray this insecticide solution around base of tree, roots absorb it and it is penetrates entire tree killing larvae. I only recently treated tree so have no recommendation at this time. BAR

I had the same question and actually called Bayer. They couldn't answer either. I have a potted gardenia that I started from a cutting; it attracts scale like crazy especially over the winter. I ended up diluting the Bayer's by 50% and trying that. It didn't do any damage at least right away that I could see. Loved what it did on my garden plants - great on my roses and phlox here in the Mid-Atlantic region after a mild winter (when every disease and pest comes back with a vengeance.) Reordered it right away when it went on sale at the end of the season.

You can - at least you could when I did it. I checked the concentrations on the labels and they were the same, so I poured the concentrate into the hose sprayer and sprayed. To verity - you can go to the Bayer website and find the products labels. Make sure the concentration of the ingredients is the same in both products. If the 704140 is the same, you can do it. If the 704140 is stronger, you can dilute with water and then use it. If it's weaker, you still can use it but might get poor results.

I would call Bayer. If I'not mistaken it will kill St. Augustine. It didn't wok for me on crabgrass or carpet grass. Just made it sick for a while after 2 applications then came back with a vengeance.
