Yes, use 1 tsp per 2o oz water spray on the leaves. Also kills spiders, ants etc. BTW, simple green also works this way. good luckThe instruction sheet has many ideas for it's useage.

Yes, just don't mix it very strong. Otherwise Bronner's soap works well too.

Edible plants? I'd go with food grade diatomaceous earth instead, apply a light dusting.

The directions for use are very simple. Hang the egg cases under a leaf or other overhanging structure in your garden. However caveat emptor - the egg cases I purchased never hatched. Disappointing since the ladybird beetles and nematodes I also bought worked great. Never saw an aphid or grub during the entire growing season.

They work to control the adults. Seem to work best if set around the base of the plants. Predatory Nematodes will kill the larva in soil in a week. I use the combination of the two.

I've used it in the morning on my roses and apple espalier when they seem least stressed from heat. The apple espalier had flowered and the new green leaves were showing powdery mildew. It seems to have eliminated the disease.

Yes this product does take care of them as well as mealy bugs etc. I have found that sprinkling the product onto the soil and then watering it in works quite well. I had mites as well as aphids on a hibiscus and it worked to eradicate them all.

I normally continue to spray lightly one to two times after the apparent infestation has ceased.My reasoning is that some pests continue tosurvive hidden under leaves etc.. Aphids are tricky to eradicate especially if the weather is cooler or the plants do not receive a fair amountof sun. You need to keep a eye on new growth also, as this seems to be where pests love to congregate.

It works very well killing and discouraging the growth of many invasive plants on our property once we cut and apply the solution. My only problem with the Bonide solution it does not help destroy the root or stump for easy removal as well as the Greenlight solution does.

Well, no, probably not. You should look into an actual repellant, like the type designedto keep pets out of flower beds. Amazon stocks several of these.

Hi Ja - I've planted several new roses, about 1 month ago and bought the Bayer Advanced 2 in 1 systemic.Early days still, but container states for Roses and Flowers..But contains strong fertilizer and Aphid protection for 8 weeks. Not use on veg or near Ponds and wash hands after use..pretty potent stuff, I.m assuming.Sorry I can't help more - but I was impressed by another product of Bayer and I'm thinking 'Give it a try' Maybe tell you more about performance. a few more months down the line.Regards and Good Luck ..Linda x

I didn't have any problems when using this around my plants. I used it both around my flower garden and my vegetable garden. It does not kill all bugs but it does significantly reduce the number of bugs you will have.

It would depend on the type of flower / the leaves on the flowering plant. It works just like other selective weed killers that focus on a broad leaf (not a grass type of leaf). This is different from those other weed killers, this focuses on grass like leaves & plants. It should be safe for traditional types of flowers, however I would not trust it on a flowering plant that has grass type leaves. For example I have some muscari or something like that. The leaves are similar to grass but has a flower. I believe it would kill that type of plant / flower. If your flowers have thin long leaves, then call Ortho / download the data sheet. Else, if the flowers are like roses, I have never had a problem with this product.

I would imagine so. I had aphids & whiteflies, which infestation completely disappeared after spraying my plants a couple of times per week for two weeks.

I've had great success using it in early spring. This is the BEST product ever for keeping our crape myrtles free of crape myrtle aphids. Have not had to deal with that problem since I started using the Bayer Advanced product. Best to know the application AMOUNTS you'll need for the number and size of your plants. I had to buy more the first time I used it.

I use it on a low pressure (30psi) system and 1/4 inch lines. Works okay and keeps my orchids blooming and healthier.

I don't know about this particular infestation, but I have used the product on my orchids, over several months, and they are thriving. The fungus gnats, my original concern, are well controlled.

The bottle says nothing about slugs or snails, lists the following: thrips, katydid, leafminers, worms, catepillars, borers, cabbage worm, ...... I don't believe this is for lawn insect control, mostly for fruit trees and ornamentals?
