It takes a little time for the plant to absorb the poison into all it's leaves so you still need to cut back heavy mealy or scale infestations or clean them up with alcohol or even orthene spray first. Then use the Bayer spray every 3 months or so to prevent the infestations. Working good for me down here in buggy south Florida.

I've been wondering. I have the Bayer 3 in 1 for roses. Due to it having fertilizer in it, I have to use it in a VERY low concentration to keep the ppm down around 150. Does that low of an imidacloprid concentration even do anything?
