Can you advise me as to how I should best use this product? And what I should use it on? The rep at the company adivsed this was a good product for most GH pests, also suggested it was a good perimeter spray for common ants, etc. If it is contact only, then I am assuming that is a waste of time. I chose this product as I have to small Yorkies and it is suppose to be fairly pet friendly. I never let the pups out after I have sprayed anything until I know everything is dry. I did look at the Red Leaf Hibiscus as you suggested. This is a picture, (sorry so fuzzy) of one of the lower leaves. It has one fly on it, and I am assuming those white specs are the eggs. I am going to remove the bottom third of all the leaves from the hibiscus, and many of the lower ones on the Plumerias, then spray with Neem. Should I increase the spraying cycle to every 4 or 5 days? It has also been suggested that I try spraying with a baby shampoo mixture, 1-2 Tbls/gal. Thanks again for your help. Nautical |
