    Q
    Will Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and shrub Protect and Feed II protect against gypsy moths?
    I have 7 large oak trees and the gypsy moths are starting to take a hold in our neighborhood. Haven't made their way to our property yet but I'm worried I won't be so lucky next year. Looking for a systemic as spraying 80-100 foot trees isn't something I can do. The trees all range in circumference of between 70-90 inches.
    A

    Yes, Bayer Advanced 12 month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II is labeled for caterpillars (including gypsy moths).  Measure the distance in inches around the tree trunk at approximately 4.5 feet from ground level. This measurement is the amount of ounces of product to add to 1 gallon of water.  If the tree measures greater than 50 inches around, pour the required product into 2 gallons of water.

Use instructions: Trees: 1 oz. for every inch of distance around trunk in no less than 1 quart of water per inch of trunk diameter to make sure its sufficiently moved through the soil.

    Q
    How close to a fruit bearing tree (fig) is it safe to apply Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed - Concentrate?
    I have an aphid infested crepe myrtle w/in 15 ft. of my fig. The branches/leaves of the trees touch. The fig is well established and the crepe is 3 years old. I've applied malathion, but it didn't do the job (or they came back really fast) and I can't reach the top leaves of the crepe.
    A

If the product accidently gets into the tree or is used around it, we would not recommend consuming any fruit produced from that tree for at least 12 months.

    Q
    Will Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II - Concentrate prevent bagworms on ornamental junipers or arbor vitaes?
    A

    Systemic insecticides such as Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II Concentrate will not prevent bagworms because they do not feed on trees in a way that will allow them to ingest the active ingredient. The most popular product for bagworm control is Talstar P. Be sure to apply before the insects form their protective bags in late summer.

  • Asked by Carl from Bloomfield Hills, Mi
    05/19/2014
    Q
    Do I mix one ounce of the concentrate for every inch of tree diameter in how much water?
    A

    Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II - Concentrate is mixed at 1 oz per inch of trunk cirumference (not diameter).

    The amount of water that is used will vary depending on soil conditions and volumes that are easy for applicators to use. The minimum amount of water that should be used is 1 pint per foot of shrub height (or inch of trunk diameter for trees) but you may use 1 quart -1 gallon of water per foot of height (or inch of trunk diameter for trees) as well. Denser soils such as clay do not accept water as readily, so the lower volume of water is suggested.  Since sandy soils can accept more water, using the higher volume of water is preferred. After the soil drench has been applied you should water it in with at east 1/2 inch of water.

    Note: Water simply acts as a carrier and it is important that even distribution of the product is achieved. Thus, more water may be used if the applicator feels runoff will not occur and proper penetration of the root zone is achieved. Insecticides applied to the soil are taken up by the roots and translocated throughout the tree or shrub. Root/soil drenches offer the advantage of requiring no special equipment to apply (other than a bucket or watering can). However, surface layers of organic matter, such as mulch or leaf litter, can bind the insecticide and reduce uptake. Before applying drenches, it is important to remove or pull back any mulch or dead leaves so the insecticide solution is poured directly on the mineral soil. It is also important to keep the soil around the tree or shrub moist for the next 7-10 days after applications to encourage uptake

    07/04/2013
    Q
    How do i use Bayer Advance 12 Month Tree & Shrub with my Gilmore sprayer for use with concentrates?
    The gilmore can be changed from teaspoons per gal. or tablespoons per gallon. As a general rule, what should I set the gilmore to? Is your product effective against grasshoppers? and lastly, Is the product effectively balanced ratio wise for flower baring plants?
    A

    The setting you use is going to vary for where you are treating. According to the label:

    How much to use:

    Trees:
    1 oz for every inch of distance
    around trunk; treats 4 trees that
    measure 8 inches around trunk
    Shrubs:
    3 oz for every foot of height;
    treats 5 shrubs that are 2 foot tall
    Containerized Plants:
    1 2/3 tablespoons for each five gallon
    container; treats up to 42 - five gallon
    containers
    Please see the Bayer Advance Product Label for complete instructions for your needs. As long as you have your setting adjusted for the right insect on the right plant, the balance of the ingredients even on flower bareing plants will be correct.
    This product is not effective against grasshoppers according to the label, however we do carry Talstar which is a great safe yet powerful insecticide to control grasshoppers as well as a large variety of other insects.
