Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Potect and Feed II Granules is to treat for insect control. We would recommend using a fungicide like Ferti-lome Liquid Systemic Fungicide II on your tree. You will apply 1/2 to 3 tablespoons of Ferti-lome Liquid Systemic Fungicide II per gallon of water for trees and shrubs. Fertilome Liquid Systemic Fungicide II is not labeled to be used as a systemic soil drench. If you are looking for a product to use that way we would recommend Monterey Agri-Fos Systemic Fungicide. This can be used as a soil drench at the base of the tree, foliar spray, by soil incorporation, through basal bark treatment, and as a bare root dip.
Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II application timing can vary depending on the type of insect you are using to treat/prevent with it. Please contact your local cooperative extension office to determine the correct timing of the application as this will vary greatly from region to region for when the target pest is active.
The BioAdvanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II Granules is a great option for systemic and long term control of whiteflies on plants, however it will not provide immediate results.

If you need immediate knock down of plants on the ficus you would want to use something like Fertilome Neem Spray with Py which will provide contact kill and about a 7 day residual. You could mix up a 1-2 gallon tank sprayer worth and spray the foliage until wet to achieve fast results.
