    Cured Scale Insect Problem on Key Lime Fast

    By Anthony on 07/08/2014

    Verified Purchase

    I bought this because I heard that it was one of the very few treatments for scale insects. My Key Lime tree had not been bearing fruit and seemed stagnant as far as new growth is concerned. I discovered that the stems were covered with tiny brown scale insects. The leaves were tell-tale: they were covered with a shiny, wax-like coating which the insects secrete to protect themselves making them impervious to ordinary insecticides. The Bayer treatment is systemic, being drawn up through the roots and poisons these pests from the inside. In a matter of a few days the scale insects were dead and could be easily removed. This stuff is a miracle!

    Great for the Control of Scale Insects on Citrus

    By Anthony on 07/20/2014

    Verified Purchase

    Scale insects are among THE most difficult to control. They attach themselves to the stems and leaves of plants and secrete a shellac-like material that makes them largely impervious to sprayed-on treatments. I had a Kumquat and Key Lime tree that were infested. It was hard to tell the insects were there except for the tell-tale presence of the coating on some of the leaves; they were shiny, while others were naturally dull. The Bayer Insect Control is systemic meaning that you dilute it with water and feed it to the plant. Then it poisons the insects via the juice and sap they suck out of the plant. Within a week of treatment the scale insects were dead and could be flaked off the trees. FANTASTIC!

    It Works on leafminers.

    By Dogman on 03/27/2017

    Tried 3 different sprays for 6 months with no success on leafminers that were slowly destroying my satsuma tree. This product by Bayer seems to have them in check shortly after application.

Q
Do I need to apply any supplemental treatments of other insecticides after using Bayer Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control?

Was wondering if this is an all in one system for citrus trees? Will I need to apply say...neem oil and spinosad like normal or does this product take the place of all of those?

A

Bayer Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control is a systemic product that can only be done once a year. If there is an issue that this product did not take care of, neem oil or spinosad is a good option for supplemental treating. This will only be used if there is a need for it.

Please help!!!!

Q
What product can be used as a systemic or foliar application on fruit trees to control Japanese Beetles? Neem Oil has been useless and ineffective.

The product label for Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control does not list beetles as controlled on the product label.

A

Correct, Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control is not labeled for beetles on fruit trees. 

Sevin Concentrate would be recommended for a foliar spray application to control Japanese Beetles on fruit trees. For soil or ground treatments, Milky Spore Powder can be used to control Japanese Beetle larvae (white grubs) around fruit trees and vegetables.   

Review the Sevin product label and Mily Spore product label for more information.
