    Q
    I diluted Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Controlv with too much water
    I needed to use 21 ounces per 1 gallon of water. I used a 2 gallon container instead of a 1 gallon. I thought it was a 1 gallon. Do I need to retreat and when. I am treating a very large lemon tree, it has heavy infestation
    A

    No, you will not need to retreat with Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control. Per label, the rate is 21 oz per 1 gallon of water and you would pour that mixture on the base. Then, it instructs you to add another gallon of water to base. So by adding the 2 gallons together with 21 oz of product at once, is sufficient.

    Q
    How can I use BioAdvanced on my four cabbages that have not yet grown a head?
    Last year, after using diatomaceous earth several times, my cabbage heads were still infested with worms! This year, prior to them heading, I want to use something that will definitely kill anything that comes on them. Should I just apply the proper mixing around the base of the cabbage, and will this continue being effective through the root system throughout the growing season
    A

    As stated on the product label of Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control, "Do not harvest fruit until at least 21 days after application. Do not make more than one application per year."
     
    The product label also states, "To prevent insect infestation, apply at transplant or shortly after plants emerge from seed. 1. Measure the area of the vegetable row to be treated. Note: a row that is 1 ft. X 10 ft. is 10 square feet. 2. Add 0.5 ounce of product per 10 square feet of vegetable row to be treated to 1 quart of water. 3. Evenly apply the prepared mixture (0.5 oz. product plus 1 qt. water) to the base of all plants within the 10 sq. ft. of area and not just to the base of one plant in the treatment area." Please be sure to review the product label for more information and complete application instructions before use.

    Q
    Is Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control effective in killing white grubs in the soil?
    I have citrus trees, avocado trees and fig trees planted in my backyard (in the ground as well as in containers). The soil is infested with white grubs (beetle larvae). If I apply BioAdvanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control per direction, will the soil drench kill the white grubs (and will the systemic insecticide taken up by the trees kill the adult beetles when they feed on the leaves in the summer)?
    A
    Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control is not labeled for lawn use for grubs, or around fruit trees specifically for grubs. It is however labeled for use for other insects that would be impacting the trees and can be safely used around the root zone of the edibles. This is a tricky situation as most lawn grub control products are not for use within the drip line of any edible vegetation. Milky Spore Powder and Milky Spore Lawn Spreader Mix are both organic options that can be used in lawns and around edibles. However it only works against the Japanese Beetle Grub specifically, and does not target other grub types that may also be present. Adult beetles that emerge in summer would need to be controlled with a foliar application to the leaves of the trees consistently to help prevent damage. Systemic drench insecticides usually will not impact beetles and a foliar surface spray on the plant is required. This can be done with natural products like Triple Action with Neem Oil, which lasts roughly 14 days with each application and can be applied up to the day of harvest.

    Q
    What is the mix rate per gallon of water using Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control to treat vegetables?
    I am only seeing a mix rate for trees of 0.5 fl oz per 10 sq ft, I need it per gallon of water.
    A

    The Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control has a lengthy Product Label that goes over all the specifications of use around each type of edible.

    Under Vegetables on page 4 of the product label: Mix 0.5 fl oz per 10 sq ft in 1 quart (32 oz) of water. Evenly apply the prepared mixture (0.5 oz. product plus 1 qt. water) to the base of all plants within the 10 sq. ft. of area and not just to the base of one plant in the treatment area.

    Do not make more the one application per year.

    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.

    Q
    Does Bio Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control work on Sri Lanka beetles?
    A

    Bayer Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control is labeled to target beetles but does not specify Sri Lanka beetles. 

    The only product that we know of that is recommended for the Sri Lanka Weevil is Talstar, but Talstar will not kill the eggs. (Talstar is not labeled for the Sri Lanka Weevil but is recommended by many universities that have done research on this pest) We recommend that you contact your local cooperative extension as they may have more information on the Sri Lanka Weevil that is invading your region.
