Any systemic treatment has the potential to impact bees foraging from new blooms.

The Bio Advanced 12 month Tree and Shrub Insecticide is solely for trees and shrubs, Merit has a wider list of acceptable application sites (Lawns, interior landscapes, ornamental beds, turf grasses and more).
The active ingredient Imidacloprid provides year long systemic protection against listed insects. Applications can be done any time during the year as long as the ground is not frozen or overly saturated from rainfall. Since systemic insecticides work slowly from the roots and up throughout the plant or tree, you should apply prior to insect pressure begins. The systemic process can take anywhere from a couple weeks to a few months to fully work its way up from the roots depending on the size of tree, shrub, bush or ornamental.
