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.
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. You also will still need to water this product in for the roots to absorb it and treat and protect the plant. You can use a watering can, bucket, etc to achieve this.
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.
The product label for BioAdvanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II Granules does not list ladybugs as an insect controlled or any precautions regarding ladybugs. This being a systemic insecticide applied at the base of the bushes, trees, and shrubs and not a foliar spray application to the foliage, branches or trunks, this would not affect ladybugs through contact if walking on the leaf surfaces.
Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II offers year-round systemic protection from pests that will damage your plants and provides needed nutrients all in one simple application.
Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II should only be applied as directed on the product label. If you have thick grass in the area we would recommend mowing the day before application and heavily watering the area in well after application to push the product down into the soil more. Also be sure to remove any thatch layer in the area.
When using BioAdvanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II Granules for shrubs, measure the height of the shrub to the nearest foot. For each foot of height, apply approximately 3/4 cup product evenly around the shrub base.
Shrubs less than 3 ft tall, apply evenly in a circle 1ft from the base of the shrub, for shrubs greater than 3ft tall, apply evenly in a circle 2ft from the base of the shrub. View more information on shrub and containerized plant applications on the product label.

Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II Granules is labeled for scales in general but is not labeled for Euonymus scale specifically. If scale is already present a systemic application may not work quick enough to provide control and stop damage, so a foliar treatment with a product like Talstar P or a product containing neem like Triple Action would be needed.
