  • Asked by Debbie
    08/30/2021
    Q
    Is Bonide Systemic Insect Control applied as a soil drench or foliar spray for outside ferns?
    A

    Bonide Systemic Insect Control is applied as a foliar spray and will work systemically to translocate throughout the plant. This is not labeled for soil drench applications.

    Dominion 2L Insecticide would be an alternative systemic insecticide for soil drenching around ornamentals, shrubs, flowers, groundcovers & trees for listed target insects. You will use 0.1 to 0.2 fl oz per inch of trunk diameter (D.B.H – diameter at breast height) in no less than 10 gallons of water to evenly pour around the base out to the canopy.  

    Please review the Soil Drench Application Section on page 11 of the product label

    Q
    How can overspray of Bonide Systemic Insect Control be removed that has dried on window glass?
    My husband oversprayed when treating our bougainvillea and there is residue on window glass that will not come off with soap/water or razor blades.
    A

    Typically soap and water will get the Bonide Systemic Insect Control. Since that has not worked, you will need to reach out to the manufacturer. You can contact the manufacturer directly at 315-736-8231.

    01/10/2022
    Q
    Is Bonide Systemic Insect Control the same as Bonide Systemic Insect Spray with Systemaxx?
    A

    No, Bonide Systemic Insect Control does not have the same active ingredient (Acephate) as the Bonide Annual Tree & Shrub Insect Control with Systemaxx (Imidacloprid) 

    Bonide Systemic Insect Control (Acephate) can be reapplied as needed at 7-10 day intervals. The Annual Tree & Shrub Insect Control with Systemaxx (Imidacloprid) is applied once a year as a soil drench application.

    Q
    Can Bonide Systemic Insect Control be applied to gardenia plants in a greenhouse?
    A

    Depending on the insects you are targeting, Avid 0.15 EC Miticide Insecticide would be a great alternative for ornamental plants in greenhouses.

    Q
    Will Bonide Systemic Insect Control kill ground wasps in the roots of wisteria?
    I have a wasp nest in the roots of a Wisteria and wonder if a heavy application of The Bonide Systemic Granules Insect Control will kill them all
    A

    Bonide Systemic Insect Control is not labeled for ground waps therfore would not be recommended. Talstar P is commonly used to drench in ground wasps/yellow jacket/hornet nests. Please view the full product label for more information. 

    Dusting the opening to the ground nest with Delta Dust is another way to directly treat the access points of where waps enter/exit the nest.

    Q
    Rhododendron lace bugs
    When to apply via drench method? In the fall? summer? Please advice. My rhododendrons have signs of lace bugs. One of them died and two are sick.
    A
    Bonide Systemic Insect Control is a very good product for lacebugs. You will use 1 1/2 fl. oz. per gallon of water. You will spray the entire plant, covering both sides of the foliage thoroughly. We recommend consulting with your cooperative extension office for timing and additional information regarding the health of the plant for alternate options.
