I recently purchased Avid miticide from you for spruce mites found on my hemlock trees. Can Avid be applied using a Hi Yield Spreader Sticker? Can Southern AG Non-Ionic Surfactant be used? Thank you,
You are not required to use a surfactant like Hi-Yield Spreader Sticker Non-Ionic Surfactant when using Avid 0.15 EC Miticide Insecticide. The product label states that this product has been evaluated for phytotoxicity on a wide range of ornamental plants. However, since all combinations or sequences of pesticide sprays, including surfactants and adjuvants, have not been tested, it is recommended that if you add a surfactant a small area be sprayed first to make certain that no phytotoxicity occurs. There is no issue rotating surfactants or using the same one each time
