Can Avid.15 EC be used as a wide area spray?

I definitely have a spider mite infestation in my lawn and/or the shrubs, as we get tons of them on the concrete patio to the rear of the house (south side). Can I spray the yard/shrubs with this application?

Answer:

Avid 0.15 EC is not labeled to be applied to lawns but can be used on foliage plants.

Talstar P works well for both the mature and the immature spider mites. Talstar P provides optimal spider mite control when applied during spring to mid-summer. Higher application rates and/or more frequent treatments may be required for acceptable spider mite control during mid- to late-summer.  Talstar can be applied to lawns and is supre gentle on plants and might be a better choice for you.
