Eric from Hartselle, Al writes
Bifen XTS should not be applied at this time of year directly to azaleas for aphid and lace bug control. It is an oil based product that could damage the plants if not applied in cooler temperatures. We would recommend that you use a water base product that will be gentle on these plants and apply in the evening or early in the morning such as Bifen IT. Dominion 2L Termiticide Concentrate should be applied as a drench around the base of the shrubs/bushes in no less than 10 gallons of water per 1000 square feet. Direct application to the root area is best for lacebugs and aphids.
