  • Asked by Tawny from Laguna Beach, California
    09/28/2016
    Q
    How long would I need to cover my pond for when using Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew Concentrate when treating a tree above it for caterpillars?
    I have roughly a 200 gallon fish pond below the trees that I need to spray for an infestation of the redhumped Catapillar. Can I cover the pond while spraying? How long should I wait before uncovering the pond? Will leaves or dead catapillars that fall hurt the water or fish in my pond?
    A

    When using Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew Concentrate you can use it under your tree to treat for caterpillars as long as you cover the pond, and leave it covered until all the treated foilage has time to dry. Per the manufacturer the residual left on that foiliage or the pest that come in contact with it would not harm your fish should any of it fall into the pond after the treated area has dried.

  • Asked by Florence from Lynbrook, New York
    08/10/2014
    Q
    I have an infestation of bag worms and was wondering if it was worth to spray now or should we wait?
    A

    Unfortunately spraying for bagworms now is pointless. You can manually control bagworms by simply plucking them off of the infested trees and dropping them into a bucket of soapy water or squishing them.  This control method is most useful during fall, winter and early spring, before the eggs inside the bag have hatched. 

    It is important to start control methods before a major infestation occurs. Once the bagworms have matured and have formed the "bag" most chemical control methods will no longer work. Using a product like Talstar P before the eggs have hatched in the spring and early summer will most beneficial.
