Conserve SC is not OMRI listed. If you are looking for a spinosad product that is, Monterey Garden Insect Spray would be recommended.
For prevention of and early spring treatment of rose sawfly, you can use a systemic product like Fertilome Tree and Shrub Systemic Insect Drench.

It is best to spray in early morning, and be sure you treat the undersides of the leaves where these insects hide.

A great product to use for gypsy moths and similar caterpillars would be a product containing natural Spinosad, such as Conserve SC.

If you are only treating a few trees, then you could use Monterey Garden Insect Spray.
Conserve SC is not labeled to be used on Fig Trees. We would not advise it. Depending on what you are treating for you can use Monterey Take Down which is labeled for Fig Trees.
