Q

Can I mix ImidaPro 2SC with Bifen IT?
I want to spray my lawn with ImidaPro 2SC for the grubs, and Bifen IT for other bugs. Is there any reason I couldn't mix these in the sprayer to do them both at once?

A

You actually can mix these two products together and apply them at the same time. This does not apply with all insecticides but due to the pests on each of these labels, how they are used, and the chemical classes being completely different you can tank mix them with no problem.

Q

Can ImidaPro 2SC be diluted with water to bring it down to a 1.47% solution that is more manageable?
I am currently using Bayer with the same active ingredient to soak the roots of my azaleas, podocarpus and other like plants. Do you know the shelf life of the product?

A

Imidapro 2SC is labeled to be used on most non-edible plants. You will use 0.46 to 0.6 fluid ounces (14 to 17 mL) per 1,000 sq. ft or .1 -.2 fl oz of product per foot of plant height.(you can mix the product in the amount of water that is easy for you to handle since water is only the carrier (use at least 2 gallons of water per 1,000 sq ft for broadcast sprays or at least 1 pint of water per ft of plant height)

You should plan on using the product within 3 years of purchase to insure efficacy.

Q

Use for hemlock adelgid prevention
I would like to spray the drip zone of large (6-8" DBA) and small hemlock (2-4 ft) for ongoing protection from hemlock adelgids. I hope to find insight on appropriate concentration for mixing with water, then apply uniformly to the drip zone of large and small trees.

A

When using the ImidaPro 2SC as a soil drench for Hemlock Woolly Adelgids you should use 0.1-0.2 fl. oz. (3 ml - 6 ml) of ImidaPro per inch of trunk diameter (D.B.H.) diluted in 1 pint - 1 gallon of water per inch of trunk diameter per the product label. The amount of water that is used will vary depending on soil conditions and volumes that are easy for applicators to use. The minimum amount of water that should be used is 1 pint per inch of trunk diameter but you may use 1 quart -1 gallon of water per inch of trunk diameter.

Denser soils such as clay do not accept water as readily, so the lower volume of water is suggested. Since sandy soils can accept more water, using the higher volume of water is preferred. After the soil drench has been applied you should water it in with at east 1/2 inch of water. Note: Water simply acts as a carrier and it is important that even distribution of the product is achieved. Thus, more water may be used if the applicator feels runoff will not occur and proper penetration of the root zone is achieved. Insecticides applied to the soil are taken up by the roots and trans-located throughout the tree or shrub. Root/soil drenches offer the advantage of requiring no special equipment to apply (other than a bucket or watering can). However, surface layers of organic matter, such as mulch or leaf litter, can bind the insecticide and reduce uptake. Before applying drenches, it is important to remove or pull back any mulch or dead leaves so the insecticide solution is poured directly on the mineral soil. It is also important to keep the soil around the tree or shrub moist for the next 7-10 days.

Q

I would like to do a soil drench around my ash trees, what is the appropriate ratio of product per gal of H2O?

A

To perform a soil drench on trees you should apply 0.1 to 0.2 fl. oz. (3 to 6 mL) of ImidaPro 2SC per inch of trunk diameter. Apply no less than 10 gallons of water per 1,000 square feet as a drench around the base of the tree, directed to the root zone. Any plastic or other barrier that may prevent drench solution from reaching the root zone must be removed.

Q

To spray for grubs on yard with a 4 gallon backpack sprayer, how much ImidaPro 2SC would I put in?

A

When applying ImidaPro 2SC for grub control, it is important to use sufficient water when applying to move the active ingredient through the thatch layer of grass into the soil where the insects will be or are feeding as soon as possible. This is usually an extra 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch of rainfall or irrigation with the application. As long as you do not have excessive rainfall while the application is still wet, and/or the ground is not saturated, then you should have residual activity for several weeks following the application.

To control White grub larvae, (such as Japanese beetle larvae, Chafers, Phyllophaga spp., Asiatic garden beetle, Oriental beetle) apply 0.46 to 0.6 fluid ounces (14 to 17 mL) per 1,000 sq. ft. Make broadcast applications by mixing specified rate in enough water to uniformly cover the treated area. Do not use less than 2 gallons of water per 1,000 sq. ft. Please refer to the product label for complete application instructions.

Q

Our dogs occasionally eat grass. If I treat our lawn for grubs with ImidaPro2c, will it hurt them?

A

Areas that have been treated with ImidaPro 2SC are pet safe once dry. The small amount of active in the grass is only strong enough to kill small insects. Your dog would have to eat a truckload of grass most likely to get sick, and he/she would probably get much more sick from the grass then the ImidaPro. However, of course we recommend anything you can do to minimize your dog from eating the grass.

Q

What is the mix rate for treating 150 White Pines with ImidaPro 2SC as a soil drench?
I have a windbreak of 150 white pines,and some have developed bark beetles and wooly aphids. I would like to do a soil drench on each tree, but I am having trouble with the application directions as listed. For example, if I have a 40 inch diameter tree trunk, is it correct that I would use 4 oz. of ImidaPro in a 5 gallon bucket of water and spread it around the base of the tree?

A

Mixing ImidaPro 2SC at a rate of .2 oz per in of trunk diameter, you would mix 8 oz into 5 gallons of water per tree for a 40 in diameter tree.

ImidaPro 2SC is not labeled for use in potted plants.

There is no need to mix Wisdom and ImidaPro 2SC when doing applications because they are both insecticides and used in different areas.

You should keep chickens or other animals or people out of the treatment area until the application is dry when using ImidaPro 2SC. We would not recommend using the insecticide in the chickens' area.
