Martins Permethrin 10% does not list applications to ornamentals for Japanese beetles on the product label so we would not recommend it. We would recommend Talstar P. It is a insecticide that is labeled for lawn and ornamentals and is safe for plants, bushes, shrubs and trees.

Talstar P is known for being super gentle on plants but care should still be taken to avoid contact with blooms.

Please review our products on our roach control page to see the products that are available.
Martins Permethrin 10% cannot be applied to couches and beds/bedding. It is NOT labeled for bedbugs. Please look at our Bed Bug Kits for all the necessary products to do a full treatment for bed bugs. It is recommended after you see evidence bed bugs are in your home that you treat completely to prevent further infestations. Bed Bugs can lay go up to 18 months without eating making it very likely for them to reappear. To treat your couch alone, we would recommend using Sterifab on the surfaces and Bedlam Aerosol spray in the tufts and folds of the couch and underside of the cushions.
