It will not stain and is safe when used as directed on and around ornamental plants, do not apply during the heat of the day to avoid burning. You would use 1 2/3 fl oz per gallon of water and thoroughly spray tree trunks (if found on), building siding or wherever pests congregate, but not to the point of runoff.
