Soil applications are taken up by plant, ornamental, and tree roots into twigs, stems, and foliage. Merit 75 WSP includes detailed instructions for application to turfgrass, ornamentals, trees, shrubs, flowers, groundcovers, and in and around commercial or residential buildings. There are 4 x 1.6 oz. water soluble packets in each envelope.

Excellent systemic saved my avocado tree from thrips, my ficus hedge from whitefly and my lawn from grub worms. Somewhat effective on the lime tree for leaf miners. Merit can be used on everything around your home, and even as a foundation soak for subterranean termites.

I have several older Large purple robes that are infested with locust borers. The local "pros" told me to cut them down and chip/burn them; they could not be saved. We planted these trees 15 years ago when we bought the property and I was not about to give up on them that easily. I did a foliar treatment to kill the emerging adults with Cyper and did a drench treatment and repeat treatment a few weeks after to make sure I got the Merit into the roots. A year later 2 of my 3 trees are thriving. The winds did break one of the weakend trees but the other two are going strong, healing over their wounds and so far no sign of new borers.

I worked out the amounts I needed per tree, weighing the doses seemed the most effective. Did all 14 of my Chinese Elms, we will see how effective my process was this summer when the beetles hit. The internal packaging was damaged on a couple of packets within the main package. Compared to some of the liquid alternatives, this powder seems to be the most cost efficient method of addressing my beetle protection. It was less than 1/3 of the cost I was quoted by a commercial exterminator or buying the liquid version from Home Depot.

The amount of water you use is up to you. The manufacturer recommends that you use an amount of water that is easy for you to handle and calculate. 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. It is recommended that you use at least 5-10 gallons of water per 1,000 sq ft. After the application is complete you can then go back and irrigate the area to help the product penetrate the root systems.

Q

Does Merit kill bees
When used as root injection

A

Merit 75 WSP is highly toxic to bees even if applied as a root injection. The residue can still be there when the tree or shrub blooms.

Q

Merit 75 WSP cannot be used on a citrus tree. The product can persist for about 1 year after the application inside the tree. There is another product called Imidapro 4SC which is labeled for use on citrus trees and it contains the same active ingredient as Merit just in a different formulation.
