Hi! We have VERY tall oaks which we can’t reach foliage on. Will the application of Talstar to trunks kill small spongy moth caterpillars? Or must they ingest it by eating foliage we’ve sprayed?
Talstar P Professional Insecticide will only affect the caterpillars that come in contact with the residual. If you cannot spray higher up where the caterpillars are, it will not affect them
