What is the recommended concentration of Riptide for a root drench?

The pests we are dealing with are root aphids. Any other recommendations, in addition to optimum concentration, are welcome. Thanks!

Answer:

Riptide 5.0% Pyrethrin ULV is not labeled to be used as a root drench.  It is not a systemic and will not be absorbed through the roots.  It is only for spraying plants surfaces to kill exposed aphids on plants. If you are looking for a systemic product to apply as a soil drench Adonis 2F would be a better option.
