I was told that Will Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub will kill birds and bees if they eat the berries of Crepe Myrtles. We have been treating our Crepe Myrtles for 5 years and have never seen a dead bird in our yard.
We have never heard of the BioAdvanced 12 Month Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed II Granules impacting birds if the product is used correctly. Bees and pollinating insects do have the ability to be impacted by systemic treatments if they are used close to the plants blooming cycle where the beneficial insects would be foraging. You are welcome to contact the manufacturer directly for more specific info regarding any safety or environmental concerns. You can reach the manufacturer toll-free at 1-877-229-3724.
