How Does Fruit Tree and Vegetable Systemic Soil Drench Work?
First, unlike other chemical solutions, this systemic drench gets absorbed into the roots of plants, which in turn sends it through the plant's sap and disperses it throughout all parts of the plant. This systemic action makes it more effective in killing the pests than spraying on top of them, as the insecticide won't just wash away or evaporate as traditional sprays do. Additionally, it's safe to use around pets and children since it doesn't contain any harsh chemicals that could harm them if accidentally ingested or inhaled.
Apply once a year at labeled application timing. See the label for plant-specific directions.
See plant-specific restrictions for the pre-harvest interval. If no pre-harvest
interval is listed, then the product may be applied up to and including the day of
harvest.
