Bonide Systemic Insect Control is a neonic alternative chemistry insecticide designed to control a wide variety of hard-to-kill pests on over 100 plant varieties, including roses, flowers, ornamentals, shrubs, and shade trees. The active ingredient is Acetamiprid at 9.4%. It is effective against pests such as aphids, grasshoppers, Japanese beetles, leafminers, mealybugs, scale, thrips, and whiteflies. For hard-to-kill insects like flower thrips or scale, the label recommends applying 2 to 3 times, waiting 7 to 10 days between applications. When applying, spray the entire plant, ensuring both sides of the foliage are covered thoroughly. This product can be used in combination with registered fungicides or fertilizers on ornamentals, but users should not exceed two consecutive applications of combination sprays. It is intended for outdoor residential use only and should not be used on turf, lawns, or plants intended for food or feed. Always spray with the wind to your back and avoid application when wind speeds are 10 mph or higher. Keep the product away from heat and open flames as it is flammable.
