The active ingredient is imidacloprid and it IS effective against
rhododendron or azalea scale. Ask for it by the chemical name or you could
look for it under a couple of other tradenames: Marathon, Admire, Premier,
or Premise. It is general use pesticide so larger garden centers should
carry it or you might be able to order it online. Be sure you read the label
carefully and apply according to directions. You can also try swabbing the
insects directly now with isopropyl alcohol.


Thanks Pam
