I have used both Knox-Out (microencapsulated diazinon) and microencapsulated
Orthene bombs. I am not convinced that they are as effective as a good
soaking with spray. It seems logical though, as it's easier to apply a
spray under leaf surfaces...

There is an aerosol bomb insecticide for use in greenhouses but
I lost the info. I know it was from somebody in our group & the cans
were very expensive & had to buy in bulk?
Hoping who ever it was reads this.

Hi all,
I'm new to the group so if this question has been recently asked and
answered, please excuse me: Has anyone tried using a commercial "bug
bomb" such as Raid or Black Flag to treat insect infestations on large
numbers of plants? My collection of paphs has become infested with
mealbugs and nothing I use seems to be having any effect. Can anyone
offer any insight or suggest another method of treating these critters
in bulk?
