Default Orthenex

Orthenex is a systemic insecticide/fungicide/miticide. It should
not be used on any edible plants. Ornamental use only.

I always read the rate of application and interval to reapply, if
needed. I guess that is period that it is still valid? I hate
using
chemicals and try things homemade and natural but my aphids were
very
strong this year,

How many days/weeks will Orthenex's pesticide be effective?


What does it say on the label? What insect are you trying to
control?

Reading the information provided by the company before using
pesticides on plants you're going to eat is probably a good
habit to
cultivate.
