[IBC] Cinnamite
This is a commercial product probably not readily available to the homeowner.
It usually comes from commercial nursery supply houses and the quantity/price might be too much for the average hobbyist.

[IBC] Cinnamite
Further surfing finds a site "rosecare.com" that sells Cinnamite at $40 for
20 oz (or thereabouts) IT is a commercial product. The small grower/homeowner has better products available. The commercial people like things like Cinnamite because it can be used close to sale or harvest and it has a low REI (Re entry interval) This is the period of time workers must stay away from or out of a sprayed area. For Cinnamite it is four hours as opposed to days for more toxic stuff. If you are a commercial grower this can be down time for greenhouses and workers. If you are spraying a few bonsai trees, outdoors there is less concern and you can use more effective things. Also as Jim Lewis and the manufacturers label says this is phototoxic to some plants.

[IBC] Cinnamite
I have been using Cinnamite commercial product for the last month or so. It
appears to be an effective insecticide and miticide but there is significant toxicity to new leaves on many species including ficus.
