Systemic insecticide for roses
I can not find the granular systemic insecticide for roses. I've used
this product (any brand, Ortho, Bayer, K-Gro, etc) for many years and now it is not available at Home Depot, WalMart, nor K-Mart. Has this product been removed from the market? (The granules smell a little like Circus Peanuts.) I've tried dozens of methods to control aphids and Japanese beetles (including many "organic" controls) but the granular systemic seems to be the most effective. |

They Bayer stuff is available in Home Depot here. I use the 3 in 1 that comes as a goopy liquid, so I see the granular one when I'm scanning the shelves looking for the one I want. There are a lot of stores carrying some of the Bayer products, but none that carry them all. There are two Home Depots that I sometimes go to, and each time I go to either, they have a different mix of products on those shelves, and more importantly, they can differ from each other, too. There's a farm store nearby -- Wilco Farm Store -- that also has some of the Bayer products, but has them in different sized packages than I find at Home Depot, Lowes, or the nearby discount department store, or even the garden center.

I use Actara - at my place very effective ( also I use it for vegetables) |
