Systemic pesticide for roses

wrote: I would like to use a systemic pesticide on my roses. I've heard systemic pesticides can be very dangerous. Anything misused can be dangerous. For example, water can be very dangerous. I've tried several different sprays and am not satisfied with the results. Not all systemic products are sprayed. Spraying can be hazardous due to inhalation. Can anyone recommend a brand of systemic pesticide that is not so dangerous to humans and pets? There are Rose Food/Systemic products that are applied to the soil, scratched in and the pesticide is taken up by the roots. I use the Ortho product (Bayer makes one too) on my roses only. I am willing to try other remedies, that is, if there is one that I have not tried. Aphids are hard to control. Thanks, Freckles |
