BioAdvanced Bayer Tree & Shrub Protect & Feed

Once you apply the solution as a root drench, the plant's roots absorb the formula and transport it upward through the vascular system. This distributes the active ingredients throughout the entire plant, from the roots up to the highest branches and leaves, creating internal protection.

No, this product is specifically formulated for ornamental trees and shrubs only. Do not use it on any plants that produce food or edible crops.

You only need to apply it once per year. The formula provides 12 months of continuous protection against insects while simultaneously feeding the plant.

It is best applied during the growing season when the plant is actively taking up water. Avoid applying when the ground is saturated or frozen, as the roots need to be able to absorb the solution effectively.

It is highly effective against many common pests like aphids, beetles, and leafminers, but it is not a universal solution for every single insect species. Always check the label to ensure it targets the specific pest you are trying to manage.

Because this is a systemic treatment applied to the soil, it is generally less disruptive to pollinators than topical sprays. However, you should always avoid applying it to plants that are currently in bloom or where pollinators are actively foraging.
