To protect honey bees, apply only during the late evening, night, and early morning when bees are not present. Use a non-ionic, high quality adjuvant to obtain effective full canopy applications and uptake through tissues. Interval between applications is 30 days. It needs to be absorbed by actively growing green leaf or stem tissue, and translocated by the plant to the sucking insect to protect honey bees, apply only during late evening, night, or early morning when bees are not present. This is a unique systemic insecticide that is absorbed in green tissue and can move to roots.
