Spray when the leaf is dry for insecticides

ONLY SPRAY WHERE YOU SEE A PROBLEM, USE INSECTICIDAL SOAPS IF POSSIBLE,
IF YOU ARE USING MALATHION OR SEVIN OR ? NEVER USE MORE THAN 1/4 TO 1/2 OZ PER GAL.,
AND MAKE SURE YOU SPRAY 3 TO 4 TIMES @ 7/10 DAY INTERVALS TO GET THE LIFE CYCLE OF
THE INSECT THAT IS THE PROBLEM.

Most of the time if the damage is just cosmetic just cut off the bad leaf and make sure the
plant is well fed and watered.

A hard spray of H2O on the plant will wash off many bugs.

we have 1 billion insects per sq. acre of earth and the vast majority of them are beneficial
and much needed for our ecosystems ..... spay as little as possible.
