Please be aware that this systemic kind of Chloronicotinylnitroguanidine has no acaricidal properties.
That means that it is not effective against the bulb scale mite Steneotarsonemus laticeps and thus it is a worthless remedy in Anaryllis, at least for me.

Wow Hans...those are really "Big" words for me but I got your point. Thank you so much!!!

mariava7 - regarding your roses-I have learned that the leaves get more infestations if wet or damp. I only water mine in the morning. They are in a raised bed and very loose organic soil so they drain off well. I used to get all kinds of infestations when in different locations. I have them in morning sun-this allows the sun to melt off any dew or water on the leaves thus avoiding mold and other critters to attack. I get no more bugs or mildew now and I use no incecticide/fungicide what so ever. I am a bit disabled and do only 'what I can kinda gardener'-BUT it works for me in SW Florida. I also released 1500 ladybugs in my rose and bulb garden that keep the fungus/aphid infestation off my roses, amaryllis, lillys and other plants.... I hope this helps!

Imidacloprid is highly toxic to bees and other beneficial insects. It is also linked to eggshell thinning in birds, and a reduction in the number of eggs successfully hatching.

OMG, it will definitely be a NO then. Thank you all for the information.
Cindeea...the ladybug idea would be cool. My daughter would love that too. She calls ladybugs her "bugga-bugga" friends.
