Anyone tried Bayer Advanced Natria?
I had scale suddenly appear over the winter on a few plants. Probably due to some hitch-hikers that I didn't see when inspecting some new arrivals.
I have been using Bayer Advanced Rose & Flower with Imidacloprid, and that seems to be controlling things pretty well. I will likely continue spraying my plants with Bayer Advanced Rose & Flower for at least a month (hey, I was going to just use the acronym, but "spraying my plants with BARF" just sounds wrong).
I do believe in rotating chemicals so that pests don't build up a tolerance. I have a neem-based product, and may use that after the month is over.
But, I have seen the Bayer Natria product offered, and it is labeled for mealies, scale, and mites. Active ingredients are sulfur and pyrethrins, so I assume this would be a contact poison only. Has anyone used this? The pest I am managing now is scale, but mealies have been a problem in the past. No issues with mites yet (knock on wood). Just wondering if this is a good choice to rotate to after the Neem. I will probably rotate back to the BARF (yeah, still sounds wrong) or Bayer 3-in-1 later in the year.
Any advice appreciated.
