Aphids

[Izhar]

Any general purpose spray will do, but it should be on a regular basis.. say (depending on the infestation) every third day till the pests are completely removed, dont forget to spray on nearby plants, walls and pots..

The spray must be on well watered plants and in the evening only..

Aoa Khan sb use Imedia cleopard it kills aphids in single use.what i like it does not harm the flower buds of roses.for mealy bugs Eceeda cleopard is best.Bayers Moveto eliminates both aphids & mealy bugs along with thripes.

Regent is not meant for Aphids its for Borers.if you want Bayer product then try Confidor.but i use Welcon Action(imida cleopard).its result ie very good & its not that much costly because its available in small packing of 100 Gms.please do not spray Regent for this purpose.

Khan saheb I got your message late and had already sprayed Regent. It has worked wonders, all aphids gone

[UMARKHANMARDAN]

Cheers its good that all your bushes are saved from Aphids.good NEWS.

Last year you has advised to flood my beds with Regent due to termites. I remember that after that I have had no problems with any insects including ants. I think Regent works quite broadly. Phew! Glad the bushes are safe for now. Roses are really Nakhrey Waley plants but worth it in the end I guess

[UMARKHANMARDAN]

Yes Khan sb Regent is a good product.it kills most of the pest & also control the termites.
