? In other words how much residual insecticide is left after say an hour of overhead watering? Thanks!
Not enough for me to risk losing the season to the vine borer. Probably not the answer you wanted to hear, but thats how I feel. Warrior T seems to last after rains fairly well....but I try not to overhead water--I use a water wand or soakers. The day before I reapply the insecticide i will overhead water....then apply in the morning. Ive just seen too much damage from those little beasts to take any chances....paranoid? Yeah, probably , but no damage in three years to speak of when they were THE nemesis around here.......my 2 cents worth......G
