You can make your own shaker by dumping some dust into an old sock.

So I guess if it is a fragile plant or I'm covering a small area dust is
better. Hardy plant large area spray is fine. I have not been able to find
applicators for dusting except the stuff that comes in a shaker can. I
figure buying it in bulk is better. Do you make your own shaker, or am I
not
looking in the right place.
thanks,
