About This Product

Kill borers, miners and other pests in your lawn and garden with Annual tree and shrub insect control with systemaxx concentrate from Bonide. This soil drench application provides year-long insect control for trees and shrubs and prevents new infestations. After application, the insecticide moves through the roots and up through the tree or shrub to provide protection from insects. This product will also provide protection for new growth. Once applied, this solution cannot be washed off by rain or water. Controlled insects include aphids, borers, beetles, mealybugs, thrips and many more. This concentrated product arrives ready to mix with water. To use, mix with water according to label instructions and apply to affected plants as a foliar spray or soil drench. For best results, please see product label for full use instructions.

Highlights

  • Great for use on adelgids, aphids, bronze birch borers, emerald ash borer, leaf miners, scale and many other species of bug; will also prevent new infestations

        can this product treat pear trees
        ByApr 13, 2026
        1 Answer | 
        Answer This Question

        Annual Tree & Shrub Insect Control can be used on pear trees, as a soil drench application according to the label's instructions. It is best used prior to the infestation since it takes one week up to three months (for large trees) for the active ingredient to take effect.

          Viburnum Beetles
          I have about 9 viburnum bushes that have never had an issue until this year. They were coming in fine in the spring, looking good, then all the sudden two of them looked dead out of nowhere. I looked closer and saw all the little holes in the leaves. After doing some research, I learned about the viburnum beetles. This happened around mid June. We treated all of them doing the drench method with Annual tree and shrub insect control. Happy to say they have all come back and look great in July. Hope these beetles don't come back!

            This was my first annual application of using this product, as I normally use a different brand of tree and shrub annual protect and feed. My trees are currently covered in forest tent caterpillars. It apparently has no effect on them whatsoever. I have also noticed holes from Carpenter Moths in my Oaks. Would rather spend more on a better product than use this and have my trees eaten by pests.

            Response from Team BonideApr 27, 2026
            Pesticides, such as Annual Tree & Shrub Insect Control, are only effective on the insects listed on the label. Since the label of Annual Tree & Shrub Insect Control does not list tent caterpillars, it would not be effective on them. Please consider using Eight Insect Control Yard & Garden Ready to Spray to kill the caterpillars. Basic
            Didn’t work against scale
            Didn’t kill the scale on my trees. Added as directed. And my tree still died

              Shows great promise with easy application and pack
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ​I started using the Bonide Annual Tree & Shrub Insect Control this year on some of my shrubs that were showing signs of insect damage. The application was very straightforward, and the packaging makes it easy to measure out the correct amount. I'm hoping to see a noticeable improvement in the coming years. While it's too early to give a definitive verdict on its long-term effectiveness, I can say it shows great promise. It seems like a very good value for money if it works as well as I hope. The product has a very low scent, which is a big plus, and the application process was simple. So far, so good—I'm optimistic!

                Hoping it kills Japanese beetles!!
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Application was super easy! Packaging was secure, which is very important especially with kids around. Praying that the annual tree and shrub insect control works to kill the Japanese beetles that are attacking my fruit trees.

                  No New Bug Problems!
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Influenster in exchange for my honest opinion. This was one I had my husband test out for me! Although I did look at the instructions and tried to help. Overall, we don't see any negative changes. You have to dilute the solution and then pour it around the base of the plant (around similar to a bullseye). It was super easy to mix and use.

                    Great product
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have an olive tree that had little black, round, hard pests on the branches and on some leaves. I used this product and found the packaging to be very handy with its cap that has a built in spout for easy pouring, and measurements printed in the cap. It didn’t smell and I followed the directions on the bottle to measure out what I needed. It’s been three weeks and I haven’t seen anymore of the pests.

                      Great treatment that’s convenient
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to see this. Every year my roses get half eaten by bugs. The packaging is secure with a child proof lid and comes with a measuring cup that attaches to the lid. I appreciate the detailed review booklet attached to the back. It explains everything in detail about how to use. I especially like that it only has to be applied once per year! I feel that this is reasonably priced for the coverage it provides. It’s still early and the bugs seem to really get bad later in the year, but so far so good!

                        Great product
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bonide Annual Tree & Shrub Insect Control with Systemaxx Con Quart is a good value..As with concentrates you add water to this, so you are saving money. This works by getting into the rooy system and working up the tree or shrub. It kills insects and works for 12 months. The back comes with an instruction guide. Does not have a strong smell.

                          The bugs are gone
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s working. Last year my tree had lots of nasty bugs that took over. I just followed the instructions by putting a cap full of the chemical mixed with water and sprayed it on my tree and boom just like that the bugs haven’t come back!
