Customer Reviews for Bonide Annual Tree and Shrub Insect Control with Systemaxx, 128 oz. Concentrate, Year Long Protection and Insect Killer

Purchased this maybe 6 months ago for my crepe myrtle tree that wouldn't bloom. Found out it was due to the trunks on the tree being heavily infested with bug feces. The trunks are clean now!

Easy to use but too soon to tell if works as promised.

I have rather Massive Chinese Elms that I treated with drenching but it will still be another month or two before I see results. However I had a gentleman I know working for me that I gave the instructions to and quoted them to him. When I got back to him (I was shooting or a light foliar stop gap effort). I found he ignored me and the instructions and in place of 1.5 teaspoons per gallon he was mixing something on the order of 1oz. per gallon. Yikes. That'l nuke 'em all.

Easy to apply, but the season is just getting started, and it's impossible to know what the efficacy will be until mid-July.

Keeps aphids off my big tree. No more drippy mess.

Works gracefully and a price

Easy to use, cheaper than other brands and just as effective

I can't provide a meaningful rating until next summer, when I'll be able to tell whether the leaf miners that have plagued my aspens for the last several years are defeated. I gave a 5 star rating because a product with the same chemical formula worked well, and I would expect the same from the Bonide. The Bonide is significantly cheaper than that product, so if it works, all the more reason to buy it instead.

Easy to use and effective.

Works well to control whiteflies

This is an insecticide that can treat large trees as well as smaller trees. It is effective when used in the spring for medium to small trees and shrubs. Apply it in the late fall for large trees because it takes longer for the larger trees to absorb it. In my area there is no tree spraying company that can reach the height of my large green ash. It has aphids regularly each spring and tree spray companies cannot reach the tops. This drench is applied in October about the time the leaves start to change color. The drench lasts about 12 months so the aphids and other insects are well controlled. This is a good product satisfying my needs.

Took care of almost all of the bag worms on our trees. We had more bag worms than ever before and it virtually eliminated 98% or more. Would highly recommend.

Too soon to know if this is working as a basal drench on my Ash trees. What I have sprayed as a foliar on trees and the lawn seem to be doing well.
