This review is from: Bayer Advanced Tree & Shrub Landscape Formula
Attempting to save at least seven of the majestic ash trees on our property from the emerald ash borer insect invasion that has now arrived in the county next to the one we reside. Each ash tree is neary 100" circumference. It takes nearly an entire gallon per tree. One ounce per inch. This is the second year of treatment for some trees and first year for others. The general tree condition of the trees in the second year of treatment have improved. Tree canopy is a bit thicker and color is slightly darker. I am also aware it may take up to three plus years of treatment to offer maximum protection for tree circumferences larger than 25". No study info on protection efficacy for soil drench applications for exceptionally large trees that I have found. It depends on the uptake amount and speed from the roots to the twigs which is best during the spring leafing time and mid-fall when roots are storing energy for winter. Applications are very easy to do but there is no cost savings between the gallons of regular and double strength even at the reduced rates on line compared to our local garden stores. I have seen no recommendations by any study to use the granular form of this product for protection from the EAB. Judgement is still out on the efficacy of this product against the EAB.

This review is from: Bayer Advanced Tree & Shrub Landscape Formula
I had put down some 6ft pepper trees, 11 of them but their first spring those tender new growth started getting psyllids and it spread to them all. I trimmed the worst off and then treated the trees with the Bayer merit per label recommendation and in a couple of months the infestation was all gone. Came back a little bit the next spring but way less than before so I re-applied without trimming and its all good now.
I had some Calif Live Oaks that were getting those tan sudden oak death spots. They said not much could be done. I tried the Merit and dosed it pretty good and clipped out the spots. I also put on a mask and sprayed those spotted areas; So far so good 2 yr later! Bottom line is that its pricey but IT WORKS and those Live Oaks are old and priceless!

Again I am amazed. All the person with the bad review need do is "Please read the label instructions." This product will not harm bees. It is a wonderful solution to the honeydew drip. It is double strength. It is not expensive compared to the loss of a valuable landscape tree. It does what it claims and does it well. Better than just well! Love your trees and treat them to pennies a day in food and protection. I would suggest if you are not going to read the label to buy the granules. Easier and safer to apply.
