Sprayed some warrior around 6-6:30 last night. it was pretty humid. Went out, drove home in a dense fog about 9-9:30. Somewhere in the middle of the night it poured like there was no tomorrow. What are the odds that the warrior stuck to the plant? and should i spray again?

thanks

Scott........read your airborn bug count. Consider the need based on the airforce activity. If the spray was dry as it should have been I doubt you were washed off...at least on the bottom of the leaves.

meaning on any given day there will be a variety of insects out and about in your patch. Not all will be of the bad variety. When you spray something like warrior, its pretty non-discriminatory, and will kill the good, as well as the bad. A casual observation of dead insects on leaves, as well as the amount of live ones flying around will give you a good idea of whether the spray was effective.
