Warrior is the same active ingredient (11.4% Lambda-cyhalothrin) as Triazicide Once & Done is only .5% Lambda-cyhalothrin.

Interestingly, neither Warrior or Triazicide is labeled for SVB but we know that Warrior is used at 3 oz per acre or .8 mls per 1000 sq ft.

Since Warrior is 23 times stronger than Triazicide we multiply 3 oz per acre by 23 = 69 oz Triazicide per acre.

69 oz (acre) divided 43.56 = 1.58 oz Triazicide per 2 gallons water per 1000 sq ft.

This does not constitute a recommendation to use a pesticide in a manner inconsistent with it's labeling. Always read & follow all pesticide labels.

I've used Triazicide the last 2 years at the recommended rate (1 Tablespoon per gallon) and have had no problems with borers.
