Any one ever try Bonide granulated Imidaclaprid before?
Curious of its use.
Growing melons, tomatoes,and maybe a pumpkin this year.

I only use it on my ornamentals but I believe from what I've been told is it doesn't translocate to the fruit. We have vine borers and it's my first defense against attack on my pumpkin vine. many versions available grubex, merit etc.

You do use it around your pumpkins?

Definitely but my pumpkins are ornamental not for consumption! I would feel like a cannibal after all that babying. I apply it early and often for the borers.

my melons and tomatoes are not for consumption either.
Hoping to try an AG this year.
Never seen Imidaclaprid in granulated form.
Only like Bayer tree and shrub concentrate.
