This Bayer Advanced product is only for flowering plants, trees and shrubs, not on anything edible

I've used them on strawberries, melons, and bananas. I think they would even go through the skin on an apple.

I have used this on my apple trees early in the morning. This was after flowering, it was in treatment of rust. The neem oil was effective, but a temporary solution. I ended up removing all of the cedar from the property as a more permanent solution. This neem oil is highly effective in controlling garden pests, mold, fungus, etc. We've been extremely impressed!

Better ask the manufacturer. My opinion is : Don't use it on any plants you will eat!!

I may be mistaken, but I do not believe that it is recommended as a systemic - you can, however, spray the tree thoroughly. I have used it twice (4x actually - 2 in the fall and 2 in the spring) for Black Knot Fungus on cherry and plum trees. For fruit, be careful of the mixture ratio so that you do not 'burn' the tree.

Yes it is organic and can be used on any type of editable fruit or veggy. I use it on my tomatoes ect

I don't know the answer to that. Use it for my fruit trees. You may find your answer when you GOOGLE it. They have wealth of info. HANS7115

absolutely. It is useful for spraying on fruit trees while still in their dormant stage. You must cover the entire tree including the trunk to kill the eggs of insects and it will also help in reducing fungus to some extent. You should not use this spray once the buds have opened.

Although I don't have a specific answer to your question, I know that it is a very gentle and natural product, do I would think it would be safe on most any surface.

I think it should work just fine. It worked really well on my Meyers Lemon tree. It had lost all it's leaves but after feeding it with this fertilizer, a second flush of leaves appeared, blossomed and set fruit. Just be aware that this product does have an odor to it, which I found offensive. I quit using it in the house but will use again once I move my plants outside during warm weather.

My gut feel is no.. because the insecticide is absorbed and kills insects eating the bark and leaves, it's also going to be in the flowers and fruit.. Just to be sure I went out to look at the label.. it very clearly says "not for trees raised for food".. If you have fruit tress with problems, topical sprays before the fruit set are the only way.. or buy lady bugs and preying mantis and release in the spring.

You should not use this on trees with fruit consumed by people. Also it works best when applied in early spring before leaves have formed. Not saying you can't apply now, June 2, but you may still have more bugs eating leaves when Japanese beetles emerge for example. As for fruit, realize this product is absorbed through the entire tree. You do not want to consume that do you?

It most certainly can. So far as I know it is quite safe and will not harm strawberries.

I have an Asian Pear tree (20th Century variety) and have used this product on it during the dormant months. I haven't had to battle fire blight, but the tree hasn't shown any ill effects of the spray.

I would not use this directly on the fruit. If you can spray the grass without getting on the parts you eat, than it should be fine. Grass B Gonis designed to access the roots through the blades if grass. Generally, not recommended for veggies. Good luck

It should be okay around established trees, but not saplings. The original use for this chemical was along fence lines, so older trees are robust enough to stand up. I would be careful about how much you use for this application. I use about a 1/2 cup in 2 gallons of water and apply at a medium spray from my hand held tank. Diuron is non-soluble, so you will need to really shake it up to suspend it in water.

I believe its safe on all plants. I have many different plants in my home including bonzai and they're all fine after using this product. Goodluck.
