will it damage shrubs and flowers?

Keep the spray away from any type of ornamental flowers or Shrubs. It is made for lawn weed control only, not flower beds. You may try using preen granules around your flower beds. If you use colored mulch around those flowers and shrubs you will help control the weed population and enhance the beauty of the shrubs and flowers. Hope this helps. Steve

I've used it for small bushes. It works fine. Just try to keep it out of the real tiny limbs as this will sometimes knock the chain off.

Yes, it will. It is designed to kill just about any living tree, shrub or plant. Be careful.

Depends on the flower, but yes it will kill most vegetation that is not a type of grass.

I don't know round part plants, but I know that it kills every vegetation growing. It will not destroy any root systems, but just the above ground parts of the plants.

I experienced no issues with plants or palms in southern Georgia using this product. It will make the yard and plants smell a little difret but other than that you should have no issues what's your plants outside or inside.

Not sure about Bamboo but it can be used on bushes and plants. Its used around the outside of houses as a barrier. I actually used it on my little fir trees for mites last year and it didnt hurt the trees at all. If you google it you can get the pdf label off the bottle and read it.

Ha! Me too. I just used this a couple weeks ago. Didn't do a thing to the junipers. I have some Virginia Creeper that is growing over my junipers. I cut into the vine and brushed it with some of the vine killer. I will post my pictures on my review of what happened. It killed the leaves. The vine doesn't look too healthy now but the junipers are fine. What I should do is cut down to the ground and brush the vines, but they are in the neighbor's yard. I'll try that too later. But I did kill most of a tree in between my roses. Did not harm them at all.

I used it to kill ash saplings, some up to 3" in diameter, that were growing in the rows between pine/spruce/fir on my Christmas tree farm. I have not seen any damage to the Christmas trees.

Yes, but you should consider that it will kill all insect life that comes into contact with it, including ones beneficial to the garden. I wouldn't want a completely insect-free zone for very long in my garden.

It DOES kill bushes. When you mix it, just spray it on the BUSH. It will kill it dead, dead, dead. I did it to a honeysuckle vine that was massive. It is no more. Hooray!!!!

As an air plant only needs a mist, and not soaking, I feel the mist would not hurt the sand or wood. If you plan to pour water over the plant, yes it would ruin the sand and wood.

I found this comment from Ecosmart on the net. "Can I use your outdoor insecticides on or around my trees, shrubs or plants?" Our insecticides will not harm your plants if applied per the label directions. Some plants may be sensitive to our oils under certain conditions. Do not spray on newly planted cuttings, plant stressed by drought or when temperatures exceed 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not spray the blooms directly. It is recommended to always test a small area first.

It can but not recommended because it can burn the folage depending on the tree type. You need to be clear what kind of problem you are trying to handle. Contact me at 928-343-2729 and I can help you determine if this is really what you need to be considering. I am a licensed chemical supplier. Thanks, Rick

It shouldn't as it is really designed for pests. I would avoid putting direct, undiluted product directly on the flowers,shrubs, etc....I have not used mine yet, so I cannnot rate it's effectiveness yet. From the reviews, it sounds like it will work fairly well.

I think it depends if you spray early enough. I have used it for years and never had issues, until this year. The flower beds in my new home were infested with just about every kind of bug you can imagine. The Ortho worked on everything except the Japanese beetles, the difference this year is having sprayed in the summer instead of spring. I ended up using Garden Tech's Sevin 5% dust and had great results. I was so fed up as the beetles were annihilating this gorgeous rose bush and I wasn't getting to enjoy it. I doused the bush with the dust, the directions say to use a thin layer. I probably could have gotten away with a thin layer but I was so fed up with those pests. Some of them immediately started to try and fly away others immediately fell off. Within a week the bush looked so much better! There is still damage from the beetles but there has been zero damage to the roses that have bloomed since. I definitely recommend the dust if the beetles are already an out of control issue.

Yes. Be very careful NOT to get it on any other plant life you do not want to kill.
