Pine Moth Spray

[Ed Sievers]

I got an article on Pine Moths in Nebraska from the
University's web site here and it lists several sprays that
are effective in controlling the 3 species of moths which
can destroy a pine tree (I did, in fact, lose 1 "Austrian"
pine last year). Problem: most of the chemicals they
recommend must be applied by licensed applicators......(who
almost NEVER show up.) The article lists "dimethoate" and
does not indicate that its use is restriced as Lindane and
some of the others are. Anybody know of a "Brand Name" for
dimethoate?
TIA-- Ed S with a brand new respirator....... and an MT
sprayer :o(

Yup......I thought of that a couple of hrs after my post,
and you are so right Tom! There must be 15 different brand
names listed. Next time I'll try it BEFORE I post :o)
Thanks, Ed S.
