Bayer Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control is mixed at 0.5 oz. per 10 square feet, but that application rate may vary depending on the type of tree you are treating. Please refer to the product label for specific instructions.
The Vegetable/Pepper section of the Bayer Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control Product Label states the following:
1. Measure the area of the vegetable row to be treated. Note: a row that is 1 ft. X 10 ft. is 10 square feet.
2. Add 0.5 ounce of product per 10 square feet of vegetable row to be treated to 1 quart of water.
3. Spread the mixture evenly over the vegetable row to be treated.
If you only have about 4 sq/ft you would cut that down as best as you can to somewhere around 0.20 oz in 1 quart of water and treat the plant once for the year. There is a 21 day pre harvest interval for peppers per the label.
Bayer Advanced Fruit, Citrus and Vegetable Insect Control is labeled for leaf hoppers however it is a systemic insecticide, therefore will not offer an immediate knockdown.
