Is Scotts Turf Builder SummerGuard safe to use around fruit bearing trees?

I applied summer guard to lawn adjacent to fruit trees. Will the fruit from the trees be safe to eat with exposure from the insecticides in the summer guard ?

Answer:

Since the Scotts Turf Builder SummerGuard Lawn Food with Insect Control is not labeled to be used around anything edible, we would recommend keeping applications outside of the dripline of the fruit trees.  We would recommend checking directly with Scotts for advice if already applied.  You can reach them at they can be reached at 800-543-TURF (8873)
