Debbie from Nassau Ny writes

It is spring in upstate New York. I have vegetable garden, with soil that has caterpillars, yellow eggs.

My garden is 60 square feet. I would like to try Permethrin this year. I am getting mixed advice. Dust and cover soil, liquid, percentage of product to use? I would like to hear your advice and how and what to use. Thank you

Answer:

The Permethrin SFR 36.8% that you are asking about cannot be shipped into the state of NY without a pest control license to purchase it. Permethrin also would not be recommended as the best option for caterpillars or worms in the soil nor is it labeled to be used on edible crops. Most caterpillar control comes from spraying the foliage of the plants they may try to ingest or damage during the first signs of insect activity during the season. A popular choice for this would be Southern Ag Thuricide.
