    Did The Job!

    By Rebecca on 07/01/2020

    This is the first year I ever had to deal with tent caterpillars and it was shocking how many there were in my fruit trees. I called up DoMyOwn who recommended this Monterery BT spray. I have several beehives so it was important that whatever I used, it be safe for bees. I gave the trees a good spray and saw very positive results the next day. Now the caterpillars are gone and the trees are regaining their health. The key is to interrupt to catch the caterpillars when you first see them, when they are small. I'm so glad I found DoYourOwn.

Q
How much Monterey B.t. Ready-to-Spray Insecticide would I need to treat 25 arborvitae trees that are 10 feet tall at least? A 32 oz bottle covers 3000 sq ft but that is difficult to convert to the number of trees.
A

Monterey B.t. Ready-to-Spray Insecticide is applied at a rate of 32 oz per 3000 sq ft. So if you are wanting to apply to all 25 trees you will need at least 8 bottles (possibly more or less) as one bottle should approximately cover 3-4 trees. We would recommend getting 1 or 2 bottles first and seeing how far it goes then moving forward from there.
