Arbor Systems
Greyhound insecticide
The Greyhound insecticide is for controlling webworm, caterpillars, mites, leafminers and nematodes. As a preventive, the product should be applied in early spring, prior to insect activity in the tree. As a curative, it can be applied as needed spring through fall, as long as bark is pliable enough to accept the chemical injections. One application provides season-long control.

Mauget
Dinocide
Dinocide, a new, fast-acting tree injection product, is the first tree injection insecticide containing dinotefuran, according to the company. Dinotefuran, the active ingredient, is a translaminar that can pass from a tree’s xylem to its phloem. This makes the product effective against certain boring insects, which do their damage in the phloem layer. Dinocide is for use on forests, parks and ornamental trees and can yield results in as little as three days.
