Question From: L. Hodge - GEORGIA
Q: Will neem oil kill the early stages of a red bug/ chigger infestation on my orange trees? Is it safe to use on orange trees?
A: I know that neem is safe for use on orange trees, but cannot advise you its use for red bud /chiggers. It's against the law to use pesticides for reasons not listed on labels, so I recommend you get the advice of a certified arborist. If these are large trees you are wise to have a professional application. Small sprayers are not effective on larger trees.
