Suitable Insecticide For Scale On Weigela

Question From: NORTH CAROLINA
Q: Is "Eight" a suitable insecticide to use on weigela plants. Can it be used to combat scale? If not, what insecticide would you recommend?

A: I don't recommend chemical insecticides as they are not registered in all states. I suggest you take a cutting to an independent garden center or nursery for an accurate ID and control. You can also call the 800 number on the container. Best and Happy Yardening Nancy.
