What is the product? I never saw the label.

[@jc10907Sealy]

Hey 👋🏻 I’m in Carmel, IN! Found you on KZbin. I have 20 Knockout rosebushes I want to protect. This is good information. Thanks!

[@FamilyFigureHunters]

The spray is called "Bonide Eight Yard & Garden Liquid Insect Killer 32 oz."

[@Linda-wv7ck]

Thanks

[@FamilyFigureHunters]

It does work but these bugs have a tendency to come back if you don’t treat your plants regularly.

[@MoiraMor]

Thank you, I couldn’t figure out what the product he was referring to!?

[@notsuitable7954]

Thank you

[@traviscampbell7565]

Wow great information cause those little slugs or whatever you call them are killing my roses

[@mollydog444]

Some comments are asking if the systemic one will cause harm to bees and butterflies. Can you let us know. Thank you!

[@carmelaaustin3594]

I liked everything about your video

[@lizmiddleton2382]

Thanks for the great info.😊😊

[@sunflowerarts5]

Yes I have seen those bugs and took it out from the rose leaves

[@donkindstedt3466]

Good info. The repeating music is very irritating. You can do great informative videos without music.

[@kathleenmoore535]

Lose the music for sure …most annoying👎

[@stitchedpumpkin5905]

Is there a spot in the video where this is explained without music blasting over him? Is it just my speakers? This is miserable.

[@maryann4622]

What about in October? I have holes on my new David Austin Roses. Should I start this in October?

[@ellagoldie9686]

We had one for 5 yrs. Never had those bugs chew it to death. I planted one at a new house and it gets chewed up all the time.

[@gailrosner8815]

GreT help, thanks!

[@maryannferencak3799]

Very helpful. I knew something was eating my roses and shrubs, but could never find the culprit. Now I know how to treat my plants. I had to watch the video a couple of times because the music wad so distracting (and irritating). Sorry!

[@AjayChaudhary86000]

Good Info.

[@HelenMastache]

Any of those solutions kill beneficial bugs, too. Any other ideas on how to control this pest?

Couldn't find the spray.

Hi One and all what can we use in England for Rose Slugs x

[@chrismaritato8739]

The music is great. Where can I buy it? Thanks.

[@cqammaz53]

What about beneficial insects and worms with these produces?

[@JC-mx1mk]

I know about sevin, but what is the other product? did he say eight? there is no list of the products. where can you purchase them?

[@tobywinter1]

Had them for the first time this year. After they devoured every leave....they devoured the roses themselves.

[@silvertonguedaywalker9116]

Do they stay in ths Compost?

[@macshabaz1463]

You can make your own insecticidal soap by combining 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon of dish washing liquid and 1 cup of water or mixing together 3 tablespoons of soap and 1 gallon of water. Cover the leaves thoroughly with the spray, making sure to coat them both top and bottom.

[@ayseozgulerbay2492]

Thank you I will try ...

[@davidhey376]

My rose bush is absolutely covered on a white powder, also the leaves are curling up. Do I need to destroy the bush? Looking forward to your comments...thank you...

[@wassonnursery]

It could be powdery mildew. For that problem you would need to use a fungicide such as Daconil. Spray the same way as detailed above, every 7-10 days. To limit the problem make sure you are watering in the morning and try not to get the foliage wet.

[@donnamartino4066]

I have a long row of knockout bushes. It will take me forever to hand spray. Is there a solution that attaches to a hose to make spraying more manageable?

[@mzsexidreadz]

I add it to the lawn sprayer bottles for the water hose

[@adamm2716]

my rose's leaves are cracking

[@Preceptor1111]

The product you used is called Eight? Looked for the information under in description. This is exactly what I have going on. I used a spray called Garden Safe Insecticide Soap. Any advice please?

[@wassonnursery]

Insecticidal Soap is usually an all-natural product that is better for the environment. Use this the same way as you would use Eight, just know that it may not be as effective. You may have to do more applications every 5-7 days.

[@Preceptor1111]

Wasson Nursery Really appreciate your response - Thank you Kind Regards-

[@Preceptor1111]

Could someone from your Nursery Post How to Dead Head Knock out Roses? Thanks. For considering-

[@wendy2297]

@@Preceptor1111 I just pluck off the dead roses about 1 inch down the stem. I can usually do it with my fingers. Sometimes I need to cut it though.

[@phungin]

Good info but Please do videos without music. Very difficult to hear you.

[@Ivat20]

I wish you list all those products in comments

[@msnyder681]

You used Eight. When can we use Seven and the other product? Can I use the three of them - on different days but all of them? Not only Eight as you did.

[@wassonnursery]

You could alternate between Eight and Sevin but keep the timing of the sprays once every 7-10 days.

[@cmorti2]

My rose bush leaves look eaten and skeletonized there's also tiny black things on my leaves but crush in my fingers i can't find anything to tell me what it is

[@barbarablonsky7521]

Thank you! A quick explanation and an easy answer 👍👍👍

[@nicholejeralds660]

once i spray and notice that my rose bush is doing better should i just trim off the dead leaves or what do you suggest to bring the rose bush back to a nice and healthy state?

[@wtfhappened1965]

I need this answer too beautiful! :)

[@worldpeace5853]

I did trim the leaves.

[@thethomasfamily4024]

Yes, I am wondering the same. Should we trim the plant back to remove most of the eaten plant?

[@Johnny53kgb-nsa]

I sprayed my roses for black spot with baking soda, vinegar, vegetable oil mixed with water in a spray bottle, and now I have black spots ( not the normal black spot fungus) on the tips of the leaves. Any suggestions, did I maybe mix too strong, should I eliminate one product ? Thanks, John

[@mzsexidreadz]

I could be wrong but I think you may be the baking soda and vinegar. First time I heard vinegar so eliminate that

[@anitakittredge7307]

Yes. Get rid of music.

[@royanbarryman4779]

I fully agree with this person I am posting here his comments. I tried so hard to get the name of the products but I couldn't. Thanks NEMO NEMO 11 hours ago The worst camera man!!!

[@yunusbadsha]

Why the music Can't hear what you saying

[@wendy2297]

Is there a natural solution like soap or essential oils of some kind? My roses have not even bloomed yet but were looking gorgeous (the leaves) and then I noticed the small holes in the leaves. I have about 10 knockouts along the entire porch. Help!! I have small dogs and don't want to use chemicals that are harmful to them and to the bees. Thank you so much!

[@Blue_Azure101]

Yes there is! Neem oil emulsion works very well but you have to apply once a week or use a chitosan spray which is like a wax coating

[@ramonabeth]

Would have been great if you would have also addressed how effective Neem Oil is for those wanting an organic option. Also that background music is distracting.

[@elizabethsmith9488]

Will these insecticides harm other plants 🪴close to the roses? Or will it harm other animals aka birds pets? How effective do you find the folk remedy of soapy water?

[@maureencrowley6980]

a woman from the old country was asked how she got such gorgeous rose bushes dumped her dishpan water onto her rose bushes -

[@KnocheSN]

I just released Ladybugs in my rose garden. I found this video and I'm certain this rose slug is my problem. Will the Ladybugs eat the rose slugs? If I were to use any kind of pesticide would that kill my lady bugs?

Leaves

[@marisinfarb6258]

What are the names of the products? The first one was not at all clear... The music should not be added to the vedio...

[@dclaet1135]

I'm concerned that these chemicals will harm beneficial insects. What effect do these products have on the natural food chain? How do they affect butterflies and the birds that eat these insects? There must be a better solution.

Me too Id rather use something that won't harm.

[@GardenMinistry.]

I've been using neem oil which I believe is a natural remedy I bought it at Walmart around $4. If I don't go in and check once a week, I could miss if they come back. If they're back, neem oil again. My knock out roses look pretty good
