The 1L pack is ready to use, so there's no mixing or measuring. You just shake and spray. It's built for flowering plants, ornamental gardens, and indoor and outdoor pot plants, and it's worth knowing up front that it's not for use on edible plants.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat It Controls\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrifend covers three jobs at once:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInsects, including aphids, thrips, whitefly, budworm and earworm caterpillars.

It's absorbed into the plant and moves through its tissue, so it gives longer-lasting protection against fungal disease and can reach into new growth rather than just coating the surface. The insect control, tau-fluvalinate, works differently: it kills insects by contact and by stomach action, so pests are hit when the spray lands on them or when they feed on treated leaves. The same active handles two-spotted mite. So the disease control is systemic, while the insect and mite control is contact and stomach action, which is why thorough spray coverage still matters for the pest side.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow to Use It\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShake the bottle well, then spray evenly over the plant, covering both the upper and lower surfaces of the leaves where pests and disease take hold.
