Moisture is Key: These tablets release their active ingredient slowly and need moist soil to work. Water the plant immediately after applying the tablets and keep it regularly watered for 2–3 months.
Placement:
Place the tablet(s) in the planting hole directly under the root ball.
For larger plants (over 1 meter tall), use multiple tablets, spacing them evenly around the plant.
Depth: Dig a hole about 5 cm deep near the roots where the plant absorbs water best.
Cover: Ensure the tablet is fully covered with soil after placement.
First Aid:
If poisoning occurs, contact a doctor or call the Poisons Information Centre at 131 126 (Australia).

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a contact and a systemic insecticide?
A contact insecticide kills pests it touches directly or that walk across a treated surface; it acts quickly but does not last long. A systemic insecticide is taken up into the plant, so sap-sucking and chewing pests are controlled as they feed, with longer protection. Many garden products blend both modes of action.
What controls lawn grubs and armyworm?
Lawn armyworm and sod webworm are controlled with a registered turf insecticide - a synthetic pyrethroid such as bifenthrin for fast knockdown, or a longer-residual product for season-long protection. Water the lawn before and after applying, treat late in the day when the caterpillars become active, and check again after a week.
Are these insecticides safe to use around pets and children?
Follow the label. Most require that people and pets stay off the treated area until the spray has completely dried, typically a few hours. Store all products locked away from children and animals, and never apply near fish ponds or waterways. Withholding periods and restrictions vary by product, so read the safety directions before you buy.
