Got ya.I stand corrected...I should have been more specific. Only labeled for trunk injections for vascular wilt diseases (specifically Oak wilt and Dutch Elm Disease). (corrected in above post as well).
Arborjet labels Propizole as a micro or macro
Mauget has Tebuject (Tebuconazole) labeled for micro
Both list a host of diseases including both DED and OW..... Most things I read elsewhere (University and USFS publications) pretty much set the standard of Propiconizole for Oak wilt and Thiabendazole for Dutch Elm Disease.
Note, efficacy is NOT a requirement to be on the label. EPA restricts what is on the label and they are judging offsite impacts, etc... they are not evaluating whether the product works.
(That is another conversation, but I'd argue they probably should evaluate efficacy because everything has at least some impact of the micro environment around, and using unnecessary and ineffective products means either more treatment or impact with no benefit. I think their argument back would be they aren't supposed to weigh cost:benefit - just cost (cost as in negative environmental impact, not cost as in dollars), and if that is too high, they will not label a product even if there is economic benefit. At least that's what its supposed to be - I'm looking at you, dicamba!)
And I could rant about this but the snake oil products that say they treat something with zero data to back it and labels listing non effective treatments really grinds my gears. The propizol label really set me off a few weeks ago due to putting a drill bit size on the label, which confused a production worker. Extremely inappropriate for arborjet to do so, and they should know better.
These products do. not. work. when micro injected for DED, sycamore anthracnose and BLD. (This is not directed at you ATH)
