It takes very little BT to work. I dont remember exact amount now but maybe 1/2 oz per gal. So you just need a tsp in your sprayer and it wont clog. Just a mist so it doesnt run off. The stuff dries off and is there until it rains. BT works super good, a few bites and the catapillars drop dead.
Thanx again Spaugh. From the label on the BT bottle I'll only need 1/4 to a 1/2 tsp in the sprayer bottle which only holds a quart.
Makes sense that a light mist would be all that is needed. I also was thinking that using a wetter-sticker would help the mist dry off more quickly.
So Spaugh, one question more for you: When a catterpillar has munched on a sprayed leaf and has become innoculated, how long does it generally take for the caterpillar to succumb to the BT infection? Would that happen in only hours or would it take a day or so?
Cheers!
