I may be beating a dead horse here, but my search on the forum didn't produce anything specifically related to a few questions.
1. Using a systemic such as imidacloprid, if the psyllid larvae has to chew into the foliage, thereby infecting the tree with HLB, what is the point in using it?
2. Does the psyllid larvae bore into tender new growth only? So when the new growth has hardened the larvae will not bore?
3. If one or a few larvae bore into foliage does that automatically infect the tree, or does it take an infestation to cause HLB?
4. Has anyone here experienced success using imidacloprid to keep HLB at bay?
Thanks
