> Can you obtain imadocloprid in Canada?

I don't know, but... Bayer sells a product in the US intended to kill
beetle grubs in lawns. It is called Bayer Grub Granules. The active
ingredient is imidacloprid. Imidacloprid is a systemic insecticide,
absorbed into the roots. The granules can be put in potting soil when
repotting plants and they work wonders on cacti and other summer-growing
succulents. I don't have any problems with mealies in the winter so I
haven't treated any of my winter-growers (which I am lucky enough to be
able to grow outside.)
