After injecting hydrogen peroxide in any holes I could see, I applied diatomaceous earth, manure compost, and soft rock phosphate (1/3 each) in water. Due to recent rains I need to reapply. But is there something else I can due to help get rid of the borers? Also, should I paint the trunks with watered down, white latex paint at some point?
We are not honestly not sure what to recommend for almond trees that have borers that can be used systemically. Most systemic products prohibit use on almond trees. We recommend you contact your local department of agriculture for a specific recommedation. We apologize we could not make a recommendation in this case.
