Hi. All. I have a lemon tree 3 feet tall and 4 feet wide with 20 lemons all different sizes and I have sprayed it with a bug killer POVADO 5 weeks ago I sprayed the leaves and the earth because the leaves were sticky is it safe to eat the lemons now.If not what can you suggest I do. Windmill.

Hi Windmill,
personally I'd wait for about 6weeks from when you sprayed; just to be on the safe side. Pravardo is a systemic insecticide and kills the pests when they feed on the plant sap. So although you'd remove the lemon peel the insecticide will be inside. Is there any instructions on the packet?
