Thanks for the advice!...how close to the actual base do you pour it? Do you just eye ball the cup measurement? How big is the cap on your bottle? Is it the 16 oz size?

16 ounce bottle
use the cap on bottle

U can pour half a gallon on it if u want too
Pour right at base of stalk so it can go right down to tap root

If ya gotta tought water long ways
gotta make it last for all plants
Why i said a cup

They sell some stuff called orange guard I believe...it's main ingredient is orange d oil...lost two last year to termites.bought the termite poison stakes and put those on the ground around the pots with no bottoms (homemade smarties) and applied the diluted orange guard...didn't take another loss...this year I used it as a preventive and have had no losses...I live in the forrest on five acres and termites will always be close...the stuff sneaks amazing too like orange peels and its organic
