How to kill leaf footed bugs on Texas Ash tree

[Huntindad]

I have a Texas Ash and it has been infested with... what looks like the leaf footed bug. They are all over the place.

What have y'all used successfully to kill these dang things. They are nasty suckers. This in Travis county.

The product that works the best on these bugs is Thiodan. It comes in a powder and liquid. I would try to find the liquid. Use a couple of drops of dish washing soap with each gallon of spray to improve coverage.

Hoggslayer... you made me look at the title again... wanted to make sure I didn't actually say left instead of leaf

[Huntindad]

Having a hard time finding thiodan. Will start digging deeper into the interweb ...

[Mike Murphey]

I'm sure that is the active ingredient, it may come under a different name...

[Mike Murphey]

Thiodan is a Bayer product...
