Bayer Advanced (Merit) questions

18 years ago

My little apple tree not only survived again this winter, it is looking good and putting out blossoms - YAY! So I went and got a bottle of the Bayer stuff but the directions say that for best results it should be applied in the fall. Will it still work if I use it now? And if I do, will it kill the honeybees and other pollinators once the blossoms are fully out? If so, are there any other types of insecticide that would be better to use? I know we get every nasty insect you can think of on our old tree, which means that in a good year we might harvest a couple of apples, so I am trying to head this problem off at the pass if possible. Thank you all so much!
