Conifer Bark Beetle Abacide (Abamectin) Study
Abacide 2: Three Ips trials evaluated the duration of 1) two high rates (0.4 and 0.8 g AI/inch DBH) of abamectin in 2008-2011; 2) three lower rates (0.4, 0.2 and 0.1 g AI/inch DBH of abamectin after application in fall 2010 or spring 2011; and 3) azadirachtin (Aza-Sol®) and dinotefuran (Safari®) applied via bole spray, soil drench, or trunk injection in spring 2011.
Some Internal Effects of Mauget Tree Injections
BY: Dr. Alex Shigo, Walter E. Money and Dale I. Dodds
Journal of Arboriculture 3(11): November 1977
Negligible amounts of discolored wood and cambial dieback were associated with control Mauget injection wounds made 1 year earlier on redmaple, white oak, and shagbark hickory. Injured tissues associated with all wounds were compartmentalized in the wood present at the time of Injection; wood that formed subsequently was not infected.
Armillaria Comparison Treatment Study
A study conducted by Heather Vallier, Ph.D., Plant Pathologist, Cambria, California, comparing 1 vs. 2 annual applications of various trunk micro-injected materials to suppress Oak Root Fungus (Armillaria mellea) over a 2 year period on Blue Gum (Eucalyptus globulus).

A study conducted jointly by Michigan State University, the USDA Forest Service and USDA APHIS.
Emerald Ash Borer, Imicide® and Inject-A-Cide® B
A study conducted by Deborah McCullough et al from Michigan State University and associates from the USDA evaluated trunk-injected imidacloprid and Bidrin insecticides for the control of Emerald Ash Borer.
Efficacy of Trunk Micro-Injection to Control Elm Anthracnose in Chinese Elm (Ulmus Paravifolia)
An Elm Anthracnose study conducted by Terry Tattar Ph.D., Arnold Farran, Charles Dodds and Kevin Cochran on two locations in San Diego County. Elm Anthracnose, also known as Black Spot of Elms, is one of a group of foliage diseases of deciduous hardwood trees caused by fungi known as anthracnose diseases.
Erythrina Gall Wasp
A study conducted by the University of Hawaii at Manoa that evaluated the chemical control of Erythrina Gall Wasp.
Efficacy of Trunk Micro-injected Dinocide on Scale Insects
A stand of many heavily infested California Pepper Trees Schinus molle (also known as American pepper, Peruvian peppertree, escobilla, false pepper, molle del Peru, pepper tree, peppercorn tree, Californian pepper tree, pirul and Peruvian mastic) located at Old Ranch Country Club, Seal Beach, California, was micro-injected at root crown level approximately 6 inches above soil level with treatments of 2ml, 3ml and 4 ml Dinocide.

Pine Resin Test…
TEST PINE TREES for Mauget Micro-Injections…
Some species of trees in the genus Pinus have very well developed resin ducts in their xylem. During much of the year these trees produce a rapid and sustained flow of resin in response to any wound in either the bark or woody issues. Injection of materials into these trees during these times has been difficult or impossible even with very low volume micro-injection capsules.
Palm Petiole Injections Study.. Fla
Palm Petiole Injections with Mauget Products have been employed successfully for decades.
It is a fast and easy method for injecting Palm trees effectively rather then into the trunk.
No damage occurs to the leaves or the trunks.
Materials such as Antibiotics, Insecticides, Fungicides and Nutrients will translocate throughout the entire tree using this method.
It is an alternative method of injecting is the bases of leaf petioles was found to be of definite
therapeutic value in diseased palms.
