It is labeled on a number of crop groups including leafy vegetables (except brassicas), fruiting vegetables, and cucurbits. The label lists control of a number of “worm” species as well as suppression of leafhoppers and whiteflies. Please see the label for use rates and restrictions http://www.cdms.net/LDat/ld8TA000.pdf.
