Q.Will Spraying Cinnamon On And Around My Lemon And Orange Tree Affect Bees From Pollinating?

Zone 92780 | Anonymous added on February 17, 2025 | Answered

I have several varieties of pests on and around my orange and lemon trees (I only have one of each tree). Spiders, ants, fruit flies, scales occasionally, and mice are a big issue and my main concern. I am worried that if I spray cinnamon it will deter bees from pollinating.

Avoid spraying open blooms and it shouldn't be a problem.
