I am not putting it on the plants leaves, buds or fruit but just on the base of the stem and the mulch right next to it. This is where the first SVBs always lay their eggs and start the journey to destroying my squash. I use a small bulb duster and just dust out a little bit so that when I am finished there is a little dust on the bottom few inches of the stem and out about a half inch onto the mulch or soil. I'll try to take a picture and show you if I can remember to do it.
