There are cautions to consider.Spinosad works internally on critters.The puncture at feeding will let the Spinosad activate in the organs of the "target pest"If your target is below on lower leaves spray there during non feeding times for the chance of a wayward beneficial(bees,wasps,ladybugs etc.)to ingest and die.Remember the stuff will carry through to the beneficials offspring.And no Spinosad residue should be applied directly to flowering tops if you can avoid.Good luck.
