I suggest any of the Bayer or Or tho products for insects. Get a granular fertilizer with the product if you can. Or cygon works but is tough to find. Read the labels to find out what they control. Some may not control spider mites. Others may target only certain insects so read and follow label directions.

Hi,
I use systemic soil drench concentrate made by Bayer.
I mix it fairly strong in a 5 gal. bucket and pour it around the base of the tree or bushes/vines I'm treating.
It works great for the roses, against aphids and such.
It works great for the other bushes that get treated.
I would use it on most any plantings I have, provided that the plantings are going to be eaten by humans.
I believe it is called "Advantage", or "Advance".
Start your drenching just as your roses are breaking dormancy, then again after they leaf-out.
This protection/treatment supposed to last 1 year.
Hope this helps,
Dave

That can only be answered well by knowing what the pests/insects are.

Orthene is a good start. Easy to find.
