Pesticides with the active ingredient imidacloprid are effective choices for the Jatropha tree.

Specifically, the Jatropha tree tends to be described as pest-free. But it may have problems with cutworms (Agrotis ipsilon), stink bugs (Nezara viridula) and tip borer caterpillars (Dichocrosis punctiferalis). Imidacloprid may be applied as a soil drench to solve soil pests such as cutworms. But it also may be applied as foliar spray or trunk injection to solve above ground pests.
