Default Tree Sterilization

Washington DC uses Pinscher growth regulator on female ginkgoes to manage litter nuisance. Also said to be good on sweetgums. Any other success stories with this or other products?

Interesting to have an injectable for control. I have used Florel (foliar spray) with limited success. Last time I used it it was at a large inner city outdoor courtyard night club. It was breezy and would have loved to have the option of an injection.

I know Sean Freeman was looking for a controlled application and will see this if he has not already discovered this option.
