Google "products with dinotefuran" but I would not use it outside or on anything where an animal or good bug might be exposed. Its a very general systemic, that means the plant becomes poisonous and anything that takes a bite (including nectar) will die. An indoor Ficus has a very low risk of poisoning anything else. I suggested dinotefuran because it is the ONLY product that will kill hard scale.
