This will be used on permanent indoor plants only as it’s lethal to other bugs outside like bees. But like the title asks has anyone replaced bonide with bioadvanced with adjusted rates to mimic the same percentage of imidacloprid?
Check the sds to see if it harms plants. If not, should be fine.
There are literally over a hundred products with the same active ingredient, some of which are a good bit cheaper. Why would you want to use a granular product formulated for termites and intended for outdoor use?
I’ve resisted using anything systemic indoors. If you can smell a chemical, you’re absorbing it. We have formaldehyde and plenty of other toxic chemicals leeching out of products around us without adding a systemic pesticide to our indoor air. Of course it is your choice whether or not to use it.
