Mark,
I use a generic Imidacloprid from Primera One, here in Dayton, Ohio. This product works great and we have had great results. I actually add about 2 oz/m of wetting agent at the same time to help get the product down and thru some thatch and we have been using 0.5 oz/m of the imidacloprid. We then water in after application. I have been doing this the past 4 years and have had great results.
I use a lot of generics primarily because of cost savings, and most of the products I use do a great job. Unfortunately I had some bad luck with a generic product years ago, but have not had a problem since. Best things is if your are hesitant, try the generic this year on some tees or a fairway and compare to the name brand for future reference.
Good Luck
