A pyrethrin spray -- alcohol based -- also will work, but the oil spray is the least toxic. HOWEVER, test the spray (whatever you use) on a spare larch first. Oils often aren't recommended for coniferous trees.

Re: [IBC] ANTS MINING SCALE ON MY GOLDEN LARCH
Also should i keep it in shade after the maliation dries on it or move
it back up into the sun. Should i rinse the needles off with water?
