Does this work on scale?

Yes! I would recommend removing current scale, but this will prevent scale for 8 weeks and often longer in my experience

Is it safe to be used on orchids, i.e. phalaenopsis? If so, in what quantities?

Yes, I used this to get rid of a fungus gnat infestation in three orchids. Each plant is in an 8" plastic container -- not sure of the volume. For about 6 weeks, every other watering I removed the top 2 inches of bark and sprinkled 1 teaspoon on the surface. I also thoroughly rinsed the bark that I removed in order to rinse off any eggs or pupae. There never was any larvae because I let them dry out a min of 10 days between watering. Then, I replaced the bark. After 2 months the plants were fungus gnat free. This is the only product I've found that actually works on fungus gnats. I tried mosquito bits which seemed to help control the population but did not get rid of them.

Bottle & description states “other listed insects”. Is it possible for maker/manufacturer supply the list of other insects?

Please click on the label: https://www.bonide.com/assets/Products/Labels/l951.pdf for more information on other insects listed. You can find this information on page 3 under "Insects Controlled."

Is it safe to use on indoor citrus trees?

It's the same activite ingredient imidacloprid as BioAdvanced 701520A Fruit, Citrus & Vegetable Insect Control for Edible Gardening. Do what you will with that information. Bioadvace says not to eat fruit treated with imidacloprid for 90 days.
