This is a "summer" oil so it can be applied when leaves are out and up to temperatures about 90F.
Pests do not migrate. They survive on your landscape plants and fruit trees until next year when they lay more eggs and start the process all over again. This is your chance to suffocate them!
Insects controlled include:
Aphids, caterpillars, mites, leafhoppers, peach twig borer, scale insects and many others!
Application:
Pick a warm day with no wind.
Use 3 to 4 oz of oil mixed together with 96 to 97 oz of water and mix thoroughly. Spray the trunks and large limbs of fruit trees and ornamental trees and shrubs from the base to as high as possible.
To be effective the oil spray must come in contact with the overwintering pest.
Ultrafine oil, 2 1/2 gal. |
