Is your garden struggling with pests or fungal issues? Horticultural oil could be your garden’s best friend! Here’s why:
Natural Pest Control
Horticultural oil is an eco-friendly way to combat common garden pests like aphids, spider mites, whiteflies, and scale insects. It smothers insects and their eggs, breaking the life cycle without harsh chemicals.
Fungus Prevention
Applied correctly, horticultural oil can suppress fungal diseases like powdery mildew, rust, and black spot by creating a protective barrier on plant surfaces.
Safe & Eco-Friendly
Made from refined plant-based oils or petroleum, horticultural oil is safe for humans, pets, and beneficial insects when used as directed. It biodegrades quickly, making it a sustainable option.
Year-Round Use
- Dormant Season: Apply during winter to kill overwintering pests and fungal spores.
- Growing Season: Use lighter applications during the growing season to tackle active infestations.
Easy to Use
Mix with water according to the label instructions and spray directly onto plants. Be sure to cover all leaf surfaces for the best results.
Pro Tip: Apply horticultural oil on calm, mild days to avoid burning leaves. Avoid using it during extremely hot or cold weather.
