BIOGARLIC  BFA organic   

Pick up any garden book or magazine and you will find a recipe to make a garlic spray! BioGarlic is made from pure garlic juice. When applied, the strong garlic odour dissipates within a few minutes of application but remains offensive to insect pests. It can be applied to all plants by saturating the foliage, it is safe to use, handle and store and is non-toxic to humans and animals. The main advantage of using BioGarlic is that instead of harmful chemicals that may be hazardous to humans, animals and beneficial insects you are using a super concentrated food grade product. Mix 10 ml to 1 litre of water so that you get 25L of spray for every 250ml concentrate.

NATRASOAP  

Natrasoap is a soap spray made from potassium derived from vegetable oils. It is more effective than homemade soap sprays, leaves a zero residue, is totally biodegradable and will control most soft-shelled insects on contact including aphids, two-spotted mites, whiteflies, fungus gnats, thrips and mealy bugs. It works by blocking the insect’s breathing pores and dissolving its outer covering, resulting in dehydration. There is no withholding period and it is non-toxic to mammals, birds and bees. Using ordinary soap as a spray should be avoided, as it will build undesirable levels of sodium in the soil and risks burning the leaves. Do not apply Natrasoap when temperatures are above 30°C. Suggested application rate is 10-20 ml per litre of water.

Spraytech Oil is a class of products applied in large scale farming applications (tractor mounted spray rigs) and used to help stick a spray to a plant's leaf surface. Combining the benefits of emulsifiable vegetable oil and non-ionic surfactants, it improves the performance of most pesticides, herbicides, insecticides or fungicides, by enveloping each chemical molecule, protecting it from breakdown in the spray vat and out in the field after application. This encapsulation will increase spray efficacy whilst reducing loss and odour. All Natrasoap labels recommend the use of Spraytech oil. Green Harvest does not stock this product as we feel for home garden applications, small frequent and targeted use of Natrasoap is more suitable and less expensive. This is in line with instructions provided with the smaller size soap spray sold as Nature’s Way Mite & Insect Killer.

ECO-OIL               BFA organic

eco-oil is a registered miticide/Insecticide

It is a botanical oil that contains canola oil, eucalyptus oil, melaleuca oil and several surfactants. Surfactants help the oil stick to the leaf. It controls pests by contact, so complete coverage of plants is important. For best results spray at the first sign of infestation. Repeat application may be necessary. Eco-Oil controls citrus leafminer, scale, two-spotted mite, aphids, whitefly and various sap-sucking insects. Oil sprays should not be used at temperatures above 35°C. Do not apply to plants suffering heat or moisture stress. Application rate is 5-10mL per litre of water. Material Safety Data Sheet

 

How does it work?

When eco-oil is applied directly onto an insect, including aphids, mites and whiteflies it blocks the breathing holes and prevents the carbon dioxide from being expelled from the body. This effectively smothers the insect.

When eco-oil is applied to citrus leaves it prevent the nocturnal citrus leafminer moth from landing and laying her eggs into the leaves. Both the smell and the oil layer left by the spray deters the moth.

 

Benefits of using eco-oil

  • eco-oil has no significant impact on beneficial insect numbers

  • under sunlight eco-oil dissipates faster than petroleum-based oils, resulting in less risk of phototoxicity

  • there is no withholding period when sprayed on edible crops

  • there is no chemical residue left on plants

  • no protective clothing needs to be worn

  • it smells better than petroleum-based oils

  • it is manufactured in Australia using Australian grown canola oil, which helps support Australian farmers

PEST OIL

Pest Oil Insect Control Spray is based on petroleum oil, it works by smothering insects. It can be used on all stages of scale insects but has the greatest impact at the 'crawler' stage. The 'crawlers' emerge at a different time depending on the type of scale but most emerge in the December to February period. Correct scale identification and timing of the spray will improve the impact of any oil spray. Oils generally have a low impact on beneficial insects. A big advantage of this new generation Pest Oil is the low application rate at 5ml to a litre, so the product goes a long way. Advances in oil technology mean that this oil can be used all year round without damage to plants, up to a temperature of 35°C. Pest Oil will control: red, white wax, pink wax, black, soft brown, grapevine, San Jose and oyster shell scale; two-spotted spider mite, aphids, white fly and mealy bugs. Pest Oil is the first registered non-toxic control for citrus leafminer; it works by forming a protective film on immature leaves, which the adult leafminer moths avoid. A Landline program on the ABC reported a trial mixing 1% oil with Bt to give excellent results against Heliothis. Material Safety Data Sheet
