It is ideal for use on fruit and vegetables (same day spray and eat), and for use on garden plants. Also for the control of pernicious scale on dormant roses.
- Efekto Oleum concentrate controls aphids, scale insects, mealybugs, red spider mites and Australian bugs. It is ideal for use on fruit trees, citrus (same day spray and eat), and for use on garden plants and shrubs.
