Why Have Three Bottles When All You 'Neem' is One?
St. Louis, MO- Homeowners desire healthy plants and flowers free from harmful insects and disease without buying several different treatment products. While one product may get rid of fungal disease and another may kill insects, Garden SafeŽ Brand FungicideT contains neem oil, an all-natural ingredient that offers 3-in-one protection as a fungicide, insecticide and miticide.
Neem oil, a natural botanical extract from the neem tree and the active ingredient in Garden Safe Brand Fungicide3, has been proven an effective, natural treatment for control of a broad spectrum of insects, mites and fungal diseases. Garden Safe Brand Fungicide3 won't endanger bees, ladybugs and other beneficial insects that visit treated plants.
"For homeowners who are unsure about what is ailing their garden, Fungicide3 is one of the few organic products that demonstrate powerful, residual efficacy against many types of insects and fungal diseases that display similar signs of damage," comments Dan Birkenmeier, Garden Safe Assistant Product Manager.
For effective insect control, the presence of neem oil on plant leaves acts as a repellent, deterring insects from feeding on treated leaves and stems. Neem oil suffocates many small, soft-bodied insects such as aphids, whiteflies and mites on contact. Second, it acts as a growth regulator for many insects, disrupting the molting and metamorphosis stages and inhibiting reproduction.
For control and prevention of fungal diseases such as black spot, powdery mildew and rust, neem oil prevents fungal spores from penetrating plant tissues and slows the advance of fungal diseases. Fungicide3 can be used to treat plants before disease is present.
For maximum efficacy, carefully read the label directions before using a fungicide or insecticide product, and specifically follow the directions to be in compliance with the law.
