Monterey Horticultural Oil is a concentrated mineral-oil spray for controlling labeled insects, mites and diseases on listed garden plants. This 1-quart concentrate is OMRI Listed for organic gardening and can be used during dormant and growing seasons according to the plant-specific label directions.
Oil provides contact control of susceptible eggs, immature stages and soft-bodied adult pests. Listed targets include aphids, mites, scale and whiteflies. Thorough coverage of the affected plant surfaces is important; consult the label for the exact pest, disease and plant combination.
Use the dilution rate for your specific plant and target pest in the label tables. Partially fill the sprayer with water, add the measured concentrate, finish filling and mix well. Agitate regularly while spraying.
Cover upper and lower leaf surfaces and the canopy without substantial runoff. Follow all sensitive-plant, seasonal and application restrictions. Do not apply to drought- or moisture-stressed plants. Labeled edible crops may be treated through harvest day when used as directed.
