Pest Alert

Many garden pests are still active in the garden at this time of year and you can use a Yates BioGro approved organic solution now, to protect your fruit trees, vegetables, indoor plants and ornamentals.

Nature’s Way Citrus & Ornamental Insect Gun is a Pyrethrum and Oil combination insecticide, with twin modes of action against garden pests. It controls scale, aphids, caterpillars, leafhoppers, mealybug, thrips, whitefly, mites and ants.

It is derived from natural sources – pyrethrum daisy, and canola oil, and contains added seaweed to deliver relief from plant stress, and aid recovery from pest and insect damage.

It is ready to use, in a handy spray gun and has a short one day withholding period.
