Organica K+ Neem - Natural contact insecticide / miticide

This is a unique and environmentally friendly product formulated to provide homeowners with an effective alternative to chemically based insecticides and fungicides. This water based, alcohol free formulation controls a wide range of mites and insect pests and is also effective against powdery mildew disease.

K+ Neem is the natural choice for vegetables, herbs, trees, shrubs, roses, houseplants and turf.

The manufacturing process begins with "cold pressed neem oil", which is extracted from the seeds of the Indian neem tree. These botanical oils are then put through a proprietary saponification process (it is made into a soap). The end result is a unique insecticidal / fungicidal soap derived entirely from a natural source. The fatty acids that comprise K+ Neem differ from the fatty acids found in conventional soaps and are much more effective at killing and repelling insects as well as preventing and fungus growth.

32 OZ Ready-To-Use
16 OZ concentrate
1 Gallon concentrate

This unique fatty acid profile provides K+ Neem with exceptional insecticidal, miticidal and fungicidal properties!

Organica's K+ Neem is a contact insecticide / miticide. Unlike conventional azadirachtin based neem products, which are insect growth regulators, K+ Neem kills insects and mites in all stages of instar development. Moreover because the mode of action is mechanical in nature insects and mites do not build up a resistance to it. K+ Neem is also effective at killing powdery mildew hyphae, colonies and spores. Apply to leaf surface at first appearance of disease and reapply at 7 - 10 day intervals for continued disease control.

CONTROLS

This naturally derived formulation allows the applicator to effectively control insect, mite and powdery mildew populations while simultaneously reducing personal and environmental exposure to synthetic chemicals. K+ Neem is safe enough for use on food crops up until the day of harvest. STOP wondering which "environmentally friendly" insecticide / fungicide to utilize the choice is clearly Organica's K+ Neem.

GENERAL APPLICATION RATES

Production Farming /Ornamentals (roses, crops, trees, shrubs, annuals and perennials)
Thoroughly shake or stir K+ Neem Concentrate thoroughly prior to diluting with water. Since no synthetic surfactants are used in the formulation separation will occur. Make up a 1:50 spray dilution (0.5 % of active ingredient) with 1 part Organica K+ Neem Insecticidal Soap Concentrate to 50 parts soft water or 2.5 ounces of concentrate in 1 gallon of soft water. Thoroughly wet all sides of infested leaves and branches. Make sure spray penetrates through dense foliage to wet all infested surfaces. See label for specific concentrations for specific pests and disease.
Turf (golf courses, sports turf, landscape)
Shake or stir K+ Neem Concentrate thoroughly prior to diluting with water. Make up a 1:50 spray dilution and apply 1 quart of finished spray per 110 sq. ft. / 100 gallons of finished spray per acre. This equates to 2 gallons of concentrate per acre.

APPLICATION GUIDELINES

Organica K+ Neem Concentrate should only be mixed with soft water. If product is mixed with hard water (mineral content exceeds 300 ppm) it may affect the solubility of the concentrate causing separation or a scum to appear. This separating can affect product performance and cause spray equipment to clog. If the mineral content of tank water exceeds 300 ppm treat the tank with 8 - 32 oz of an anionic buffering / softening agent per 100 gallons of water. After water has been softened add the K+ Neem concentrate and thoroughly mix / agitate. Use of conditioned water also reduces the risk of phyto-toxicity. A de-foaming agent may be used to reduce foaming in sprayers with an agitator. Always use freshly mixed solutions to attain optimum results

DO NOT use this product in combination with foliar nutrients, spreader stickers, penetrators, alkaline (cationic) based chelating agents such as EDTA or with pesticides containing sulfur or metallic ions (such as manganese, iron, zinc etc.)
Never apply in full sun or when temperatures exceeds 85 degrees F. Spraying in evening or early morning helps increase effectiveness by lengthening drying time
Check label for list of plants that have shown sensitivity to K+ Neem Insecticidal Soap before applying product

APPLICATION TIMING

Apply product, at the specified dilution, to coincide with first appearance or emergence of insect or mite pests, or when pest damage is first observed. Spray for ADELGIDS, PSYLLIDS and SCALES during periods of peak egg hatch and crawler activity. Contact pests with spray solution and thoroughly wet all surfaces of infested leaves, branches and stems
Retreat after 2 or 3 days for continued contact and kill of APHIDS, MEALY - BUGS and WHITEFLIES. Spray again 14 days later
For persistent infestations of other listed pests (SEE LABEL), spray 2 or 3 times (at weekly intervals) until pest control is achieved
Limit all treatments to a total of 3 applications, unless accumulated soap residues have been removed by rainfall or overhead irrigation.

USE WITH CONFIDENCE ON
Trees, Shrubs, Houseplants, Roses, Perennials, Herbs, Vegetables and Lawns

*Never apply anything to the leaves of plants in direct sunlight. Apply in the evening, early morning or on cloudy, cool days. READ ENTIRE LABEL BEFORE APPLYING PRODUCT
