Qareen Oil 930 AC mineral oil summer for combating scale insects, aphids, and spiders, 5-liter capacity

Green Oil 930 EC Summer Mineral Oil for combating soft scale insects, mealybugs, and spiders, 5-liter pack Green Oil 930 EC Summer Mineral Oil, a concentrate emulsifiable, containing 93% paraffinic mineral oil, used as a non-systemic insecticide and acaricide to help control soft scale insects, mealybugs, spiders, and some mobile stages of insects on fruit trees and ornamental plants when used according to the label instructions and recommended spray rates. Green Oil relies on a physical mechanism that forms a thin oil film covering the insect or eggs, limiting respiration and reducing pest activity when good coverage is achieved. Therefore, it is considered a practical option within integrated pest management programs, especially when a non-systemic product is needed that reduces the likelihood of resistance development compared to neurotoxic pesticides. Summer mineral oil for soft scale insects, mealybugs, and spiders Soft scale insects, mealybugs, and spiders are pests that may cause growth weakness, yellowing of leaves, deformation of new growths, and honeydew excretions that attract sooty mold in some cases. These pests often require precise spray coverage because some parts hide on the underside of leaves, on branches, or under a protective wax layer. Green Oil 930 EC helps combat these pests through suffocation and coverage mechanisms, so the product's efficiency is largely related to spray quality and uniform coverage on leaves, branches, and pest areas. The product does not rely on internal plant translocation, so it must be applied precisely without excessive dilution or insufficient coverage.

How to use Green Oil 930 EC Dilute Green Oil 930 EC in water according to the appropriate application rate for the target crop, with good stirring until a uniform emulsion forms. Spray the plant with full coverage of leaves, branches, and pest sites, avoiding excessive dilution or spraying under unsuitable conditions. Application rates according to product data: Citrus and palms: 1 to 1.5 liters per 100 liters of water. Apple and almond trees: 0.75 to 1 liter per 100 liters of water. Olives: 1 to 1.5 liters per 100 liters of water. Ornamental plants: 1 to 1.5 liters per 100 liters of water. Preferably spray early in the morning or late in the evening, adjusting the spray pressure to achieve a fine, uniform mist covering the entire plant surface. Do not spray during extreme heat or under direct sunlight, as mineral oils may cause stress or burns on sensitive plants if misused. Precautions for using agricultural mineral oils Read the full product label before use. Do not spray if temperature exceeds 35°C. Do not mix with sulfur, and do not use before or after sulfur within 3 weeks. Do not use before or after capitan (capta) within two months. Avoid spraying during severe drought or heat stress. Do not spray during strong winds or under direct sunlight. Use personal protective equipment during preparation and spraying. Do not mix with other pesticides unless compatibility is confirmed. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep away from children, animals, food, and feed. Thoroughly wash spray tools after use. Technical advice to improve spray efficiency The effectiveness of mineral oils depends more on complete coverage than on increasing dosage. Therefore, adjust spray pressure and nozzle to produce a fine, uniform mist that covers the upper and lower surfaces of leaves, branches, and pest areas. Insufficient coverage reduces efficacy, while excessive spraying may waste solution and harm the plant. When to use Green Oil in pest management programs? Preferably use Green Oil when the infestation is in its early stages or when surface pests are accessible with good coverage. It can also be integrated into pest management programs to reduce repeated reliance on neurotoxic pesticides, provided application timings and mixing restrictions are followed, especially with sulfur and capitan. It is not recommended to use it randomly on stressed plants or during high temperatures, as timing quality is as important as product quality for agricultural mineral oils.
