Superior Dormant Spray Kit – Lime Sulphur 1L & Dormant Oil 500ml | Fruit Trees & Roses

Every spring, the window is short. Before the leaf buds break, before overwintering insects hatch, before fungal spores take hold — there’s a critical moment to act. Our Dormant Spray Kit gives you everything you need to protect your fruit trees, roses, and ornamentals before the season even begins.

Superior Dormant Spray Kit – Lime Sulphur & Dormant Oil | Complete Early-Season Protection

This professional-grade kit combines two proven products into one complete dormant spray solution: Superior Liquid Lime Sulphur Insecticide (1 L) and Liquid Dormant Oil Spray (500 ml). Together, they deliver comprehensive protection against overwintering insects, scale, and fungal disease — before they have a chance to damage your plants.

What’s Included

• Liquid Lime Sulphur Insecticide – 1 L: Destroys fungus spores and smothers overwintering insect eggs
• Liquid Dormant Oil Spray – 500 ml: Enhances lime sulphur adhesion for complete, even coverage on branches and stems

Key Benefits

• Smothers Overwintering Insect Eggs: Kills eggs before they hatch, stopping pest populations before they start
• Destroys Fungal Spores: Controls disease-causing fungi that overwinter on bark and stems
• Controls Scale Insects: Effective against oyster shell scale, rose scale, and black scale
• Improved Adhesion: The oil formula ensures lime sulphur sticks to branches and stems for total coverage
• Season-Long Prevention: Early application prevents pest and disease problems throughout the entire growing season

Ideal For

• Apple, pear, cherry, peach, and other fruit trees
• Roses and rose bushes prone to scale and fungal disease
• Ornamental shrubs and trees with overwintering pest or disease history
• Orchards and home gardens requiring preventative early-season treatment
• Growers following integrated pest management (IPM) programs

When to Apply

Apply in early spring when frost danger has passed, before leaf buds show green at the tips. This critical timing window ensures maximum effectiveness — too early and the product may not adhere properly; too late and insects will have already hatched. Highly recommended by growers for preventative orchard and garden care.

How to Use

1. Mix Lime Sulphur and Dormant Oil according to label directions
2. Apply using a garden sprayer, thoroughly coating all branches, stems, and bark
3. Ensure complete coverage, including crevices where insects and spores overwinter
4. Apply on a calm, frost-free day before buds break
5. Do not apply when temperatures are below 4°C or above 25°C
