Eco-oil is white oil, "Hippo Enhanced". The manufacturers claim:
Eco-oil is a registered organic miticide
and insecticide (registered with BFA). It controls a range of problem insects including
scale, aphids, two-spotted mite, whitefly and citrus leafminer. Safe for
use on vegies, as well as ornamentals, with no withholding period.
Spray and eat on the same day! Also safe for beneficial insects like
bees, ladybeetles and earthworms.
eco-oil is now HIPPO Enhanced!
HIPPO Enhanced eco-oil is a revolutionary approach to pest control and
is the results of a 3 year research project with Charles Sturt
University.
The project investigated the natural defense
mechanisms of plants, in particular the way plants produce volatile
organic compounds when being attacked by pests. These compounds act as
SOS messages to beneficial insects letting them know that tasty snacks
are on nearby plants! A whole range of beneficial insects are attracted
including ladybeetles, lacewings, hoverflies and parasitoids.
The
HIPPO Enhanced eco-oil formulation replicates this defence mechanism by
including these organic compounds into spray. The research clearly
showed that the HIPPO Enhanced eco-oil will attract beneficial insects
into the garden. Pretty amazing hey?
So use HIPPO Enhanced
eco-oil to kill those troublesome pests and at the same it will attract
beneficial insects to help get your garden ecosystem into better
balance.
