Monterey Horticultural Oil
- OMRI-listed horticultural oil for year-round use on ornamentals, fruits, vegetables, and trees.
- Controls aphids, mites, scales, whiteflies, mealybugs, leafminers, thrips, and other soft-bodied insects.
- Functions as an insecticide, miticide, and fungicide by suffocating pests and disrupting fungal attachment.
- Safe for use during dormant and growing seasons, with minimal risk of plant burn.
Monterey Horticultural Oil is a versatile, OMRI-listed pest control solution designed for all-season use on ornamentals, fruit trees, vegetables, roses, and landscape plants. Formulated with refined mineral oil and an advanced surfactant blend, it provides superior coverage and effective control of aphids, mites, scales, whiteflies, mealybugs, thrips, and other soft-bodied insects. This oil-based formula works by suffocating pests at all life stages—including eggs, larvae, and adults—and helps reduce fungal issues by interrupting spore attachment. Suitable for organic gardening, it offers dependable plant protection without harsh chemical residues.
Key Benefits
3‑in‑1 action as an insecticide, miticide, and fungicide; OMRI-listed; effective in both dormant and growing seasons; ideal for organic garden management.
What It Controls
Effective against aphids, whiteflies, mites, mealybugs, scales, leafminers, leafhoppers, thrips, and additional soft-bodied insects; also disrupts fungal pathogen attachment.
How It Works
Controls pests through suffocation rather than poisoning; must fully contact target insects; kills eggs, larvae, nymphs, and adults on contact.
Where to Use
Safe for ornamentals, roses, vegetables, herbs, citrus, small fruits, vine crops, tree fruits, nuts, indoor greenhouses, and outdoor garden beds.
Application Instructions
Mix thoroughly with water before spraying. Apply enough solution to fully coat upper and lower leaf surfaces without runoff. Use during calm weather and avoid extreme heat.
Seasonal Use
Can be applied year‑round. Effective as a dormant spray for overwintering pests and as a growing‑season treatment for active infestations.
Active Ingredient
Contains 80% highly refined mineral oil with specialized surfactants for improved spread, coverage, and mixing stability.
Safety & Organic Use
OMRI-listed for organic gardening. Once dry, treated areas are safe for pets and people. Leaves no toxic residue on edible crops.
Storage & Handling
Store in a cool, dry location. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid spraying during high-temperature stress or when plants are drought-stressed.
