What pests and diseases does Enspray 99 treat?

Certified organic, Grosafe Enspray 99 can be used as both an insecticide or preventative, for controlling mealy bugs, scale, aphids, red mite, thrips, powdery mildew and more.

Enspray 99 is not a poison. It's safe for plants and people, even safe for bees and other beneficial insects. Bad news for the bad bugs though!

How does Enspray 99 work?

As an insecticide, Enspray 99 works in 2 ways to inhibit pests at 3 stages: eggs, nymphs and adults. It works both directly, and through changing bug behaviour.

Through direct contact, it suffocates adult insects and mites. It also protects your plants by reducing feeding and egg laying to reduce reinfestation, help with population control over time, and protect plants from feeding damage.

Enspray 99 also works as a broad spectrum fungicide, active against many fungi, including rust, powdery mildew, greasy spot, sooty mould and Botrytis (grey mould).

How do you use Enspray 99?

For indoor plants as a leaf shine use 5ml Enspray per 1 cup of water (5ml per 200ml), mix and spray on leaves or dip/spray on a cloth and wipe on/off.

For indoor plants for pest control, use 10mls Enspray per 1 litre water and apply with a fine spray mister so all foliage (especially the underside of leaves) and stems are well covered.

TIP: The lid that comes with Enspray 99 Spraying Oil has measurements marked on it.

For use outdoors on apples, pears, deciduous plants and stonefruit: apply at 15 to 20mls Enspray per 1 litre water.

For scale control, apply during the dormant period up until green tip stage.

For citrus, apply at 10ml Enspray per 1 litre water.

For evergreens, roses, and ornamental plants mix at 10ml Enspray per 1 litre water. 

TIP: You can also get Enspray 99 ready-to-use with a super-fine-mist spray bottle included available here, and refill when it runs out using this concentrate, at 6mls Enspray with 300ml water. Both the 200ml and 500ml Enspray are concentrates.

When combining Enspray 99 with Groventive

For use as a spreader: Use Groventive at the normal dose but reduce Enspray 99 to 1/2 a ml per litre for use as a spreader, or apply Enspray 99 separately at full dose.

For use as an insecticide: If combining treatments and using Enspray 99 as both a spreader and an insecticide, use Groventive at the normal dose and Enspray at the reduced dose of 8mls Enspray per 1 litre water.

When combining Enspray 99 with BioNeem

As a spreader: Use BioNeem at the normal dose but reduce Enspray 99 to 1/2 a ml Enspray per 1 litre water for use as a spreader.

As an insecticide: If combining treatments and using Enspray 99 as both a spreader and an insecticide, use BioNeem at the normal dose and Enspray at the reduced dose of 8mls Enspray per 1 litre water.

How often should you apply Enspray 99?

When used as an insecticide by itself, you want to apply it at the frequency to match when the insect you're targeting moves from egg to larvae to adult stages.

Applying and repeating weekly for 2 to 3 weeks, is a common frequency covering most insects lifestages.

You can also use Enspray 99 as a preventative, by applying monthly. Pests do not build up resistance to Enspray,

For broader effectiveness against more fungal and bacterial diseases, mix Enspray 99 with FreeFlo Copper Fungicide (mix in FreeFlo Copper first, Enspray 99 second).

When using Enspray 99 as a spreader, to increase 'stickability' of a treatment, use at the frequency of the treatment you're using, not the frequency of Enspray (ie: follow the frequency of Groventive, BioNeem or the product you are mixing Enspray 99 with).

Why is Enspray-99 different?

Enspray 99 is an extremely pure mineral oil formula with less than 1% impurities. This is different to most mineral oil products.

Mineral oil has been used as an insecticide for generations because of its low toxicity, but most mineral oils are also typically high in impurities, which has a tendency to burn young and tender leaves. The other downside of most mineral oil treatments is their low 'stickability' and coverage. Enspray 99 is different.

Enspray is so pure it covers better and stays on longer without the risk of burning tender foliage. It stays put on plant surfaces for longer, killing more pests and protecting plants for longer. It's also more rainfast than other treatments, making it suitable for both outdoor and indoor application. 

It's not only safe for plants, it's also safer for people. Enspray 99 is certified organic for peace of mind for use right up to harvesting for crops, herbs and veges, plus it's safe for bees and beneficial insects. Safe for use on fruits, vegetables, houseplants, roses and more. 

Enspray 99 expert review

"The magic of this oil is two-fold – it works both as a slippery lubricant that prevents pests and disease from taking hold of your plant AND it acts to smother any pests you already have. It’s nifty stuff, let me tell you! And the very best part – it’s totally organic!"

Excerpt from review by Claire Mummery, organic gardening and sustainable living coach from Grow Inspired

"If you're looking for alternatives to chemical sprays to control sucking insects, Bill Brett, in his book Garden Pest & Disease Control, advises that a mineral oil product like Enspray 99 is organic, and suitable for use on annuals (including vegetables), perennials, bulbs, tubers, roses and shrubs."
