Pure Neem Oil

A safe and effective organic leaf polisher. Neem oil is pressed from the seeds of the Indian Neem tree. Neem oil has been used for centuries in India to control insects such as spider mite, whitefly and thrip. It has also been used to reduce aphid and mealy bug population. It acts as a growth regulator on the maturing insects; that is, it prevents them from developing. As an oil, it smothers eggs and adults and it's a repellent and anti-feedant. Neem oil also acts as a fungicide for mildew and other fungal diseases. We've used many neem products over the years which were extracts of neem oil. We like Neem oil because it doesn't damage the leaves unlike other horticultural oils. For the gardener looking for a safe and effective way to polish leaves or interested in trying an ancient remedy, this is one of the best. 8 oz. bottle.
