    Didn't work with cherry fruit fly

    By Yugin on 03/13/2014

    I tried it last year with cherry fruit fly control as per label but in the end all crop went to waste. Maybe upping 1.5X dosage will help but I will be looking for different product this year.

    terrific saving pumpkins

    By Jim on 07/17/2014

    for three years cucumber beetles, powdery mildew & mites destroyed my pumpkins. I've been hesitant to be chemically aggressive. this year my pumpkin leaves began being eaten alive until I began using this product once per week. GREAT results so far although it's only mid-summer. I like that it says harvesting day of spraying is fine.

    Brown Rot on Peaches

    By Donna on 11/13/2014

    I used it three years in a row and it did nothing for my peaches for brown rot. I had beautiful foliage but rotten peaches. I tried taking them off early but that didn't help and finally cut them down this fall.

    Fruit Tree Spray Review

    By Hoshi on 05/17/2020

    Used The Fruit tree spray on my apple and peach tree as per the instructions. Worked well to keep the insects away. Did two applications. Excellent results keeping insects away. Would definitely recommend use of a mask during preparation diluting the concentrate and spraying as it has a distinct pesticide/chemical smell.

Q
In central Ohio, when should I start spraying my apple trees and roses with Bonide Fruit Tree Spray?
A
You did not indicate what you are trying to treat for so we can not give you a definitive answer. We will say that it is usually easier to prevent plant disease and plant damaging insects than it is to get rid of them after they have started damaging your plants so treatments should begin early. We recommend that you contact your local cooperative extension office and speak to the master gardener on staff. The master gardener is very well versed on the local flora and fauna in your region and will be able to tell you the proper time to start treatments on your plants.

Q
When can I spray my pear tree with Bonide Fruit Tree spray? It looks like it has leaf spot. I live in Kansas.
A
Bonide Fruit Tree Spray is not labeled for use on Pear trees. Neem oil would be a good alternative as it is labeled for most fruit trees and for leaf spot. We recommend you contact your local cooperative extension office to determine the best time to apply products for leaf spot on pear trees in your region as timing will vary greatly from one region to another.

Q
Is it normal for Bonide Fruit Tree Spray Concentrate to settle in the bottle?
A

It is normal for some of the ingredients in the Bonide Fruit Tree Spray to settle to the bottom of the bottle. According to the product label:  Shake product thoroughly before use.  Contains micronic particles which settle upon standing and require re-blending by agitation.

 The manufacturer has also informed us that adding a little warm (but not hot) water to the concentrate bottle and shaking/agitating will help to break up any settling at the bottom.

Q
Is it normal that the fruit tree spray made my sprayer explode?

I used the Bonide fruit tree spray in a little 3 quart sprayer and mixed 1tbsp in with water. After spraying my trees I had about 2 inches left in the sprayer after about 10 minutes of it sitting, it made the sprayer explode as it ate through the plastic (like an acid, it also ate through a expandable hose when the concentrate spilt on it) Is this normal?

A
We are unsure what would have caused this explosion to happen. Please contact Bonide to troubleshoot with them on what could have made this happen and if it interacted with a previous sprays residue in the sprayer. Bonide 1-800-536-8231. You can also feel free to contact us at 1-866-581-7378.
