  • Asked by Leanne from Canton, Mo
    06/20/2013
    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.
