  • Can I use neem oil on my lawn?

    Created by Sue Davis on

    Hello
    According to testing by my vet, the fungus in the soil of my grass has been giving my young female dog fungal rash on and around her vulva and has driven a fungal UTI three times in 6 months. Can I spray a neem oil mixture on the lawn to help with this? Thank you.

    Hi Sue –

    Neem oil is an effective fungicide for the prevention and control of various fungal diseases. For home lawn use, dilute 2 oz. (4 tablespoons) in 1 gallon of water. Apply at the rate of 5 gallons spray solution per 2000 square feet. Thoroughly mix solution and spray all plant surfaces until completely wet. Apply 2-3 times on a 7-14 day interval to insure effective control.

    Good luck!
