Made from modified kaolin clay, Surround WP Crop Protectant is sprayed on as a liquid which evaporates leaving a protective powdery film on the surfaces of leaves, stems and fruit. Controls a long list of insect pests on vegetables, fruit trees, ornamentals and more. OMRI Listed for use in organic production.

Available size: 25 lb Bag

Works in three specific ways:

1. Tiny particles of the kaolin clay powder attach to insects when they contact it, agitating and repelling them.
2. Even if the particles do NOT attach to their bodies, the insects find the coated plant/ fruit unsuitable for feeding and egg-laying.
3. The protective white film cools plants by up to 15°F, which can help to reduce heat and water stress. Many fruits show improved color, smoothness and size with less russet, dropping, sunburn and cracking.
