Vitax Winter Tree Wash (500ml) Code: XSL009

£16.95 inc. p&p 16.9500 In Stock New

Ideal for organic gardeners, Vitax Winter Tree Wash is a blend of natural plant and fish oils for control of overwintering insect pests on fruit trees and bushes during the dormant season (November through to February). It will control hibernating pests and their eggs thereby preventing infestation when the growing season begins.

Winter Tree Wash works by purely physical means and is suitable for edible crops and ornamental plants.

Winter Tree Wash controls the eggs, larvae and nymphs of aphid (including greenfly, blackfly and whitefly) and other over-wintering insect pests on most fruit trees and bushes including apple, pear, plum, cherry, gooseberry, blackberry, raspberry, blackcurrant and redcurrant. Also suitable for vines under glass.

Winter Tree wash is the only product recommended by the RHS for treating pests on deciduous fruit trees and bushes in the winter.


Price includes p&p.
