ecosulfur 800 WG Organic Fungicide & Miticide
ecosulfur™ is an 800g/kg elemental sulfur. It is a cost-effective Registered Organic solution for powdery mildew and mites on a range of horticultural crops. It is a free-flowing, almost dustless WG formulation with very small particle size (median 3 micron) for superior coverage. Ecosulfur instantaneously disperses in water and has excellent suspensibility properties which adds to its superior performance.
- Excellent dispersion and suspensibility properties
- Small uniform particle size for better coverage
- Uniform free-flowing water dispersible granules with minimal dust
- Compatible with most organic and copper compound fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, miticides, emulsifiable concentrates, and spray oils
- Registered Organic
Active Constituent: 800g/kg Sulfur (S) present as elemental sulfur
ecosulfur™ kills disease-spreading spores by disrupting respiration within their cells. It does this either on contact through residual action or, at higher temperatures, by volatilisation. Sulfur remains the most common cost-effective method for controlling Powdery mildew in dense crop canopies like vines due to its ability to volatilise. Sulfur also has no known resistance issues so remains an important fungicide in the fight against mildew outbreaks that may require multiple sprays.

ecosulfur is compatible with the most commonly used fungicides and insecticides, however a preliminary test with small quantities is recommended prior to use. Do not mix with dinitrophenol derivatives such as DNOC or any oil containing products.
Do not use ecosulfur during hot weather conditions or where IPM programs are being relied upon to control mites and other pests. Ecocarb or Ecocarb PLUS should be your preferred product to control Powdery mildew and other diseases under IPM situations.
