Protect Your Fruit Trees with Vitax Fruit Tree Grease 200g
Vitax Fruit Tree Grease 200g provides an effective solution for protecting fruit trees from pests, specifically targeting the Winter Moth, Mottled Umber Moth, and March Moth. These pests often invade fruit trees during late autumn to early spring, and the tree trunk is a primary entry point for such infestations. Fruit Tree Grease helps prevent pests from climbing the trunk, providing an easy-to-apply barrier that can also serve as a monitoring trap.

How Vitax Fruit Tree Grease Works
Made from rapeseed oil, Fruit Tree Grease works by creating a sticky barrier around the trunk of the tree. This barrier prevents pests like the Winter Moth and March Moth from reaching the tree's canopy, where they lay eggs that can cause significant damage. By trapping the female, wingless adults, the grease provides a clear indication of pest activity and infestation levels, making it a valuable monitoring tool for gardeners.

Easy Application and Replenishing
Using Fruit Tree Grease is simple and straightforward. Apply the grease to a position on the trunk at least 45cm above the ground but below the lowest branch, ensuring the grease forms a complete ring around the trunk. For best results, use a stiff brush or spatula to spread the grease evenly, working it into any cracks or crevices. In case of heavy rain or if the grease loses its stickiness, replenish it to maintain the barrier.

Ideal for Organic Gardens
Vitax Fruit Tree Grease is suitable for use in organic gardens, as it contains no harmful chemicals. Its natural formulation makes it an ideal choice for environmentally-conscious gardeners who wish to protect their fruit trees without resorting to chemical pesticides. Whether you have a small backyard orchard or a larger fruit-growing operation, this product offers a safe and effective way to keep pests at bay.

When and How Often to Use Fruit Tree Grease
The best time to apply Vitax Fruit Tree Grease is in the autumn (September/October), and it should be renewed in February. To ensure that the tree is fully protected, the grease should cover the entire circumference of the trunk. In case of an infestation, be sure to apply the grease to neighbouring trees as well to prevent the spread of pests. Rotate the application position each year for best results.
