Kaolin Clay 1kg

Kaolin Clay is a naturally occurring mineral that forms a protective film on foliage to deter common insect pests, help suppress fungal spores, and shield plants from sunburn and heat stress for improved crop finish and yield.

What it does

- Creates a physical barrier that confuses and irritates pests to discourage feeding and egg-laying
- Helps prevent fungal spores from establishing on leaf surfaces
- Reduces sunburn and heat stress by reflecting excess light and cooling the canopy
- Supports better fruit size, colour and overall appearance

Where to use

- Fruit trees: apples, pears, citrus, walnuts
- Vines: wine grapes
- Vegetables: cucumbers, tomatoes
- Suitable for many other edible and ornamental crops

How to use

- Apply before the emergence of adult insects for best results
- Mix with water to a smooth slurry and spray to thorough, even coverage until a fine white film forms on all leaf and fruit surfaces (including undersides)
- Reapply to fresh growth and after heavy rain or vigorous irrigation to maintain a continuous barrier
- Avoid spraying during the heat of the day or when rain is imminent

Why choose this product

- 100% natural mineral — ideal for integrated pest and disease management
- Non-systemic, residue washes off fruit after harvest
- Helps reduce plant stress in hot conditions and supports consistent yields
