Take a look at following web link from Cornell University: http://plantclinic.cornell.edu/factsheets/hollyhockust.pdf I would trust this site. -- Martin

Hi, According to WEIMAN This item WILL NOT remove rust. If used regularly it will prevent rust from forming.

I've been gardening for 40 years and we all wish there was a systemic for edible plants. Unfortunately, there isn't. Fight your bugs with Neem Oil. That's what I use and it works pretty well. It also works on fungi. You can try insecticidal soap. Go to the website for MotherEarth.com and ask them for help. Nobody knows more about organic stuff for edibles than they do.

I use Lime- Away for that - it takes a few applications - (I just spray on and don't rinse) - but Whink also has another rust remover that works on other surfaces

The Neem should take care of those. Be sure to spray both the tops and undersides of the leaves.

I used this product on prostrate yews, a ground-hugging shrub. When I applied the Bonide, I drenched the ground starting at the trunk and going two feet out. Since this is a systemic pesticide, the idea is to have the vascular system wick the pesticide up into the plant, where it will protect the plant from the inside out, so to speak. Hope this is helpful.

That's a tough one. Most any oil will help in the slowing of rust however in this application you have the possibility of tire deterioration and vehicle paint to be concerned with. Have you tried contacting the manufacturer, Security Chain Company?

You can spray it straight or mix in a a table spoon of Epsom salt with a couple drops of dishwashing liquid to make it stronger and easier to spray. It will kill any green plant you spray it on, but it may take more than one spray. This includes saplings. So far it has not discolored bark mulch.

It is not labeled for that, but many folks have tried to use a couple of drops per gallon of water and soap with great success, but no guarantee here. Neem Pro works on a whole lot of insects that are not listed on label for your trees and shrubs,flowers, vegetables or your yard. I use Neem Pro for every insect on my one acre landscape indoor or outdoor and my veggie garden up to day of harvest

Wow, sorry to hear that. Normally they only consume partially broken-down organic material. I don't think Neem is strong enough to penetrate the "shell", but it wouldn't hurt to try. Perhaps if you combine the Neem solution with a small amount of detergent. Not too much, though, or you'll burn your plants too.

The active ingredient in AzaMax is Azadirachtin, which is extracted from neem oil. Neem oil has virtually no toxicity towards humans and other mammals. Therefore it should be safe to use up to day of harvest. You may want to wash the fruit or vegetables that are sprayed but this should be even if they aren't sprayed. Also spray after sunset, this will save the bees from any harm. Dannie

yes , dyna grow neem oil is omri certified.. you can google that.. as far as i am concerned it is the only insecticide and fungicide that is needed in your garden.. i spray my tomatoes with it every 2-3 weeks with it and after every heavy rain.. if you also use "tanglefoot greenhouse sticky traps" along with neem oil , your garden will be 100% protected.. follow the directions and use warm water when mixing.. one small downside is that it has to be used within 2 days of mixing or it will separate and clog up your sprayer..

Hi, Sorry to hear that, Yes, my experience was horrible with that product too. I tried getting rid of it just on one area (stairs) and I simply used a very hard-bristle metal brush. I don't really know if there are solvents or something better, I would ask @ home depot. Sorry.Hope you asked for a refund, I sent Rust-Oleum a dissatisfaction email and they refunded the product price. Not a complete consolation since the time & effort is more expensive, but it's something.

My husband used it and this is his response. "One bottle goes a long way since it is diluted directly 1:8 in a pump sprayer. It took 2 sprays to kill unwanted growth from a Live Oak, probably due to the amount of rain we get almost everyday. You could probably use a garden hose with a sprayer attachment but I don't feel you have as much control. We were able to direct the spray on the unwanted growth and save my other plants nearby."

Have used it on dogwood trees. Do not have crepe myrtles but should be fine. Great product. Just follow recommended application.

Yes, it will. But be very careful. It's almost the same as Lime Away. Only Lime away won't take off rust.

My tools are fine and it is humid here in Oklahoma. I never had to rub oil on the metal part of my tools, but perhaps you should try this on your new tools. I would like to know what caused them to rust. I hope you figure it out!
