Brandt Lime Sulfur is a contact fungicide containing 29.0% calcium polysulfide as the active ingredient. It is used to control a wide variety of fungal diseases including apple scab, powdery mildew, peach leaf curl, various blights, and various types of rot (such as brown rot and bitter rot) across multiple crops including apples, cherries, peaches, pears, plums, and more. It also controls certain pests like mites and scale insects. This product is intended for agricultural use on farms, forests, nurseries, or greenhouses and is not for residential use. Application methods include direct spray, concentrate spray, or dilute spray, depending on the target pest and crop. When applying, it is critical to follow specific timing and weather restrictions, such as avoiding application during high temperatures or when frost is expected. Users must wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including chemical-resistant gloves, long-sleeved clothing, and eye protection, due to its caustic nature. Always check specific crop instructions for dilution rates and application timing.
