Black Gold contains emulsified mineral oil
• Emulsified Mineral Oil forms a thin oil layer which starve and kill insects and pest on contact by disrupting gas exchange (respiration), cell membrane function or structure.
• They also kill them by disrupting their feeding on oil covered surfaces. Their toxic action is more physical than chemical and is short-lived.
• Mineral oil when sprayed on plant surface forms a layer which prevents the fungal mycelia from penetrating into the leaf. When used against plant pathogens, Mineral oil smothers fungal growth and reduce spore germination on treated surfaces. They are mostly fungistatic.
• Black Gold containing emulsified mineral oil reduces the ability of vectors like aphids, mites etc., to acquire the virus from an infected plant and transmit it to healthy plants. Black Gold interferes with the virus’s ability to remain in the vector mouthparts.
