Bonide Captain Jack's Neem MAX - 8oz Concentrate - 4-in-1 Neem Oil with Azadirachtin

Bonide Captain Jack's Neem MAX is a 4-in-1 pest and disease control solution combining cold-pressed Neem Oil with Azadirachtin - the primary bioactive compound in neem that controls a broader range of insects than hydrophobic neem oil alone. This formulation functions simultaneously as a fungicide, insecticide, nematicide, and miticide, providing comprehensive coverage against insects, mites, nematodes, fungal disease, and bacterial issues in a single product. Suitable for use on vegetables, fruits, nuts, herbs, spices, roses, flowers, shrubs, houseplants, and turfgrass - indoors and outdoors. Mix with water per label directions to create a foliar spray or drench solution.

Key Features & Benefits

• 4-in-1 Control: A single product that functions as a fungicide, insecticide, nematicide, and miticide - reduces the number of separate products needed for comprehensive pest and disease management.
• Cold-Pressed Neem with Azadirachtin: Cold-pressing preserves Azadirachtin content - the key IGR compound in neem that disrupts insect development. Products containing Azadirachtin control a broader spectrum of insects than hydrophobic neem oil alone.
• 70% Neem + Surfactants: High neem concentration with built-in surfactants for easy mixing and consistent emulsification in water.
• Broad Crop Compatibility: Labeled for vegetables, fruit, nuts, herbs, spices, roses, flowers, shrubs, houseplants, and turfgrass - one product covers the whole garden.
• Indoor and Outdoor Use: Can be used on indoor houseplants as well as outdoor crops and ornamentals.
• Organic Gardening: Formulated for use in organic gardening programs. Apply as a spray or drench to address insects, mites, nematodes, and fungal problems.

Who Should Use This

Neem MAX is suited for home gardeners, hobbyists, and small-scale growers looking for a versatile, multipurpose pest and disease control product that handles a wide range of issues with a single application. Particularly useful for growers managing multiple pest and disease pressures simultaneously - where applying one product that addresses insects, mites, and disease is more practical than separate spray programs for each problem.

Compatibility

Neem MAX can be applied as a foliar spray or soil drench. This 8oz concentrate should be mixed with water per label directions before application. Effective against a wide range of insects, mites, nematodes, and fungal pathogens. Always read and follow the product label before use. Apply in the evening or during low-light conditions to minimize potential for leaf scorch and to avoid contact with pollinators.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Neem MAX different from regular neem oil?

Neem MAX is cold-pressed neem oil that retains its Azadirachtin content - the key insect growth regulator in neem. Hydrophobic neem oil products have Azadirachtin removed during processing. Products with Azadirachtin provide broader insect control than refined hydrophobic neem oil.

Can Neem MAX be used on edible crops?

Yes. Neem MAX is labeled for vegetables, fruits, nuts, and herbs. Always follow label instructions for application timing, rate, and pre-harvest intervals when applying to edible crops.

When is the best time to apply Neem MAX?

Apply during the evening or in low-light conditions to minimize leaf scorch risk and to reduce exposure to pollinators. Avoid applying during the heat of the day or in direct bright sunlight.

Is this product a concentrate that needs diluting?

Yes. This is a 8oz concentrate. Mix with water per the product label directions before applying as a foliar spray or drench.
