Put on rubber gloves. Use your fingertips as applicators.

Actually rubber gloves under a pair of cotton works very well and at

it's hard to believe gardeners can be so lazy and poison soil, it

"Nature, left alone, is in perfect balance.
Harmful insects and plant diseases are always present,
but do not occur in nature to an extent which requires the use of poisonous chemicals.
The sensible approach to disease and insect control is to grow sturdy crops in a healthy environment."
