What is your source for this? I can find no references on the web.
http://www.armillatox.co.uk makes no mention of this. I find the above
strange as it has only just been given clearance for control of the detested
vine weevil.

If the above should come to pass then Jeyes Fluid is a similar
beastie and in very dilute form is an absolute ace at controlling rose
mildew and black spot. So that's Roseclear covered as well.


You can find more details on the Pesticides Safety Directorate website,
at

or http://tinyurl.com/7bf5. You will find though that both Jeyes
Fluid and Roseclear are also on the list!
