Organic Stylet-Oil
Organic Stylet-Oil contains the same high purity base oil that kills powdery mildew on contact, controls plant feeding mite populations and is safe for field workers and the environment.
With its new advanced emulsification system, Organic Stylet-Oil uses only the safest inert ingredients on EPA's List 4, - but that's not all. Each component of Organic Stylet-Oil's formulation meets or exceeds "Food Grade Quality" standards making it a safe, environmentally friendly white oil formulation. Organic Stylet-Oil is one of the few tools that Homeowners, Professionals and Organic Growers have that can control certain fungal diseases, insects, mites, plus certain potyviruses - with a single application!
Effective on Glassy Winged Sharshooter - vector for Pierce's disease (PD)
Stylet-Oil is effective in treating the glassy winged sharpshooter. The glassy winged sharpshooter is the vector for Pierce's disease (PD) bacterial disease. Stylet Oil works in two modes of action against the sharpshooter: 1) direct contact and 2) effect on feeding behavior (interferes with their recognition of host plant). As a direct treatment for Pierce's disease, Stylet-Oil is not effective since it is not designed to treat bacterial disease.
Effective on Asian Psyllid - vector for Citrus Greening
Stylet-Oil is effective in treating Asian Psyllid as a part of an overall control program. The Asian Psyllid is the vector for the Citrus Greening bacterial disease. Stylet Oil works in two modes of action against the Asian Psyllid: 1) direct contact and 2) effect on feeding behavior (interferes with their recognition of host plant). As a direct treatment for Citrus Greening, Stylet-Oil is not effective since it is not designed to treat bacterial diseases.
Organic & safe alternative to Sulfur for insect and early season powedery mildew control
Organic Stylet-Oil also acts as an environmentally safe alternative to sulfur for both insect and disease control. Sulfur can evaporate into the atmosphere to combine with water resulting in acid rain, but Organic Stylet-Oil stays on your crops, where you need it. Another plus is that, unlike sulfur, Organic Stylet-Oil is not volatile in temperatures below 65 degrees F, making it the perfect early-season powdery mildew control alternative.

Organic Stylet-Oil Technical Specifications PDF
What is the Technical Grade White Mineral Oil
The base oil used to formulate Stylet-Oil, Organic Stylet-Oil and Stylet-Oil for Grass Seed Use is defined in the industry as a Technical Grade White Mineral Oil (or white oil). The decision to provide growers with a technical grade white oil for disease and insect control was made more than two decades ago by Flower Farms, Inc. Providing growers with a highly refined, superior technical grade white oil has a number of advantages over non-white horticultural oils. The purity (or Unsulfonated Residue) of the base oil used in Stylet-Oil is 99.1%; the purity of non-white horticultural oils is typically 92%. This difference in purity can have significant consequences: There is more active ingredient (ai) in white oils than in typical non-white horticultural oils.
White oils do not contain aromatic hydrocarbons, thus, these compounds are not freely evaporating into the atmosphere from spray applications. Typical 92% UR horticultural base oils can contain as much as 8% aromatic hydrocarbons - all of which evaporate into the atmosphere as air pollutants.
Included in these aromatic compounds are suspected Carcinogenic compounds such as benzene, toluene and xylene. After refining, these compounds are not effectively removed from 92% UR oils, but they are removed using the advanced refining processes to manufacture white oil.
Potential for phytotoxicity (plant injury) is minimized when using white oils due to the removal of impurities, including aromatic compounds.
