Neem is best used for those pests that consume the plant- leaf eaters and sap-suckers are the ones that take up the neem and then find their appetite suppressed, and then the transformation into the next stage in development is blocked. For root or tuber eaters, a soil drench is recommended. So when you use a neem spray, damage to the plant is reduced rapidly, and then after about 2 weeks there is rapid population collapse. This mechanism of action is also one of the reasons that beneficial insects- nectar-drinkers like butterflies and bees- are unaffected by neem.
Neem is also biodegradable- this does mean you need to spray weekly and after rain- however, it also means that it does not build up in the environment.
To be on the safe side for bees and butterflies, spray early evening. Wash sprayer with warm soapy water after use.
Use 5ml (1 teaspoon) of oil in half to one litre of warm water and 0.5 - 1.0 ml of the emulsifier.
