Solabiol's concentrated black soap, based on olive oil, cleans many surfaces such as tiles, paving, slate, stone, wood, and leaves soiled by aphids and scale insects... This product is multi-purpose; it can be used in the home and garden, including to combat certain insects and diseases. It is formulated without dyes or preservatives, so it is suitable for use in Organic Agriculture. Packaged in a large 4-litre container for heavy-duty cleaning needs, it will prepare 25 L of cleaning solution.
This concentrated formula contains 10% black soap, of 100% plant origin. Black soap is made from potash and olive oil; it is a natural and biodegradable product. It has been known for its cleaning and degreasing properties for years, both in the home and on outdoor terraces and paving. Black soap also has antibacterial and insecticidal value. In the garden, it can be applied to leaves to eliminate certain unwanted insects: aphids, scale insects, mites, red spiders, whiteflies, psyllids, and other thrips. It acts by contact, killing the larvae. It also cleans honeydew, a sticky, sugary excretion that promotes the development of sooty mould, that black mould covering leaves.
Usage advice:
- To clean tiled or paved surfaces: apply the product with a sponge or by spraying onto the areas to be cleaned.
- As an insecticide, use black soap in the morning, when dew is present on the vegetation, or start by lightly showering the plants, before spraying the black soap 1/2 hour later. Avoid treatment during the sunniest hours and periods of intense heat.
It can be beneficial to clean branches and bark during a plant's dormant period, from leaf fall onwards, before the spring bud burst period. This helps eliminate certain insect larvae or spores of pathogenic fungi that overwinter on the bark, waiting for spring's return. Applying 2 to 3 preventive treatments helps limit and delay the appearance of certain pests and diseases. If you use black soap on fruit trees, shrubs or vegetable crops, wait 5 days before harvesting. If you have treated a vine, the pre-harvest interval extends to 21 days.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
