HOW TO CONTROL RUST

Prune infected shoots off plants. Remove and destroy infected plant parts.

For control, use SUPER SPECTRUM or THIRAM FUNGUS CONTROL from the standard Kiwicare disease control range.

For a natural alternative, rust can be effectively controlled by ORGANIC COPPER OXY or ORGANIC SUPER SULPHUR.  

Once infestation is under control, use SPECTRUM as a prevention treatment.
