Wallys Sulphur Powder for fumigating glasshouses when empty of plants in Winter (or anytime but can also harm plants with the toxic fumes)

Sulphur is a natural fungicide which can be dusted over

plants for control of various fungi problems.

 Mites cannot handle sulphur either can be dusted over area or plants with mites (Note we also have a sprable sulphur that will mix with water to spray.)

Dusted over bulbs prior to storage to help protect from rots.

Burning sulphur in glasshouses is an old method of

Fumigating the house against wintering over pests.

This should not be done while any plants are growing

in the glasshouse as it will also damage them.

If plants are finished for the season leave them in so the insect pests on them will be killed and not taken outside.

Close all vents and leave door open.

Place a quantity of Sulphur powder on a steel hearth shovel

Or steel blade of a spade and ignite.It is difficult to start burning without a very strong flame.... so dampen a little of the pile with meths or use fire starter.

Once sulphur starts burning it will continue to do so.

Avoid inhaling the smoke; place inside the glasshouse.

          Leave Immediately.

Close door behind you and do not re-enter for 24 hours.

 One to two tablespoons for small Glasshouse (6x4)

Increase the amount for larger houses and tunnel houses.

Caution: Sulphur once burning is difficult to put out and

Smoke makes breathing very difficult. Ignite safely outside

In open air then once burning place inside and immediately leave

Closing the Door behind you.
