Default Safer's 3-in-1 instead of Safer's "Defender"

Hi

I was wondering if anyone knows if Safer's "3-in-1 Miticide/Fuguside/insecticide" can be used in the same way as Safer's "defender" (which is just a funguside I believe)

anyways, I already have the 3-in 1 safers and would like to know if it could be used to treat my fungus problem as well

Thanks

I can't answer your question, but I do use Schultz Garden Safe Fungicide 3 which is a 3 in one fungicide/insecticide/miticide. It works really well. And it doesn't leave the white deposits behind.

Thanks good to know

...I put a dab at the end of a leaf, just to see if the spray has an effect on the leaf, but I am pretty sure it is alright. If it does not cause leaf damage, and is safe for the plant, I may use it on my quarantined den. nobile for the mealy bugs that my soap spray can't seem to kill

I'm not sure I would soak the plant in it. If you spray the plant, the chemical will get in the potting media. Try it for 2-3 weeks, if your pests are not gone, maybe a repot is in order.
