they're quite interesting and a lot less evasive and toxic. They'er more for prevention of fungus and what have you.
Treatment of tree wounds.
In a one quart spray bottle, mix one shot glass of antiseptic mouthwash, a few drops of liquid dish soap, and fill the remainder with water. Apply directly to wounds.
Clean up tonic.
1 cup antiseptic mouth wash
1 cup liquid dish soap
1 cup *chewing tobacco juice
* to make juice put one package of chewing tobacco in a nylon stocking to hold it together. Then steep "bag" in one gallon of boiling water like a tea bag.
use-remove all old mulch from around tree. spray entire plant top to bottom to the point of run off. apply every two weeks before seven p.m.
I have found thaat the tobacco spray helps with most aqll pests. It can be mixed stronger weeker ect. If somthing like this can help maybe the cavity filler can as well.
