Mauget ArborFos Injectable Fungicide

ArborFos is a systemic fungicide that works by stimulating the tree's own natural immune system. Rather than acting as a direct nutrient, it triggers the plant to defend itself against fungal pathogens like Phytophthora and root rot, leading to stronger foliage and root health.

No, this product is not considered safe for pets or children. Because it is a concentrated chemical fungicide, you must keep children and pets away from the treatment area during application and ensure the capsules are properly installed and secured according to the label.

To apply ArborFos, you will need an 11/64" high helix drill bit to create the necessary injection sites in the tree trunk. The product is designed for direct injection, so you will be inserting the capsules directly into these drilled holes.

ArborFos is registered for use on a wide range of ornamental, forest, and crop trees, including those affected by Sudden Oak Death. However, you should always consult the product label to confirm it is approved for the specific species you are treating before application.

The 5ml and 7.5ml capsule sizes allow you to tailor the dosage to the specific size and health needs of the tree. Using the correct volume ensures effective systemic coverage without over-treating the tree.

Yes, the injectable method is considered environmentally friendly because it delivers the fungicide directly into the tree's vascular system. This minimizes chemical drift, reduces soil contamination, and lowers the risk of exposure to non-target plants and wildlife compared to spraying.
