Review: Effective for Scale - Ficus benjamina - This is a refined mineral oil that is easy to mix and apply. I like using Southern Ag products. Has been effective for treating scale whereas the Southern Ag Neem not so much. It also does a good job of cleaning sticky, dirty foliage.
Review: Pleased - A good item at a great price. My peach trees love it and it hasn't damaged my tree in any way. Just make sure to pay attention at the little size. I knew what I was order and I knew what to expect but the bottle looks a lot larger in the photo vs in person. The instruction book on the back gives a very detailed list of mixing ratio for many different plants and trees.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is it safe to apply for scale problems on holy basil potted plant growing with organic methods?**
A: This oil is a petroleum product, it is 98% mineral oil. I would not use it on my organic garden.

**Q: Can this be used to protect a brass plate**
A: No it’s an agricultural spray. Will wash off. Why don’t you try aluwax.  It’s a thin wax in a spray can to protect aluminum , like hurricane shutters.  It should work for brass.
Home Depot sells it

**Q: Difference between parafine and neem oil**
A: Hello! Both our Southern Ag Parafine and Neem Oil work essentially the same way. However, the Neem Oil comes from a tree grown in India and is generally considered to work better.

**Q: I have recurring problems with white dust like stuff on my sago palms. Will this help?**
A: more than likely you have sago palm scales. You would use this in addition to safari 20sg insecticide which i have listed on amazon marketplace too. safari is a systemic insecticide that will control the palm scales for a longer period. parafine is going to help with smothering the adults and eggs. but not control residually like safari.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Followed instructions, worked well
*by R***K on April 2, 2025*

I used this on my king sagol palms that had scale insects that appeared to be a white coating on stems and fronds, also had mealy bugs on fronds. Killed them all. Used it a second time 2 weeks later to be sure and its been 2 months since and palms are beginning to grow healthy and thrive now.
