What is Neem Oil?

Neem oil is a natural pesticide produced from the seeds of the neem tree. It has been used for hundreds of years to control pests and diseases. Components of neem oil are used in many products including neem toothpaste, soaps, and pet shampoos. Neem oil is a mixture of components. Azadirachtin is the most active component for repelling and killing pests. The portion left over is called clarified hydrophobic neem oil.  Source: http://npic.orst.edu/factsheets/neemgen.html

Neem oil's health benefits include its ability to protect the immune system, detoxify the body, oral health, repel insects, increase appetite, soothe inflammation. Neem seed oil can protect against fungal infections on the skin and nails, eliminate inflammation and improve the appearance of blemishes, reduce the severity of sunburn, reduce the occurrence of acne through its antibacterial action, and promote the growth of healthy new cells.  For thousands of years Indians used a twig from the Neem Tree to prevent decay and gum infection.

What are the uses of neem oil in gardening?

Neem can treat pest infestations such as Aphids and mealybugs, and fungal problems, but it will also kill bees and any other insect it comes into direct contact with while wet. To avoid harming wildlife, use neem oil in the morning when insects are less active, and allow it to dry after application.   Australian brands The Plant Runner Neem Leaf Shine and We The Wild Neem Protect Spray both offer neem oil sprays for plants. 

Despite being natural, neem oil is toxic. Never ingest it, and wash it out of your eyes, nose, and from your skin and keep away from pets when wet. As it has a terrible scent, it is unlikely a cat or dog will ingest the neem oil, but when you are using to treat plants, keep animals away for an hour until the spray dries.
