Benefits of Neem Oil:
Neem oil is a very versatile oil, both when used on its own as as an ingredient in cosmetics, soaps, creams and lotions. This oil is rich in fatty acids including oleic acids, palmitic acids and linoleic acids all of which benefit the skin. It is nourishing and moisturising. However, care should be taken to dilute it with another mild carrier such as coconut oil as it is strongly astingent if used topically. It is valued for hair care as well as in the garden where it can support the health of your plants.

Neem oil for gardeners
Neem is a great natural insecticide and kills mould, mildrew and other fungal infections in the garden. It should not be used neat. Add a few drops of washing-up liquid to a gallon of water to allow the neem to dissolve, then mix in two teaspoons of neem oil. This mixture can be sprayed on plants both to treat active attacks and protect against new ones. Insects neem oil is effective against include whiteflies, aphids, mealy bugs, japanese beetles, thrips, fungus gnat and leafhoppers. It can also protect against nematodes and spider mites. Use neem to treat plant fungal diseases including leaf spot, black spot, powdery mildew, scab and anthracnose.
Wait as long as possible, preferably 5 days from spraying, before harvesting and eating fruit and vegetables sprayed with neem oil preparations. Take care to wash the produce with warm soapy water to ensure all traces of the oil are removed before preparing and eating it.
