Frequently asked questions

• What exactly is Trabe Bioleat and what is it for?

  Bioleat is a concentrated mild soap made from potassium salts of vegetable fats. It's used as an agricultural cleaner and also as a wetting and moistening agent in foliar treatments. Its degreasing action is designed to remove the honeydew that insects leave on the leaf.

• Does Bioleat kill insects or mites?

  No, it has no insecticidal or acaricidal action. The manufacturer itself classifies it as an agricultural cleaner, wetting agent, and moisturizer, and expressly states that it contains no biocides. Its job is to clean the leaf and improve the wetting of whatever you apply.

• What dose should I use and how is it applied?

  For agricultural use, apply 6 ml per liter of water; as a wetting agent or degreaser, 10 ml per liter. The maximum recommended dose is 15 ml per liter. It's applied as a foliar spray, thoroughly wetting the whole leaf surface.

• What does using it as a wetting agent alongside other treatments provide?

  As a wetting and moistening agent, it helps the spray solution spread and adhere better to the leaf surface. The recommended dose for this use is 10 ml per liter of water. This way, you get more out of every application, with thorough wetting of the leaf.

• What is its composition? Is it of natural origin?

  It contains 25 to 35% mild, water-soluble soap based on vegetable fats and potash. The manufacturer states that 100% of its ingredients are of natural origin and that it contains no biocides. It's a simple, clean option for your plant hygiene.

• What sizes can I buy it in?

  Bioleat is available in four sizes: 250 ml, 500 ml, 1 L, and 5 L. The smaller sizes work well for home growing, while the 1 L and 5 L sizes are more cost-effective if you're treating large areas. Since it's concentrated, it goes a long way at the recommended doses.
