Tea tree oil is an essential oil that has been used as a traditional medicine by Aborigines for centuries to treat a number of common health complaints including acne, dandruff and even as an insect repellent. Thanks to a number of proven health benefits, these days tea tree oil is available all over the world and comes in various forms including tinctures, creams, handwash and soaps. All products from Australian Bodycare are dermatologically tested, and this of course also applies to Body Wash, which is skin-friendly and suitable for daily washing and cleansing of the skin. Normally an apple tree will have two types of growth.

Tea tree oil applied topically to the skin has been found to be safe, but some people may experience a skin reaction, so always do a patch test before use. The time is ripe for garden enthusiasts to protect trees and bushes from insects and aphids looking for prime spots to lay their eggs this winter.

In addition to Winter Tree Wash, Vitax has formulated Fruit Tree Grease to specifically deter winter moths and other fruit tree loving insects.
