I am trying to find a spray for apple rust called Firbam

Posted on December 30, 2001

Question:
I am trying to find a spray for apple rust called Firbam or Verbam or something like that. Have you heard of this and do you know where I could obtain it? Thank you.

Answer:
I cannot say for certain but this may be a restricted chemical that only a registered applicator could purchase. Daconil can be used and is available if you cannot obtain the others you are searching for. On any fungus it is imperative that you target the right season for spraying. Also, in the case of cedar apple rest, ridding your self of the host plant could end the disease also. Good luck, Chuck
