Honey Fungus

Hi sll,

I've taken on a new client today, whose front garden is infested with honey fungus. Does anyone know of any professional chemicals that deal with this well that are still available?

  • As far as I know there's nothing particularly effective available any more...

  • Sadly Ben is correct - I Ran out of Armatillox in May and since have tried MMC Pro which is not cleared for use on grassed areas, but still kills moss in grass and does not kill the grass.... sadly Nil effect on honey fungus,

    I Am currently trying Amistar - which I was reccomended by a retired forester - It is so far moderately effective, with a privet treated in July sending masses of new growth out from ground level, but anything affected prior to treatment is still, well, shot.

    A far cry from armatillox's effectiveness but all we legally have left!

  • From what i am told its the same product however its not been approved for use on amenity grass.
    Apparently it costs a large amount of money to get product approval, to much money for a small manufacturer to afford going through the process with the volume they would sell.
    Please do your own homework this is just hearsay.

  • correct armitallox is now only sold as a cleaning agent as cleaning is a side effect of it, a quirk of regulation there.

    Big problem, no one has any stock at all, full stop--- It hasnt been manufactured for well over a year or more now, and the manufacturer has no plans to restart soon -

    If you do find a supplier with stock, please lt me know, I will clear them out!

    Heres my thread on this very subject (honey fungus and armitallox) back in April;'

    Hi David there is some on Amazon £80 a bottle if it's the same stuff.
    Can't seem to add a link to it.
  • You know how embarrassing it can be when you accidentally type in http://www.armillatox.com/ instead of http://www.armillatox.co.uk...?
