Use a system control by Bayer for roses,it is a insect,fungus and fertilizer in one and will aid in keeping the plant deathly all season -

If either of the above fail, you can try Neem Oil is a good remedy as well.. Can be purchased at most nurseries, home depot....It can be used on roses, herbs, vegetables.....worked very well for me. Good luck- See 2 previous

I had the same problem. Some one suggested I sprinkle cayenne pepper at the base of the roses. I did and haven't had a problem in several years. -

Parv, Most products are cold pressed, organic and come in a concentrate. I put it in a spray bottle and mix as per the ratio on the bottle. The one I have been using is approx. 1 tsp/ qt. of warm water. It goes a long way. Usually spray once every 7 days or so, pending rain and such....or if really infested, you can spray every day.... but I usually do it once and then just "monitor" it.There a ton of different brands, but I have been using a brand called Bonide and have been getting good results. -

Cinnamon works for black mold. And so does spraying the leaves with baking soda water for white powder mold.- See 2 previous

That's very interesting. We are having a big problem with ants this spring. I hate to kill them I just want them to move away from my garden
