Triple Tiger-99
Triple Tiger-99 is Calcium Polysulphide, commonly known as Lime Sulphur, is a traditional and effective fungicide, insecticide, and miticide. It is widely used in horticulture and agriculture to control fungal diseases, insects, and mites, particularly in dormant or early growth stages of crops.
This multi-purpose solution is formed by the reaction of calcium hydroxide (lime) and elemental sulphur, creating a water-soluble concentrate with strong protective and curative properties. It is effective against powdery mildew, scab, rust, leaf curl, and various insect pests including mites and scales.
Lime Sulphur is especially suitable for use on fruit trees, vines, ornamentals, and plantation crops. It provides reliable disease suppression without harmful residues, making it a preferred option for integrated pest management (IPM).
Technical Name:
Calcium Polysulphide (Lime Sulphur)
Mode of Action:
Calcium Polysulphide works by releasing sulphur compounds that interfere with the respiration of fungal cells and pests. It acts as a contact protectant fungicide and insecticide, disrupting cell membranes and metabolic processes in fungi, mites, and insects.

- Effective against a wide range of fungal diseases and insect pests.
- Ideal for use in dormant-season sprays and early growth stages.
- Low residue and suitable for organic farming practices.
- Improves plant health and supports integrated pest management (IPM).
Suitable Crops:
- Apple
- Grapes
