Horticultural mineral oils (HMOs), also known as spray oils, can be used to control pests on fruit trees. HMOs are highly refined oils that kill insects by suffocating them. The oil blocks the air holes (spiracles) through which insects breathe, causing them to die from asphyxiation. HMOs also create a thin layer around the surface of insect eggs, stopping gaseous exchanges and disrupting the metabolism of eggs.
