Sulphur dust powder is popular with many gardeners as an economical alternative to expensive pre-packaged vegetable and tomato dusts as a pesticide and fungicide. It is also popular as a way to lower soil PH. Sulphur dust is normally applied in the same way as other vegetable dusts are, but it can also be mixed with water but this is not ideal since this form of sulphur is not very water soluble.

Sulphur is renown as an excellent fungicide but also has some insecticidal properties. Other popular uses for sulphur include mite control for chooks, internal parasites in certain animals and for skin ailments in dogs.

According to this dog breeders website, sulphur powder when mixed in a certain way with oil can treat various skin problems in dogs like, mange, flea bites, non-specific dermatitis, itchy skin, ant bites, and infected wounds. See link above for more information.

Frequently asked Questions:

Q. In what country is this Sulphur powder made?

A. On the label of the current stock we have it says made in Turkey (01/03/21)

Q. Is this the same product as "Flowers of Sulphur"?

A. I've looked extensively online and from my research, it seems that Flower of Sulphur and Sulphur Powder are essentially the same thing. People in the UK and US sometimes use the term flowers of sulphur but in Australia it's simply called Sulphur powder.

Q. What type of Sulphur is this?

A. As far we know it's Elemental Sulphur. We've seen that written on the bags in the past but not currently. Our supplier didn't know what type of sulphur it was. They just call it Sulphur Powder 99.9%
