The instructions should mention testing out on a very small portion of the plant in question beforehand. This is an important step to make sure that your tree will not react negatively.

Usually, any problems that occur with Neem oil will be due to improper application.Problems tend to occur when applying during times of heat, sun, or other stresses. Neem oil is a common remedy for Junipers when applied correctly.

Hmm. I have looked at the instructions and there is nothing that seems useful -- perhaps the relevant section is missing. I have read that Neem Oil is not safe to use on junipers and there is no specific reference to them in the instructions either way. Are you suggesting that this means the answer is not to use Neem Oil?
