Can I spray fruit trees in direct sunlight with the Bonide Fruit Tree Spray Concentrate?

I see the instructions recommend spraying in the early morning or evening when the winds are calm and it's not in the heat of the day. My question is, if I spray early in the morning on a sunny day, will direct sunlight on the oily leaves harm the tree? How soon before the sun gets hot do I need to spray? Thank you.

Answer:

As long as you are not applying the Bonide Fruit Tree Spray in the heat of the day then spraying when sunlight is hitting directly on the trees will not harm it. That being said, if you have the option to spray when there is no direct sunlight on the tree (typically more in the late evening) then that is a preferred time to spray.
