NON-AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
The requirements in this box apply to uses of this product that are NOT within the scope of the

PRODUCT INFORMATION
This product is a systemic insecticide and will be translocated upward within the plant. The
active ingredient in this product has sufficient residual activity so that application s can be made
preceding the egg laying activity of the target pests. To assure optimum effectiveness, the
product must be placed where the roots of the plant can absorb the active ingredient. Irrigate
modestly, but thoroughly after applicatio n, allowing no leaching and runoff form treatment area.
High levels of control can be achieved when applications are made preceding or during the
egg laying period. The need for an application can be based on historical monitoring of the site,
previous records or experiences, current season adult trapping or other methods.
DO NOT apply when treatment area is water saturated. The treated area must be in such a
condition that rainfall or irrigation will penetrate vertically into the soil profile.
RESTRICTION: DO NOT apply more than a total of 80 lb (0.4 lb of active ingredient) per acre
per year.
Resistance: Some insects are known to develop resistance to Insecticides after repeated
use. As with any insecticide, the use of this product should conform to resistance management
strategies established for the use area. Consult your Cooperative Extension Service for
resistance management strategies and recommended pest management practices for your area.
Woody Perennials: Onset of protection is slower than in herbaceous species. A delay of
2 or more weeks should be expected. Longer delays may be expected with larger plants.
Application should therefore be made in advance of expected insect activity.
