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

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.
