Environmental Hazards
This product is extremely toxic to fish. Drift and runoff from treated areas may be
hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighboring areas. Do not apply to application
sites adjacent to surface water, including ornamental fish ponds, unless a
vegetative buffer strip exists between the application area and the surface water.
To protect the environment, do not allow pesticide to enter or run off into storm
drains, drainage ditches, gutters or surface waters. Applying this product in calm
weather when rain is not predicted for the next 24 hours will help to ensure that
wind or rain does not blow or wash pesticide off the treatment area. Rinsing
application equipment over the treated area will help avoid run off to water
bodies or drainage systems.
This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or residues on
blooming plants. Do not apply this product to listed fruit trees, ornamental trees,
shrubs & flowers during bloom. Do not allow pesticide to drift to non-target
blooming crops or weeds if bees are visiting or foraging the treatment area.
