Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing, wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Environmental hazards: This pesticide is extremely toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. 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. Sweeping any product that lands on a driveway, sidewalk, or street, back onto the treated area of the lawn or garden will help to prevent run off to water bodies or drainage systems. Directions for Use: It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Apply this product directly to the lawn or garden area. Water treated area as directed on this label. Use Restrictions: Do not make applications during the rain. Do not apply when the wind speed is greater than 15 mph. Do not apply directly to sewers or storm drains, or to any area like a drain or gutter where drainage to sewers, storm drains, water bodies, or aquatic habitat can occur. Do not allow the product to enter any drain during or after application. Do not allow children or pets to enter the area until dry. Do not apply the product into fish pools, ponds, streams, or lakes. Do not apply directly to sewers or storm drains, or to any area like a drain or gutter where drainage to sewers, storm drains, water bodies, or aquatic habitat can occur. Do not allow the product to enter any drain during or after application. Do not apply directly to impervious horizontal surfaces such as sidewalks, driveways, and patios except as a spot or crack-and-crevice treatment. Do not apply or irrigate to the point of runoff. Treat surfaces to ensure thorough coverage but avoid runoff. To treat insects harbored in voids and cracks-and-crevices, applications must be made in such a manner to limit dripping and avoid runoff onto untreated structural surfaces and plants. Ground Application: Do not apply within 25 feet of aquatic habitats (such as, but not limited to, lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams, marshes, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish ponds). Resistance Management: For resistance management, this product contains a Group 34 insecticide/acaricides. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to this product and other Group 3A insecticides/acaricides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides/acaricides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed. To delay insecticide/acaricide resistance, take the following steps: Rotate the use of this product or other Group 3A insecticides/acaricides within a growing season, or among growing seasons, with different groups that control the same pests. Use tank mixtures with insecticides/acaricides from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Do not rely on the same mixture repeatedly for the same pest population Consider any known cross-resistance issues (for the targeted pests) between the individual components of a mixture. In addition, consider the following recommendations provided by the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC): Individual insecticides selected for use in mixtures should be highly effective and be applied at the rates at which they are individually registered for use against the target species. Mixtures with components having the same IRAC mode of action classification are not recommended for insect resistance management. When using mixtures, consider any known cross-resistance issues between the individual components for the targeted pest(s). Mixtures become less effective if resistance is already developing to one or both active ingredients, but they may still provide pest management benefits. The insect resistance management benefits of an insecticide mixture are greatest if the two components have similar periods of residual insecticidal activity. Mixtures of insecticides with unequal periods of residual insecticide activity may offer an insect resistance management benefit only for the period where both insecticides are active. Adopt an integrated pest management program for insecticide/acaricides use that includes scouting uses historical information related to pesticide use, crop rotation, record keeping, and which considers cultural, biological and other chemical control practices. Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of survival suggests the presence of resistance, consult with your local university specialist or certified pest control advisor. Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and pest problems in your area. For further information or to report suspected resistance contact your local sales representative.Manufacturer
