USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
Users should: Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using
tobacco or using the toilet. Users should remove clothing immediately if
pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Applying this product
when rain is not predicted for the next 24 hours will help reduce potential risk
to aquatic invertebrates by reducing pesticide runoff from the treatment area
into water bodies. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface
water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not
contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters. Drift or run-off
from treated areas is hazardous to fish and aquatic organisms in water adjacent
to treated areas. Treated seed exposed on the soil surface may be hazardous to
wildlife. Cover or collect seeds spilled during loading.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent
with its labeling.
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons,
either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during
application. Not for use on agricultural establishments in hopper-box, planter-box,
slurry-box or other seed treatment applications at or immediately before
planting. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency
responsible for pesticide regulation.
STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage or disposal.
PESTICIDE STORAGE
Store in a cool, dry place and in such a manner as to prevent cross
contamination with other pesticides, fertilizers, food, and feed. Store in original
container and out of the reach of children, preferably in a locked storage area.
Handle and open container in a manner as to prevent spillage. If container
is leaking, invert to prevent leakage. If the container is leaking or material is
spilled for any reason or cause, carefully dam up spilled material to prevent
runoff. Refer to Precautionary Statements on label for hazards associated with
the handling of this material. Do not walk through spilled material. Absorb
spilled material with absorbing type compounds and dispose of as directed
for pesticides below. In spill or leak incidents, keep unauthorized people
away. You may contact the Bayer CropScience Emergency Response Team for
decontamination procedures or any other assistance that may be necessary.
The Bayer CropScience Emergency Response Telephone No. is 1-800-334-7577.
PESTICIDE DISPOSAL
Wastes resulting from the use of this product may be disposed of on site or at
an approved waste disposal facility.
CONTAINER DISPOSAL
Rigid, Non-refillable containers small enough to shake (i.e., with capacities
equal to or less than 5 gallons).
Non-refillable container. Do not reuse or refill this container. Offer for recycling,
if available. Triple rinse or pressure rinse container (or equivalent) promptly
after emptying.
Triple rinse as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application
equipment or a mix tank and drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to
drip. Fill the container ¼ full with water and recap. Shake for 10 seconds.
Pour rinsate into application equipment or a mix tank or store rinsate for later
use or disposal. Drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Repeat this
procedure two more times.
Pressure rinse as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application
equipment or a mix tank and continue to drain for 10 seconds after the flow
begins to drip. Hold container upside down over application equipment or mix
tank or collect rinsate for later use or disposal. Insert pressure rinsing nozzle
in the side of the container, and rinse at about 40 PSI for at least 30 seconds.
Drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip.
Once container is rinsed, offer for recycling if available, or puncture and
dispose of in a sanitary landfill.
Rigid Non-refillable containers that are too large to shake (i.e., with
capacities greater than 5 gallons or 50 lbs)
Non-refillable containers - Do not reuse or refill this container. After emptying
product from container, either return container to Bayer CropScience per
instructions from Bayer CropScience Customer Service Center (1-800-527-4781),
or rinse and either recycle or dispose of the container as follows:
Bottom Discharge IBC (e.g. – Schuetz Caged IBC or Snyder Square Stackable)
Pressure rinsing the container before final disposal is the responsibility of the
person disposing of the container. To pressure rinse the container before final
disposal, empty the remaining contents from the IBC into application equipment
or mix tank. Raise the bottom of the IBC by 1.5 inches on the side which is
opposite of the bottom discharge valve to promote more complete product
removal. Completely remove the top lid of the IBC. Use water pressurized to
at least 40 PSI to rinse all interior portions. Continuously pump or drain rinsate
into application equipment or rinsate collection system while pressure rinsing.
Continue pressure rinsing for 2 minutes or until rinsate becomes clear. Replace
the lid and close bottom valve.
Top Discharge IBC, Drums, Kegs (e.g.– Snyder 120 Next Gen, Bonar
B120, Drums, and Kegs). Triple rinsing the container before final disposal
is the responsibility of the person disposing of the container. To triple rinse
the container before final disposal, empty the remaining contents from this
container into application equipment or mix tank. Fill the container at least
10 percent full with water. Agitate vigorously or recirculate water with the
pump for 2 minutes. Rinse all interior surfaces. Pour or pump rinsate into
application equipment or rinsate collection system. Repeat this procedure
two more times.
Once container is rinsed, offer for recycling if available or puncture and
dispose of in a sanitary landfill.
Refillable Containers

recycle or dispose of the container as follows:
Bottom Discharge IBC (e.g. – Schuetz Caged IBC or Snyder Square Stackable)
Pressure rinsing the container before final disposal is the responsibility of the
person disposing of the container. Cleaning before refilling is the responsibility
of the refiller. To pressure rinse the container before final disposal, empty
the remaining contents from the IBC into application equipment or mix tank.

or clean container. See Container Disposal instructions under Storage and
Disposal.
LABELING OF TREATED SEED
Seed commercially treated with TRILEX Flowable Fungicide must be labeled in
accordance with all applicable requirements of the Federal Seed Act. All bags
containing treated seed must be labeled or tagged as follows:
• This seed has been treated with trifloxystrobin.
• Do not use for feed, food or oil processing.
• Store away from feeds and other foodstuffs.
• When opening this bag or loading/pouring the treated seed, wear a
long-sleeved shirt, long pants, shoes, socks, and chemical resistant gloves.
After the seeds have been planted, do not enter or allow worker entry into
treated areas during the restricted entry interval of 12 hours. Exception: Once
the seeds are planted in soil or other planting media, the Worker Protection
Standard allows workers to enter the treated area without restriction if there
will be no worker contact with the treated seeds in the soil or planting media.
FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT (FRAC)
RECOMMENDATIONS
For resistance management, please note that TRILEX Flowable Fungicide
contains a Group 11 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals
naturally resistant to TRILEX Flowable Fungicide and other Group 11 fungicides.
A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these (fungicides)
are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management
strategies should be followed.
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
• Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide use that
includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, and crop
rotation, and which considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental
conditions on disease development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural,
biological and other chemical control practices.
• Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance development.
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any
additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for
specific crops and pathogens.
• For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Bayer
CropScience at 1-866-99BAYER (1-866-992-2937). You can also contact your
pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance.
