NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Carbaryl is a carbamate insecticide, which is a chOlinesterase inhibitor. Overexposure (0 this substance may cause toxic signs and symptoms due to stimulation of the cholinergic nervous system. These ef- fects of overexposure are spontaneously and rapidly reversible. Specific treatment consists of parenteral atropine sulfate, Caution should be maintained to prevent overatropinization. Mild cases may be given 1 to 2 mg intramuscularly every 10 minutes until full atropinization has been achieved and repeated thereafter whenever symptoms reappear. Severe cases should be given 2 to 4 mg intravenously every 10 minutes until fully atropinized, then intramuscularly every 30 to 60 minutes to maintain the effect for at least 12 hours. Dosages for children should be appropriately reduced. Complete re- covery from overexposure is to be expected within 24 hours. Narcotics and other sedatives should not be used. Further, drugs like 2-PAM (pyridine-2-aldoxime methodide) are NOT recommended. 81 WATER- SPRAY SOLUBLE TANK <t-- PAK 4~ PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS Hazards to Humans and Domestic Animals CAUTION: Harmful if swallowed, Harmful if absorbed through skin.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS This product is extremely toxic to aquatic invertebrates. For terrestrial uses, 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 apply when weather conditions favor drift from area treated. Do not contaminate water by cleaning equipment or disposal of wastes. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters. BEE CAUTION: This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or residues on blooming crops or weeds. Do not apply this product or allow it to drift to blooming crops or weeds if bees are visiting the treatment area. Contact your Cooperative Agricultural Extension Service for further information. GENERAL INFORMATION CARBARYL 95 Sprayable is a dry powder for dispersion in water and application as an insecticidal spray in hydraulic sprayers, mist blowers and low-gallonage ground equipment. Use in strict accordance with label directioris and precautions. Special Directions for Preparing Low-Gallonage Spray: In low-gallonage ground equipment-Use 50-mesh or coarser screens in entire system; nozzles should be cone type, number 3 or larger. Use clean equipment. Put about three­ fourths of the required water volume in spray tank. Close off booms, start pump and maintain moderate bypass agitation while slowly adding the proper amount of this product. Add remaining water and continue to recirculate until suspension is uniform; then apply using at least 3 gallons per acre of the prepared spray. After spraying, flush tank and lines with clear water. Combination Spray Mixtures in Low-Gallonage Equipment: Physical com­ patibility of this product with other pesticides in low-gallonage mixtures is not fully known. Before preparing large amounts, combinations should be tested by fully dispersing this product, then adding the other pesticide and the remaining portion of water. DO NOT USE MIXTURES THAT CURDLE OR PRECIPITATE. Incompatibility will reduce insect control and may cause mechanical difficulties or plant injury. Use caution when applying concentrate spray mixtures. Under ad­ verse growing conditions, combinations of this product with some phosphate pes­ ticides may cause foliar injury. COMPATIBILITY

1. This product has been effectively used without plant injury with most common insecticides, miticides, fungicides, nutrients, adjuvants and with petroleum oil as used on Citrus.
2. Compatibility can be affected by water in your locality, various surfactants and other formulation ingredients. Possible plant injury may occur under adverse conditions such as high humidity, drought, improper fertilization, etc.
3. Do not mix this product with nutrients, adjuvants and other pesticides unless your experience indicates that the mixture is effective and will not result in plant injury. If uncertain, prepare a small amount of the mixture and test on a representative portion of the crop.
4. Unstable under highly alkaline conditions. Not effective if used with alkaline materials such as Bordeaux. lime, lime sulfur and casein-lime spreaders. DIRECTIONS FOR WATER-SOLUBLE BAGS Paks containing this product are water-soluble. Do not break open to use partial contenis of the water-SOluble bag. Do not allow pak to become wet prior to adding to the spray tank. Do not handle paks with wet hands. To prepare the spray mix­ ture, drop the required number of unopened paks into spray tank while filling with the appropriate amount of water. Operate the agitator while mixing. Depending on the water temperature and the degree of agitation, the paks should be completely dissolved in approximately 5 minutes from the time they are added to the water. Use the specified dosage of this product in the amount of water necessary to give complete coverage. Determine the total amount to be added to the spray tank based on the rates in the "CROP" section. Note: Products containing boron and/or fertilizers will prevent the water-soluble packet from dissolving. Boron and/or fertilizer products must only be added after packet(s) have completely dissolved. GENERAL USE PRECAUTIONS
5. To avoid possible injury on tender foliage, do not apply when foliage is wet or when rain or excessive humidity is expected during the next 2 days.
6. Does not control Spider mites but is compatible with most common miticides.

RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS: On Apples, avoid use during the pe­ riod from full bloom until 30 days after full bloom unless fruit thinning is de­ sired. Use for pest control during this period may result in fruit removal. Crop Apples Only - for fruit thinning (REI = 12 hours) Pest This Product Per Acre (Ibs.)

• 1.0t03.1 SPECIFIC DIRECTIONS: Observe "BEE CAUTION". For easily thinned varieties: apply 0.2 to 0.5 pound per 100 gal. of spray mixture. For difficull to thin varieties: apply 0.5 to 1.0 pound per 100 gal. of spray mixture. Apply between 10 and 25 days after full bloom. Fac­ tors such as tree age. variety, nutrition, previous crop, pruning, bloom and degree of set favor excessive fruit thinning with this product. Exercise caution to avoid possible yield reduction. Rates may vary depending on variety and local orchard conditions. Consult with your County Extension Service or other experts for advice on the proper use of this product. PRECAUTIONS: The use of this product may result in fruit deformity under certain environmental conditions. Before using on any variety of Apples, the user mList weigh the risk versus benefits when using this prod­ uct. particularly when using between BO% petai fall and 6 mm fruit size. Red Delicious are more sensitive to this phenomenon and in particular, the varieties Bis­ bee, Red Chief and Vailee Spur are very susceptible to conditions causing fruit deformity. Precipitation and temperatures below 6soF increases the possibility of fruit deformity. The use with summer spray oils and wetting agents may increase the risk of fruit deformity and injury. RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS: Do not apply to Quince. Do not use on Pears between the tight flower cluster up to the 20 mm fruit size. Use dur­ ing this period may result in undesirable fruit thinning and/or deformed fruit. Do not apply within 3 days of harvest. Do not apply more than a total of 16 pounds per acre per crop. Do not make more than a total of 8 applications per crop. FOR PROTECTION OF HONEYBEES: Remove all bee hives from orchard to be treated prior to application. Do not apply this product if bees are ac­ tively foraging in orchard. If weed bloom is present, mow the cover crop on the orchard floor prior to applying this' product.
