ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS 
This pestiCide is toxic to fish, birds, and other wildlife. Birds feeding on treated areas may be killed. Do not apply directly to water, or to 
areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Due to the risk of runoff and drift. do not 
apply within a distance of 300 feet of lakes, ponds, streams and estuaries. Shrimp and crab may be killed at application rates 
recommended on this label. Do not apply where fish, shrimp, crab, and other aquatic I~e are important resources. Do not contaminate 
water by deaning of equipment or disposal of eqUipment washwaters. This product must not be used in areas where impact on 
threatened endangered species is likely. Contact your State Fish and Game Agency before applying this product. Apply this product 
only as specified on this label. This pesticide is toxic 10 bees exposed to direct application. Applications should be timed to coincide with 
periods of minimum bee activrty, usually between late evening and early morning.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 
Not for use or storage in or around residential sties, including homes, non-agr1cultural outbuildings, non-commercial 
greenhouses. recreational vehicles, preschools. day care cente",. and not for applications to humans and pets_ 
Do not use in undiluted form. 
Apply the listed amount per acre when insects first appear and repeat as required, unless otherwise noted, to maintain effective control. 
Use in sufficient water for thorough coverage of listed crops, unless otherwise noted. Coverage of upper and lower leaf surfaces is 
essential for good control. For ground application, apply recommended amount of pesticide in a minimum of 10 gallons of water per
