CAUTION
HAZARDS TO HUMANS (and DOMESTIC ANIMALS)
Harmful if swallowed, inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Causes moderate eye irritation. Avoid breathing vapors or
spray mist. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Keep out of reach of children and domestic animals. Wash
thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the
toilet. Wear long sleeved shirt and long pants, socks, shoes, and gloves. Remove and wash contaminated clothing
before reuse.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)
Applicators and other handlers must wear long-sleeved shirt and long pants, waterproof gloves, shoes plus socks and
chemical resistant headgear for overhead exposure.
Discard clothing and other absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contaminated with this product's
concentrate. Do not reuse them. Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If there are no such
instructions for washables, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the
Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240 (d)(4-6)], the handler PPE requirements
may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.----------------------
( ( VSot\ \ '''~~ EPA Reg. No. 8033-94 DRAFT Notification July 6, 2010; revised July 9, 2010 User Safety Recommendations Users should wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing. ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS This product is toxic to wildlife. This product is toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment. Do not apply this product while bees are actively visiting the treated area. 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 washwater or rinsate. Do not contaminate water used for irrigation or domestic purposes. Ground Water Advisory: This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in ground water. This chemical may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow. Surface Water Advisory: This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having high potential for reaching surface water via runoff for several days after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of acetamiprid from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall is forecasted to occur within 48 hours. SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT: The interaction of many equipment factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applicator is responsible for considering all of these factors when making application decisions. Avoiding spray drift Is the responsibility of the applicator. IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE FOR OUTDOOR USE: An important factor influencing drift is droplet size. Small droplets « 150 to 200 microns) drift to a greater extent than large droplets. Within typical equipment specifications, applications should be made to deliver the largest droplet spectrum that provides sufficient control and coverage. Formation of very small droplets may be minimized by appropriate nozzle selection, by orienting nozzles away from the air stream as much as possible and by avoiding excessive spray boom pressure. Spray should be released at the lowest possible height consistent with good pest control. DIRECTIONS FOR USE It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in any manner inconsistent with its labeling. Read entire label before using this product. Ornamentals, vegetable transplant, and greenhouse-grown tomato use only; not for woodlands or forest management. 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. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation. AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR part 170. This standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted-entry intervals.

FOR BASAL BARK TREATMENT OF TREES (ORNAMENTAL OR NON-BEARING FRUIT AND NUT)
TriStar 30 SG may be applied as an external basal bark application to ornamental and non-bearing fruit and nut
trees for control of borers (such as Flathead Apple Borer), scale insects (such as Calico Scale, Gloomy Scale,
Azalea Bark Scale) and Hemlock Wooly Adelgids in hard to spray or environmentally sensitive areas. This
application involves wetting the bark of the tree starting from a height of approximately 8 feet downwards to the
exposed root flair with a directed spray to completely wet the application area. Depending on the specific bark
characteristics, use 3-4 fluid ounces of spray per inch Diameter Breast Height (DBH at 4.5 feet) of the intended
target.
Application Instructions
- Depending on insect target, treatments may begin at bud break through full leaf expansion in early to mid Spring. Consult your local extension service recommendations for the target pest. Make applications as required for preventative or curative management of pest.
- Using a low pressure (10-25 PSI), small volume handcan or backpack sprayer, mix 4-8 oz of TriStar 30 SG per gallon of water with an organo-silicate adjuvant according to the adjuvant product instructions. Apply as a full coverage spray starting at the top of the application zone and working downwards to the root flair. One gallon should treat approximately 36-42 total inches of treatment DBH depending on bark surface.
- Do not apply to wet bark, or during rainfall, or if rain is expected within 12 hours after application.
- Do not apply as a drench to the soil. FOR TREE INJECTION APPLICATION TO ORNAMENTAL OR NON-BEARING FRUIT AND NUT TREES TriStar 30 SG may be applied by injection directly into ornamental or non-bearing fruit and nut trees for control of borers (such as Flathead Apple Borer), scale insects (such as Calico Scale, Gloomy Scale, Azalea Bark Scale) and Hemlock Wooly Adelgids in hard to spray or environmentally sensitive areas using the Arborjet IV, Wedgle Direct-Inject or similar compatible systems. General Directions: Depending on the injection equipment used, multiple injection sites may be required. To determine the initial number of injection holes, measure the DBH using a standard forestry tape measure. For circumference, divide the measurement by six (6) to determine the number of holes needed. For Diameter, divide the measurement by two (2) to determine the number of holes needed. Initial injection sites should be in active sapwood, evenly spaced around the tree at the root buttress region and avoiding the root valleys. Follow manufacturer instructions for the specific device for proper injection practices and to minimize tree damage. 6
