OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS WHEN SPRAYING IN THE VICINITY OF AQUATIC AREAS SUCH AS LAKES;
RESERVOIRS; RIVERS; PERMANENT STREAMS, MARSHES OR NATURAL PONDS; ESTUARIES AND COMMERCIAL
FISH FARM PONDS.
Buffer Zone Requirements:
Vegetative Buffer Strip:
Construct and maintain a minimum 10-foot-wide vegetative filter strip of grass or other permanent vegetation between
the field edge and down gradient aquatic habitat (such as, but not limited to, lakes; reservoirs; rivers; permanent streams;
marshes or natural ponds; estuaries; and commercial fish farm ponds).
Only apply products containing Beta Cyfluthrin onto fields where a maintained vegetative buffer strip of at least 10 feet
exists between the field and down gradient aquatic habitat.
For guidance, refer to the following publication for information on constructing and maintaining effective buffers:
Conservation Buffers to Reduce Pesticide Losses. Natural Resources Conservation Services. USDA, NRCS. 2000. Fort
Worth, Texas. 21 pp. http://www.in.nrcs.usda.gov/technical/agronomy/newconbuf.pdf.
Buffer Zone for Ground Application (groundboom, overhead chemigation, or airblast)
Do not apply within 25 feet of aquatic habitats (such as, but not limited to, lakes reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams;
marshes or natural ponds, estuaries, and commercial fishponds).
Buffer Zone for ULV Aerial Application
Do not apply within 450 feet of aquatic habitats (such as, but not limited to, lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent
streams; marshes or natural ponds, estuaries, and commercial fishponds).
Buffer Zone for Non-ULV Aerial Application
Do not apply within 150 feet of aquatic habitats (such as, but not limited to, lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent
streams; marshes or natural ponds, estuaries, and commercial fishponds).
Spray Drift Requirements
Wind Direction and Speed:
Only apply this product if the wind direction favors on-target deposition.
Do not apply when the wind velocity exceeds 15 mph.
Temperature Inversion:
Do not make aerial or ground applications into temperature inversions.
4
4.375”
3.875”
4.0”
3.5”
COPY AREA
COPY AREA
Inversions are characterized by stable air and increasing temperatures with height above the ground. Mist or fog
may indicate the presence of an inversion in humid areas. The applicator may detect the presence of an inversion by
producing smoke and observing a smoke layer near the ground surface.
Droplet Size:
Use only Medium or coarser spray nozzles (for ground and non-ULV aerial application) according to ASAE (S572)
definition for standard nozzles. In conditions of low humidity and high temperatures, applicators should use a coarser
droplet size.
Additional Requirements for Ground Applications
Wind speed must be measured adjacent to the application site on the upwind side, immediately prior to application.
For ground boom applications, apply using a nozzle height of no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy.
For airblast applications, turn off outward pointing nozzles at row ends and when spraying the outer two rows. To
minimize spray loss over the top in orchard applications, spray must be directed into the canopy.
Additional Requirements for Aerial Applications
The spray boom should be mounted on the aircraft as to minimize drift caused by wingtip or rotor vortices. The
minimum practical boom length should be used and must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 80% rotor diameter.
Flight speed and nozzle orientation must be considered in determining droplet size.
Spray must be released at the lowest height consistent with pest control and flight safety. Do not release spray at a height
greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety.
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator must compensate
for this displacement at the downwind edge of the application area by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.
RUNOFF MANAGEMENT
Do not cultivate within 10 feet of the aquatic areas to allow growth of a vegetative filter strip. When used on erodible
soils, best management practices for minimizing runoff should be employed. Consult your local Soil Conservation
Service for recommendations in your use area. Do not apply if soil is saturated with water. Do not apply under
conditions that favor drift from runoff. Do not apply in the rain.
INSECT RESISTANCE STATEMENT
Some insects are known to develop resistance to products used repeatedly for control. Because the development
of resistance cannot be predicted, the use of this product should conform to resistance management strategies
established for the use area. Consult your local or State agricultural authorities for details. If resistance to this product

COPY AREA
develops in your area, this product alone may not continue to provide adequate control of resistant pests. If poor
performance cannot be attributed to improper application, extreme weather conditions, etc., a resistant strain of insect
may be present. If you experience difficulty with control and resistance is a reasonable cause, immediately consult your
local company representative or agricultural advisor/state Extension agent for the best alternative method of control
in your area. Consult your state Cooperative Extension Service agent or agricultural advisor for insect resistance
management strategies and recommended insect control methods in your area.
PHYSICAL OR CHEMICAL HAZARDS
Do not use or store near heat or open flame.

PRODUCT INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS
Unless specified otherwise in the crop-specific application section, BAYTHROID XL may be applied by the
following methods:
Foliar Spray Application
Foliar applications may be made using properly calibrated ground sprayers, fixed- or rotary-winged aircraft or through
properly designed, sprinkler-type, chemigation equipment (See Chemigation Application directions below). Thorough
and uniform coverage of plants, with direct contact of the spray mixture to the target pests, is required for satisfactory
control.
Avoid application procedures where thorough coverage of plant is not possible. Applications made with less than
thorough coverage may result in slower activity and/or less overall control from a single application than an application
made with higher gallonage. Refer to Spray Drift Reduction Management section for application guidelines on
minimizing drift from all application methods.
Ground applications should be made in a minimum of 10 gallons/A unless specified otherwise in crop-specific
application section.
Aerial applications should be made in a minimum of 2 gallons/A unless specified otherwise in crop-specific
application section, however 5 gallons/A are recommended. See crop specific gallonage requirements. Aerial
applications made to dense canopies may not provide sufficient coverage of lower leaves or interior plant portions to
provide pest control. Higher labeled rates of BAYTHROID XL may be necessary for aerial applications.
Chemigation applications (See Chemigation Application directions below) should be made as concentrated as
possible. For best results apply at 100% input/travel speed, for center pivots or 0.1 inch (2,716 gallons) up to 0.15
inch (4,073 gallons) of water/A, for other systems. Higher labeled rates of BAYTHROID XL may be necessary for
chemigation applications.
Chemigation Application
Types of Irrigation Systems: BAYTHROID XL may be applied through sprinkler type irrigation systems only. These
types include; center pivot, lateral move, or solid set irrigation systems. Do not apply BAYTHROID XL through any
other type of irrigation system.
Injection for Chemigation: Inject the specified dosage of BAYTHROID XL into the irrigation main, water stream: (1)
through a constant flow, metering device; (2) into the center of the main line flow via a pitot tube or equivalent; (3)
at a point ahead of at least one, right-angle turn in main stream flow such that thorough mixing with the irrigation
water is ensured.

COPY AREA
COPY AREA
Uniform Water Distribution and System Calibration: The irrigation system must provide uniform distribution of
BAYTHROID XL treated water. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in or on the crop can
result from non-uniform distribution. The system must be calibrated to uniformly distribute the rates specified for
chemigation application to specific crops. If you have questions about calibration, contact your Cooperative Extension
Service agent, equipment manufacturers, or other experts.
Chemigation Monitoring: A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation,
or under the supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments
should the need arise.
Required Injection and Sprinkler System Safety Devices: The system must contain a functional check valve,
vacuum relief valve, and low-pressure drain, appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source
contamination from back-flow. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing
check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a
functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to
the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either
automatically or manually shut down. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut
off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor/engine stops or in cases where there is no water pump,
when water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected. Injection systems must
use a metering pump or equivalent, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump, venturi
injection) effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being
fitted with a system interlock.
Using Water from Public Water Systems: Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped
water for human consumption if such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at
least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year. Chemigation systems connected to public water systems
must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone, back flow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the water
supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water
system should be discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical
break (air gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and to top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the
inside diameter of the fill pipe. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional automatic quick-closing check
valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional
normally closed solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system

interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically
or manually shut down. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide
injection pump when the water pump motor stops or in cases where there is no water pump, when the water pressure
decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected. Systems must use a metering pump such as
a positive displacement injection pump (e.g. diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials that
are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
Chemical Supply Tank Dilution and Agitation: For injection of BAYTHROID XL, use a chemical supply tank for
pre-mixing BAYTHROID XL with either water or non-emulsifiable oil before injecting mixture into the irrigation line.
Dilution ratio should be at least 4 parts of either water/ or non-emulsifiable oil to 1 part BAYTHROID XL. If necessary,
constant mechanical or hydraulic agitation should be maintained in the chemical supply tank during the entire period
of application. Determine the required amounts of BAYTHROID XL and either water or non-emulsifiable oil to mix
in the tank. The amount of BAYTHROID XL needed equals the number of fluid oz of BAYTHROID XL to be applied
per acre multiplied by the number of acres to be chemigated. The amount of emulsion needed equals the gallons of
emulsion delivered per hour by the injection pump, multiplied by the number of hours chemigation will take place.
The amount of either water or non-emulsifiable oil needed equals the amount of emulsion needed minus the amount
of BAYTHROID XL needed.
Cleaning the Chemical Injection System: In order to apply pesticides accurately, the chemical injection system must
be kept clean; free from chemical or fertilizer residues and sediments. Refer to your owners manual or ask your
equipment supplier for the cleaning procedure for your injection system.
Flushing the Irrigation System: At the end of the application period, allow time for all lines to flush the pesticide
through all nozzles before turning off irrigation water. To ensure the lines are flushed and free of pesticides, a dye
indicator may be injected into the lines to mark the end of the application period.
Center-Pivot and Automatic-Move Linear Systems: Inject the specified dosage per acre continuously for one complete
revolution (center pivot) or move of the system. The system should be run at maximum speed. It is recommended
that nozzles in the immediate area of control panels, chemical supply tanks, pumps, and system safety devices be
plugged to prevent chemical contamination of these areas. The use of END GUNS is NOT recommended. End guns
that provide uneven distribution of treated water can result in crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide
residues in or on the crop.
Solid Set and Manually Controlled Linear Systems: Injection should be during the last 30 to 60 minutes of a regular
irrigation period or as a separate 30 to 60 minute application not associated with a regular irrigation.

CROP USE DIRECTIONS
For all crops, apply specific dosage of BAYTHROID XL at early threshold for target pest, as population begins to
develop. Degree of control or suppression of additional labeled pests will be determined, in part by the stage of pest
development at application and infestation level of those pests.
Application timing should be based on careful scouting and local economic thresholds. BAYTHROID XL may be applied
before, during, or after planting. Use the higher rates for moderate to heavy insect pressure. Lower rates are generally
adequate for low to moderate insect pressure but require careful scouting and may require more frequent application.
BAYTHROID XL is an Emulsifiable Concentrate formulation and is active by contact and ingestion. Thorough coverage
is necessary for optimum performance.

Soil Application Notes
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS: BAYTHROID XL may be applied in water or in liquid, pop-up fertilizer at planting.
Apply in a minimum of 2 GPA of total mix volume when applied in water. Good agitation must be maintained at all
times during application.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR LIQUID POP-UP FERTILIZER APPLICATION: Perform a compatibility test prior to mixing
the entire tank to ensure that BAYTHROID XL will remain in solution while applying. Take a known amount of the
fertilizer to be used as a carrier and place in a glass jar. Add the appropriate amount of BAYTHROID XL based on
the labeled use rate. Add other components to be tank mixed. Gently agitate the solution. Examine the solution for
signs of incompatibility such as flocculation, precipitation, separation, etc. If incompatibility occurs, contact your
local Bayer CropScience representative for additional information. Fertilizers containing zinc have been shown to be
incompatible with BAYTHROID XL.
PLACEMENT: Total mix volume should be applied in the open furrow ahead of the closing wheels for optimum
coverage.
**ROW WIDTH: The above rate calculations are based on standard 30 in. row spacing. For row spacing less than
30 inches, adjust rate not to exceed 2.8 fluid oz/A (0.022 lb AI/Acre) . Diminished control may occur when rate is
decreased below specified rate per 1000 row-ft.

CROP USE DIRECTIONS
For all crops, apply specific dosage of BAYTHROID XL at early threshold for target pest, as population begins to
develop. Degree of control or suppression of additional labeled pests will be determined, in part by the stage of pest
development at application and infestation level of those pests.
Application timing should be based on careful scouting and local economic thresholds. BAYTHROID XL may be
applied before, during, or after planting. Use the higher rates for moderate to heavy insect pressure. Lower rates
are generally adequate for low to moderate insect pressure but require careful scouting and may require more
frequent application.
BAYTHROID XL is an Emulsifiable Concentrate formulation and is active by contact and ingestion. Thorough
coverage is necessary for optimum performance.

Soil Application Notes
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS: BAYTHROID XL may be applied in water or in liquid, pop-up fertilizer at planting.
Apply in a minimum of 2 GPA of total mix volume when applied in water. Good agitation must be maintained at all
times during application.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR LIQUID POP-UP FERTILIZER APPLICATION: Perform a compatibility test prior to mixing
the entire tank to ensure that BAYTHROID XL will remain in solution while applying. Take a known amount of the
fertilizer to be used as a carrier and place in a glass jar. Add the appropriate amount of BAYTHROID XL based on
the labeled use rate. Add other components to be tank mixed. Gently agitate the solution. Examine the solution for
signs of incompatibility such as flocculation, precipitation, separation, etc. If incompatibility occurs, contact your
local Bayer CropScience representative for additional information. Fertilizers containing zinc have been shown to be
incompatible with BAYTHROID XL.
PLACEMENT: Total mix volume should be applied in the open furrow ahead of the closing wheels for optimum
coverage.

CROP USE DIRECTIONS
For all crops, apply specific dosage of BAYTHROID XL at early threshold for target pest, as population begins to
develop. Degree of control or suppression of additional labeled pests will be determined, in part by the stage of pest
development at application and infestation level of those pests.
Specified application rates within this label are based on full-size mature trees and vines. Application timing should
be based on careful scouting and local economic thresholds. Use the higher rates for moderate to heavy insect
pressure or when applying by air. Lower rates are generally adequate for smaller trees/vines or low to moderate
insect pressure but require careful scouting and may require more frequent application.
BAYTHROID XL is an Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC) formulation and is active by contact and ingestion. For tree
and vine crops, apply by ground or air equipment using sufficient water to obtain through coverage of target plant
parts for optimum performance.
