water, or areas where surfac6 water is present, or intertidal 
areas below the .ean high water .ark, except for use on rice. 
Discharge fro. rice fields .ay kill aquatic and estuarine 
invertebrates. Do not contaainate water by cleaning of equip.ent 
; or disposal of wastes. This product is highly toxic to bees 
exposed to direct treataent or residUes on bloo.ing crops or

COMPATIBILITY 
1. Carbaryl SOW 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 inqredients. 
Possible plant injury way occur under adverse conditions such 
as high humidity, drought, iaproper fertilization, etc. 
3. Do not mix Carbaryl SOW with nutrients, adjuvants and other 
p~sticides unless your experience indicates that the mixture 
is effective, and will not result in plant injury. If 
uncertain, prepare a saall aJlOunt of the aixture and test on a 
represontative portion of the crop. 
4. Compatible with petroleUJI oil as used on citrus. Do not use 
with su.aer oils on deciduous fruit. 
S. Unstable under highly alkaline conditions. Not effective if 
used with alkaline .aterials such as Bordeaux, lime, Ii .. 
sulfur and casein-line ~preaders. 
GENERAL CAUTIONS 
1. 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. 
2. Does not control spider .ites but is coapatible with common 
miticides.

residues when Carbaryl 50W is used in accordance with label 
~irections. Pre-harvest and grazing use limitations are listed at 
~he end of the directions for each crop use. Where no pre-harvest 
or grazing time limitations are stated, application can be made 
to the day ot harv.st and crops can be grazed without any tt.e

IMPORTANT: The directions on this label are based on tests and 
field experience relating to (a) effectiveness; and (b) possible 
injury to plants and ani~als; and (c) residues in food, feed,

RacoJllJllended dosages refer to pounds of Carbaryl 50W per 100 
gallons of dilute spray in conventional hydraulic-type sprayers. 
Apply dilute sprays for full coverage. spray gallonage will vary 
according to tree size, density, planting distance and stage of 
growth. With concentrate spray, where lower volumes of spray are 
applied per acre, the concentration of Carbaryl 50W should be 
increased in the spray mixture so that the amount of Carbaryl SOW 
applied per acre is equivalent to a full coverage dilute spray. 
Keep spray mixtures well agitated. Additional instructions appear 
with the crop categories below. 
ALMOND - Use 2 pounds for peach twig borer, San Jose scale and 
fruittree leafroller. Apply in "popcorn" or petal fall stages and 
again when the May brood of the peach twig borer begins to hatch 
or thereafter as needed. 
APPLES and PEARS - Application of Carbaryl 50W within 30 days 
after full bloom may also provide apple thinning; to avoid this, 
delay use until at least 30 days after bloom. Foliar injury may 
result from combination with ~ummer oils west of the Rocky 
Mountains, or when used before second cover on York and McIntosh 
apples east of the Rocky Mountains. 
West of the Rocky Mountains: Use 1 1/2 to 2 pounds for apple 
sucker, apple aphid, woolly apple aphid, baqworas, C&lifornia

wora, lyqt~s bugs, orange tortrix, pear psylla, tentifora 
leafainers, lecaniua scales, oysterahell scale, and San Jose 
scale. For optimum scale control apply when crawlers are present. 
For psylla control apply when eggs hatch or when young nymphs are 
present. When heavy aphid infestations are present repeated 
applications may be necessary for optimum control. 
East of the Rocky Mountajns: Use 1 pound for apple mealybug, 
apple aphid, codling moth and white apple leafhopper. When heavy 
aphid infestations are present, repeated applications may be 
necessary for optimum control. Use 2 pounds for apple maggot, 
bagworms, eastern tent caterpillar, European apple sawfly, 
eyespotted bud moth, fruittree leafroller, green fruitworm, 
Japanese beetle, lesser appleworm, pear psylla, periodical 
cicada, plum curculio, redbanded leafroller, rosy apply aphid,

For optimum scale control, apply when crawlers are present. To 
control rosy apple aphid, apply before leaves are curled. 
Do not apply wi~hin 1 day of har/est of apples and pears.

Apple Thinning - Many factors influence the degree of apple 
thinning obtained with Carbaryl 50W. These include tree age, 
variety, nutrition, previous crop, pruning, degree of .et, bloca, 
weather and use of other chencal thinners. When any of the.e 
favor reduced fruit set, caution should be observed in applying 
Carbaryl 50W so that excessive thinning and possible yield 
reduction will not occur. RecoDlJlended dosages refer to pounds of 
Carbaryl 50W per 100 gallons dilute spray. 
Concentration: Use 1/2 to 1 pound on easily-thinned varieties. 
Apply for full coverage. On hard-to-thin varieties, use 1 to 2 
pounds. 
Timing: Apply in one spray timed between 10 to 25 days after full 
bloom. 
varietal Response: Easily-thinned varieties include Cortland, 
Grimes, Jonathan, McIntosh, Orleans, Rome Beauty, Puritan, Red 
Delicious, Winesap, and Yellow Newton. Difficult-to-thin 
varieties include Baldwin, Ben Davis, Dutchess, Early McIntosh, 
Golden Delicious, Lady Apple, Northern Spy, Rhode Island 
Greening, Steele Red, Turley, Wealthy, Yellow Transparent, and 
York Imperial. . 
Citrus Fruits (such as-grapefruit, lemons, limes, oranges, 
tangelos, tangerines, citrus citron, kumquats and hybrids). 
Uee 2 pounds for California orangedog, citrus cutworm, fruittree 
leafroller, orange tortrix and western tussock moth. 
Use 1 1/2 to 2 pounds for black scale, brown soft scale, 
California red scale, citricola scale, citrus sow scale and 
yellow scale. 
Apply lower dosage early in the season or against light 
infestation and the higher dosage rate in the season or against 
heavy infestation and situations involving infested fruit. May be 
used with petroleum oil as used in co..an practice on citrus. 
Do not apply more than 40 pounds of Carbaryl 50W per acre per 
application. Do not apply less than 10 gallons of dilute spray 
mixture per mature tree. 
Do not apply within 5 days of harvest of these crops. 
Filbert - Use 2 pounds for filbert aphid, filbert leafroller and 
filbertwo~. Apply when leafroller eggs are hatching. Repeat on 
first appearance of adult filbert moths and again 3 to 4 weeks 
later. With dilute sprays, 400 gallons per acre is suggested.
