COMPATIBILITY / TANK MIXING
ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide], when diluted with an equal volume of water, is physically compatible with a wide range of commonly used
spray products, but the full range of compatibilities under local conditions is not known. Therefore, it is essential that before using ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail
70 WSP Insecticide] in any tank mixture the compatibility of the mixture be established. Add a small amount of this product to an equal volume of water in a small container and then add
the other pesticide or spray product and mix thoroughly. DO NOT USE MIXTURES THAT CURDLE, PRECIPITATE, OR GREASE. FOR BEST RESULTS, USE SPRAY MIXTURES
IMMEDIATELY AFTER MIXING WITH ADEQUATE AGITATION. It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products in a tank mix are registered for the intended use. Users
must follow the most restrictive directions and precautionary language of the products of the mixture (for example, first aid from one product, spray drift management from another).
Special Instructions for Tank Mixing ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide
When tank mixing ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] with other products, introduce the products into the tank in the following order: (1) water
soluble packets (2) wettable powders (such as ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide) (3) water dispersable granules (4) flowable liquids (5) emulsifiable concentrates and (6) adjuvants and/or oils
(do not use stickers). Always allow each product to fully disperse before adding the next product.
Mixing and Application Instructions for ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide
ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide is a dry powder formulation that readily disperses in water to form a spray, which may be applied by ground or air.
1. Plan ahead. Prepare only enough spray mixture as can be applied on the day of mixing.
2. Fill tank ¼ - ½ full with the required amount of total spray volume of water.
3. Begin agitation and add product. The jug should be given a good hard shake to fluff the product before measuring. When pouring into the measuring cone, do not tamp down. The cone
is calibrated for the fluffed product.
4. Continue to fill tank while directing a stream of water onto any floating product.
5. Allow mixing in tank for 2 minutes after filling or until thoroughly mixed before applying. 6. Maintain continuous agitation during mixing and application to assure uniform suspension. If
mixture sits without agitation for extended periods, agitate the mixture for at least 10 minutes before use.
7. Equip spray system with a 50-mesh inline filter, which will protect nozzles that are typically used. Nozzles may also be equipped with 50-mesh nozzle filters or 25 to 50 mesh
(equivalent) slotted nozzle filters.
8. ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide is unstable in water pH below 4 and above 9. If necessary, buffer water to obtain optimum pH range.
[OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide]
Special Instructions for Tank Mixing ASSAIL WSP Insecticide. When tank mixing ASSAIL WSP Insecticide with other products, introduce the products into the tank in the following
order: (1) water soluble packets (such as ASSAIL WSP Insecticide), (2) wettable powders, (3) water dispersible granules, (4) flowable liquids, (5) emulsifiable concentrates, and (6)
adjuvants and/or oils. Always allow each product to fully disperse before adding the next product. Products containing boron will interfere with film solubility of the water-soluble packets.
If boron products are added to the spray tank, add the ASSAIL WSP Insecticide soluble packets first, making sure they are completely dissolved before adding any boron products.
Instructions for Using Water Soluble Packages Directly into Spray tanks:
Water Soluble Packages (WSPs) are designed to dissolve in water. Agitation may be used, if necessary, to help dissolve the WSP. Failure to follow handling and mixing instructions can
increase your exposure to the pesticide products in WSPs. WSPs, when used properly, qualify as a closed mixing/loading system under the Agricultural Worker Protection Standard [40
CFR 170.607(d)].
Handling Instructions
Follow these steps when handling pesticide products in WSPs.
1. Mix in spray tank only.
2. Handle WSP(s) in a manner that protects package from breakage and/or unintended release of contents. If package is broken, put on PPE required for clean-up and then continue with
mixing instructions.
3. Keep the WSP(s) in outer packaging until just before use.
4. Keep the WSP dry prior to adding to the spray tank.
5. Handle with dry gloves and according to the label instructions for PPE.
6. Keep WSP intact. Do not cut or puncture WSP.
7. Reseal the WSP outer packaging to protect any unused WSP(s).
Mixing Instructions
Follow the steps below when mixing this product, including if tank mixed with other pesticide products. If being tank mixed, the mixing directions 1 through 9 below take precedence over
the mixing directions of the other tank mix products. WSPs may, in some cases, be mixed with other pesticide products so long as the directions for use of all mixed products do not
conflict. Do not tank mix this product with products that prohibit tank mixing or have conflicting mixing directions.
1. If a basket or strainer is present in the tank hatch, remove prior to adding the WSP to the tank.
2. Fill tank with water to approximately one-third to one-half of the desired final volume of spray.
3. Stop adding water and stop any agitation.

4. Place intact/unopened WSP(s) into the tank.
5. Do not spray water from a hose or fill pipe to break or dissolve the WSP(s).
6. Start mechanical and recirculation agitation from the bottom of tank without using any overhead recirculation, if possible. If overhead recirculation cannot be turned off, close the hatch
before starting agitation.
7. Dissolving the WSP(s) may take up to 5 minutes or longer, depending on water temperature, water hardness and intensity of agitation.
8. Stop agitation before tank lid is opened.
9. Open the lid to the tank, exercising caution to avoid contact with dusts or spray mix, to verify that the WSPs have fully dissolved and the contents have been thoroughly mixed into the
solution.
10. Do not add other allowed products or complete filling the tank until the bags have fully dissolved and pesticide is thoroughly mixed.
11. Once the WSP have fully dissolved and any other products have been added to the tank, resume filling the tank with water to the desired level, close the tank lid, and resume agitation.
12. Use the spray solution when mixing is complete.
13. Maintain agitation of the diluted pesticide mix during transport and application.
14. It is unlawful to use any registered pesticide, including WSPs, in a manner inconsistent with its label.
NOTE:
• Plan ahead. Prepare only enough spray mixture as can be applied on the day of mixing
• Add buffering agent if required
• Equip spray system with a 50-mesh inline filter, which will protect nozzles that are typically used. Nozzles may also be equipped with 50-mesh nozzle filters or 25 to 50 mesh (equivalent)
slotted nozzle filters.
• ASSAIL 70 WSP Insecticide is unstable in water pH below 4 and above 9. If necessary, buffer water to obtain optimum pH range.
DIRECTIONS FOR CHEMIGATION
Instructions
For chemigation use only on cranberries and on potatoes after foliage has emerged and only through overhead sprinkler irrigation systems.
Apply this product only through overhead sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot, lateral move, side (wheel) roll, solid set, or hand move irrigation systems after potato foliage
has emerged. Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform
distribution of treated water. If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts. 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.
The overhead sprinkler chemigation 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 pump. 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 stops. The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional
pressure switch which will stop the water pump motor 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 for materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being
fitted with a system interlock.
Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public
water systems are in place. 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) of 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 flow outlet
end of the fill pipe and the 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.
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
Application Instructions
Observe the requirements in the System Requirements section above. Apply ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] only through systems
containing anti-siphon and check valves designed to prevent water source contamination or overflow of the mix tank and containing interlocking controls between the metering device and
the water pump to insure simultaneous shut-off. Maintain a gentle continuous agitation in mix tank during mixing and application to assure a uniform suspension. Greater accuracy in
calibration and distribution will be achieved by injecting a larger volume of a more dilute suspension per unit time. Application of more than recommended quantities of irrigation water
per acre may result in decreased product performance. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift, when system connections or fittings leak, when nozzles do not provide uniform
distribution or when lines containing the product cannot be flushed and must be dismantled and drained. In a center pivot system, block the nozzle set nearest the well/pivot/injection unit
to prevent spray being applied to this area. Use of end guns which deliver uneven distribution of water is not recommended. Wh ere sprinkler distribution patterns do not overlap
sufficiently, unacceptable insect control may result. Allow sufficient time for pesticide to be flushed through all lines and all nozzles before turning off irrigation water. ASSAIL 70 WP
Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] may be applied in conjunction with chemically neutral liquid fertilizers. Application in conjunction with highly alkaline fertilizers,
such as aqueous ammonia, may cause a degradation of the pesticide, resulting in reduced performance and should be avoided.
Spray Preparation
Remove scale, pesticide residues, and other foreign matter from the chemical tank and entire injector system. Flush with clean water. Prepare a solution of ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide
[OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] in a mix tank. Fill the tank with ½ or ¾ the desired amount of water. Start mechanical or hydraulic agitation. Slowly add the required
amount of ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] and then the remaining volume of water.
Clean copy DRAFT 6-8-21

Sprinkler Irrigation
Observe all System Requirements and Application Instructions above. Set sprinkler system to deliver a maximum of 0.2 inch of water per acre. Volumes of water higher than this may
reduce efficacy. Start sprinkler and then uniformly inject the solution of ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide into the irrigation water line so as to deliver the desired rate per acre. The solution of
ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] should be injected with a positive displacement pump into the main line ahead of a right angle turn to insure
adequate mixing. Retention of ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] on foliage is necessary for optimum activity. Do not apply when wind speed
favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. Where sprinkler distributed patterns do not overlap sufficiently, unacceptable insect control may result.
DIRECTIONS FOR AERIAL OR GROUND SPRAY APPLICATION
APPLICATION TIMING
Begin application when insect populations reach recognized economic threshold levels. Consult the Cooperative Extension Service, Professional consultants or other qualified authorities
to determine appropriate threshold levels for treatment in your area.
INFORMATION
ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide is a 70% wettable powder for the control of many sucking and chewing insects on the crops listed in this label. [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide
is a 70% wettable powder for the control of many sucking and chewing insects on the crops listed in this label.] The active ingr edient in ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP:
Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] is acetamiprid, a neonicotinoid insecticide that controls target insects through contact and ingestion. ASSAIL 70WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70
WSP Insecticide] is rapidly absorbed by the plant tissue and quickly moves via systemic translaminar activity to protect the entire leaf. However, thorough spray coverage is essential for
optimal performance. ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] is rain-fast once the spray solution has dried.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
ROW CROPS
Apply a minimum finished spray volume of 5 gallons per acre by air or 15 gallons per acre by ground unless otherwise directed under crop specific directions. For best results, it is
important to obtain thorough and uniform spray coverage of the plant. For aerial application, select nozzles and pressure that deliver MEDIUM spray droplets as indicated in nozzle
manufacturers catalogs and in accordance with ASABE Standard S-572. The use of spray adjuvants, such as high quality non-ionic or silicone surfactants or methylated seed oils is
recommended to enhance coverage and plant uptake and may improve pest control in certain crops. Please see specific crop use directions. The addition of an adjuvant is recommended
for all applications made to vegetables (except legumes) and to cotton when controlling whiteflies. The use of stickers is not recommended. Some adjuvants can cause adverse effects,
such as spotting or burn to fruit or foliage. Select an adjuvant that will be safe for the target crop. Follow adjuvant use dir ections. Consult your local Extension Service, Crop Advisor or
Nippon Soda Co., Ltd. representative for additional information. Use higher dosage rates for heavy infestations or dense foliage. The specific length of residual control depends on
environmental factors, plant growth, dosage rate, and degree of insect infestation. For foliar banded applications, determine the amount of chemical to use per acre by dividing the band
width by the row width and multiplying by the appropriate broadcast rate.
To clean the sprayer after use, drain and flush with water. Use rinsate on crop according to label instructions or dispose of in an approved manner (See STORAGE AND DISPOSAL).
ORCHARD CROPS
To achieve optimum pest control, it is important to obtain thorough and uniform spray coverage. Choose a finished spray volume appropriate for the size of tree or vine and amount of
foliage which will provide thorough coverage throughout the canopy. For certain pests, also follow recommendations listed under crop specific directions. For aerial application, select
nozzles and pressure that deliver MEDIUM spray droplets as indicated in nozzle manufacturers catalogs and in accordance with ASAE Standard S-572. Aerial applications may not
provide as thorough coverage as ground applications.
The use of spray adjuvants, such as high quality non-ionic surfactants, methylated seed or horticultural oils is recommended to enhance coverage and plant uptake and may improve pest
control. The addition of an adjuvant is recommended for all applicat ions to pome fruit when controlling codling moth, oriental fruit moth, and San Jose scale. The use of stickers is not
recommended. Some adjuvants can cause adverse effects, such as s potting or burn to fruit or foliage. Select an adjuvant that wi ll be safe to the target crop. Follow adjuvant use
directions. Consult your local Extension Service, Crop Advisor or Nippon Soda representative for additional information.
Use higher dosage rates within the listed rate range for heavy infestations or dense foliage. The specific length of residual control depends on environmental factors, plant growth, dosage
rate, and degree of insect infestation.
To clean the sprayer after use, drain and flush with water. Use rinsate on crop according to label instructions or dispose of in an approved manner (See STORAGE AND DISPOSAL).

Acetamiprid is the active ingredient in ASSAIL 70WP Insecticide[OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide]. It is a member of a class of chemicals known as neonicotinoids
and within the mode of action Group 4A. Rotating ASSAIL 7OWP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] with insecticides with a different mode of action
(other than Group 4A insecticides) may delay or prevent development of resistance and cross-resistance to ASSAIL and other Group 4A insecticides. Avoid making more than
two (2) consecutive applications of ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] before rotating to an alternative mode of action insecticide. Foliar
applications of ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide[OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] should be avoided on crops treated with a Group 4A seed treatment or soil-applied
insecticide until a foliar application of a non-Group 4A insecticide (insecticide with a different mode of action) has been applied between these applications. The use of
ASSAIL 70WP Insecticide [OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] should conform to the resistance management guidelines established in your area. Consult your
agricultural advisor, PCA, university or extension personnel for recommended pest and resistance management practices for your area. Use recommended IPM practices in
your pest management system. Use of rates below the minimum rate listed for each particular insect pest may enhance the development of resistance and should be
avoided.

To prevent development of insect resistance, do not apply ASSAIL 70 WP Insecticide[OR where on WSP: Assail 70 WSP Insecticide] to crops listed on this label when grown in
a greenhouse.
SPRAY DRIFT
Avoid spray drift. Do not apply when weather conditions may cause drift. Do not allow this product to drift on to non-target areas. To avoid spray drift, DO NOT apply aerially when wind
speed
is greater than 10 mph or during periods of temperature inversions. For aerial application, select nozzles and pressure that deliver MEDIUM spray droplets as indicated in nozzle
manufacturers
catalogs and in accordance with ASAE Standard S-572. AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT AT THE APPLICATION SITE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR
. Do not cultivate or
plant crops within 10 feet of aquatic areas as to allow growth of a vegetative filter strip
The interaction of many equipment and weather related factors determines the potential for spray drift. The applicator is responsible for considering all of these factors when making
decisions.
The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target movement from aerial applications to agricultural crops. These requirements do not apply to forestry
applications, public health uses or to applications using dry formulations. 1. The distance of the outer most nozzles on the boom must not exceed 3/4 the length of the wingspan or rotor.
2. Use the largest droplet size consistent with good pest control. Small droplets are more prone to spray drift and can be minim ized by appropriate nozzle selection, by orienting nozzles
away from the airstream as much as possible, and by avoiding excessive spray boom pressure.
Where states have more stringent regulations, they should be observed.
The applicator should be familiar with and take into account the information covered in the Aerial Drift Reduction Advisory below:
AERIAL DRIFT REDUCTION ADVISORY
[This section is advisory in nature and does not supersede the mandatory label requirements].
INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE
The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply MEDIUM droplets. The best drift management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that provide sufficient coverage and
control.
Applying larger droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly, or under unfavorable environmental conditions (See Wind, Temperature and
Humidity, and Temperature Inversions).
CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE
Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets.
Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturers recommended pressures. For many nozzle types lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher flow rates are needed,
use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure.
Number of nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage.
Nozzle Orientation Small droplets are more prone to spray drift and can be minimized by several factors including orienting nozzles away from the airstream. Orienting nozzles so that
the spray is released parallel to the airstream produces larger droplets than other orientations. Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential.
Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider
using low-drift nozzles. Solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift.
BOOM LENGTH
For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than 3/4 of the wingspan or rotor length may further reduce drift without reducing swath width.
APPLICATION HEIGHT
Applications should not be made at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the target plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. Making applications at the lowest
height that is safe reduces exposure of droplets to evaporation and wind.
SWATH ADJUSTMENT
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applicator should compensate for this
displacement by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase, with increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.).
WIND
Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 - 10 mph. However, many factors, including droplet size and equipment type determine drift potential at any given speed. Application
should be avoided below 2 mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiar with local
wind patterns and how they affect spray drift.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions are
both hot and dry.
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
Applications should not occur during a temperature inversion because drift potential is high. Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets to
remain in a concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light variable winds common during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by
increasing temperatures with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often continue into the morning.
Their presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, inversions can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke
generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates
indicates good vertical air mixing.
SENSITIVE AREAS
The pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species,
non-target crops) is minimal (e.g. when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas).

present and its susceptibility, use
the higher rates within the listed
rate range. Use the higher rates
within the listed rate range for
Black Pecan Aphid.
On large mature trees use of the
higher rate within the listed rate
range may be necessary for
adequate control at the top of the
trees. Use of an appropriate
adjuvant will improve coverage
and control.
Begin applications when treatment
thresholds have been reached.
Thorough coverage is important to
obtain optimum control.
Complete sprays (every row) are
recommended.
Use of pheromone traps in conjunction
with degree days are good indicators
that can be used to determine spray
timings.

Use the higher rates within the
listed rate range for extended
control and on tall, mature trees
with dense foliage.
For control of Oriental Fruit Moth
(OFM) and Peach Twig Borer
(PTB), make a delayed dormant
application with oil prior to bud
break. For Codling Moth, OFM,
and PTB, make in-season
applications at moth flights using
appropriate degree day models.
The addition of horticultural oil is
recommended for improved
performance. Consult local
recommendations regarding the
use of oil.
For best results against San Jose
