RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS For resistance management, Actellic 5E Insecticide contains a Group 1 insecticide/acaricides. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to Actellic 5E Insecticide and other Group 1 insecticides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides/acaricides are used repeatedly in the same fields and sites. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed.
To delay insecticide/acaricide resistance take the following steps: • Rotate the use of Actellic 5E Insecticide or other Group 1 insecticides/acaricides within a growing season, or among growing seasons, with different groups that control the same pests. • Use tank mixtures with insecticides/acaricides from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Do not rely on the same mixture repeatedly for the same pest population. Consider any known cross-resistance issues (for the targeted pests) between the individual components of a mixture.
4 In addition, consider the following • Individual insecticides selected for use in mixtures should be highly effective and be applied at the rates at which they are individually registered for use against the target species. • Mixtures with components having the same IRAC mode of action classification are not recommended for insect resistance management. • When using mixtures, consider any known cross-resistance issues between the individual components for the targeted pest(s). • Mixtures become less effective if resistance is already developing to one or both active ingredients, but they may still provide pest management benefits. • The insect resistance management benefits of an insecticide mixture are greatest if the two components have similar periods of residual insecticidal activity. Mixtures of insecticides with unequal periods of residual insecticide activity may offer an insect resistance management benefit only for the period where both insecticides are active. • Adopt an integrated pest management program for insecticide/acaricides use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, crop rotation, record keeping, and which considers cultural, biological and other chemical control practices. Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of survival suggests the presence of resistance, consult with your local university specialist or certified pest control advisor. • Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for any additional pesticide resistance- management and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and pest problems in your area. • For further information or to report suspected resistance contact your Winfield Solutions, LLC representative.
APPLICATION DIRECTIONS Do not make more than one application per crop. Only treat corn or grain sorghum which has not previously been treated with any pirimiphos-methyl containing product. Treatment of seed is only allowed off-farm (for example, in a facility where seed is bagged).
The best practice to protect stored corn (field and pop) and grain sorghum from insect infestation is to use an admixture treatment of Actellic 5E Insecticide.
Actellic 5E Insecticide is only to be used as an admixture treatment, as grain or seed enters storage or export containers. It is not for use as a top-dressing treatment nor to treat empty storage bins or export containers.
ADMIXTURE TREATMENT Apply spray solution uniformly with suitable application equipment as grain enters storage or export containers. Select nozzle size and operating pressure to adjust the application rate with flow of grain. Prepare desired dilution of Actellic 5E Insecticide in spray tank and mix well. Make sure spray solution stays mixed, especially in large holding tanks. Apply the spray solution as a coarse, uniform low pressure spray in order to minimize drift. Shield nozzle if necessary. Apply the specified amount of Actellic 5E Insecticide in 5 gallons of water or 3-5 gallons of at least twice refined soybean oil to each 30 tons (60,000 pounds) of grain according to the following rates.

• Grains treated with Actellic 5E Insecticide at rates indicated on this label may be used immediately for any food or feed purpose. • Calibrate spray equipment and periodically check calibration to ensure proper spray rates.
PRECAUTIONS: • Avoid severely dusty application sites. • When drying grain, apply Actellic 5E Insecticide after the grain has cooled. • Always start with clean, insect free storage bins and containers that have been treated with a protectant of a different mode of action and labeled for that use.
USE RESTRICTIONS: • Do not store diluted Actellic 5E Insecticide in spray tank more than 48 hours before use. • Do not make more than one application per crop. Only use on treated corn (field and pop) or sorghum which has not previously been treated with any pirimiphos-methyl containing product. • Seed applications of Actellic 5E Insecticide are restricted to bulk or bagged seed corn (field and pop) and sorghum grain. • Not for use to control soil insects. • Not to be used as a top-dressing treatment. • Only to be used as grain or seed enters storage or export containers, as an admixture treatment. • Not to be used to treat empty storage bins. • Do not enter treated areas or have contact with treated grain or seed until sprays have dried.
