Reseal and retum the container to an authorized Helena Chemical Company refilling facility. If the container is not to be refilled, triple rinse (or equivalent). Then offer for recycling IX reconditioning, or puncture and dispose of in a sanitary landfill, or incineration, or if allowed by state and local .authorities, by buming. If bumed, stay out of smoke. DIMETHClATE 4 EC is a clear liquid. When added to water, it will disperse readily and will remain physically . stable with a minimum amount of agitation. Apply this product only as specified on this label. Application equipment: DIMETHOATE 4 EC can be applied b' any pressure sprayer that will give uniform distribution of the spray such as ground sprayers, aerial sprayers.or portable sprayers. Aerial Application: Automatic flagging devices should be used whenever feasible. If human flaggers are employed, they must wear the . protective clothing and respirator specified on this label. APPLICATION THROUGH IRRIGATION SYSTEMS- CHEMIGA TION Apply this product only through sprinkler, inCluding center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side (wheel) roll, !rave,ler, big gun, solid set, or hard move; flood (basin); furrow; border; or drip (trickle) irrigation systems. 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 nonuniform distribution of treated water. If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts. . 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. 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. Mix in clean supply tank the recommended amount of this product for acreage to be covered, and needed quantity of water. . This product should not be tank-mixed with other pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers unless prior use has . shown the. combination noninjurious Linder your conditions of use and provided chemigation is permitted on the label of products to be tanked-mixed. Follow precautionary statements and directions for all tank-mixed products. On all crops, use sufficient gallonage of water to obtain thorough and uniform coverage, but not cause runoff or excessive leaching. This will vary depending on equipment, pest problem and stage of crop growth. Application of more or less than optimal quantity of water may result in decreased chemical performance, crop injury or illegal pesticide residues. Meter this product into the irrigation water uniformly during the period of operation. Do not overlap application. Follow recommended label rates, application timing, and other directions and precautions for crop being treated. Continuous mild agitation of pesticide mixture may be . needed to assure a uniform application, particularly if the supply tank requires a number of hours to empty.

CHEMIGA nON SYSTEMS CONNECTED TO PUBLIC WATER SYSTEMS Note: This company does not encourage connecting chemigation systems to public water supplies. The folloWing infoiTnation is provided for users who have diligently considered all other application and water supply olltions before electing to make such a connection. Public wllter system means a system for the provision to the publi(; of piped water for human consumption if such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves all average of atleast 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, backflow 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 dischclrged into a ~servoir tank prior to pesticide introduction.

GENERAL INFORMATION This product is intended for use by the commercial grower or commercial applicator in conventional hydraulic sprayers, concentrate application equipment; ground applicators or airplane sprayers. This product is prohibited from use in or around any structure used as a residence or domestic dwelling, or on any articles or areas associated with such structures (including household contents, home garnens, and home greenhouses); and, from any use in or around public or private buildings or structures (including ~reational facilities, theaters, hotels, or other buildings used for public accommodation, or in any other commercial, industrial, or institutional building), or on any articles associated with such structures, including refuse areas, building contents and landscaping (but not including outdoon:ommercial ornamental tree and shrub production areas). When applying by ground equipment, use the recommended amount in sufficient water for thorough coverage: by aircraft, in 1 to 10 gallons of water unless otherwise specified. The rates of DIMETHOATE 4 EC are recommended on a per 100 gallons of dilute spray, except where indicated. Application rates applied by concentrate methods should equal the total amount of dimethoate applied per acre on the per 100 gallon basis except where the actual concentrate rates are specified. (If a dilute application is recommended at 1 pint per 100 gallons and it requires 400 gallons per acre for proper. coverage, the concentrate rate would equal 4 pints per acre). The optimum spray gallonage is dependent on tree size, density and growth stage. Typical spray gallonages . per acre range from, but are not limited to 100-600 gallons for dilute spray, 20-100 gallons for concentrate and 1-25 gallons for aerial. Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift of spray from areas treated. Repeat applications as necessary unless otherwise specified. Consult your state experiment station or state extension service for proper timing of applications. DIMETHOATE 4 EC is compatible in spray tank mixes with most insecticides, miticides, and fungicides, provided they are not alkaline in reaction. DIMETHOATE 4 EC has systemic and contact activity against a broad spectrum of piercing, sucking and chewing insects. For proper mixing, spray tank should be at least 3/4 filled with water before adding DIMETHOATE 4 EC. Mechanical agitation or ~irculation through pump bypass to tank is usually sufficient for maintaining a good dispersion. Spray tank mixtures of OtMETHOATE 4 EC with fertilizers that are alkaline should be applied

immediately. All Spray mixes should be made in accordance with the product that has the more restrictive label limitations and precautions. Dimethoilte may produce a distinctive odor during the spray operation, but under normal conditions this odor does not persist.
