GENERAL DIRECTIONS 
• 
SPRAY PREPARATION: TO ASSURE A UNIFORM PRODUCT, AGITATE OR SHA~E ALL CONTAINERS OF THIS 
PRODUCT PRIOR TO USE. Remove oil. rust, sc~le. pesticide residues and other foreign matter from sprayer and 
strainer. Flush with clean water. Use 50 mesh screens or equivalent slotted strainers in spray system, To preparo 
for spraying. till tank to approximately 1/2 the needed volume of water. Add the required amount of this 
insecticide and mix thoroughly by mechanical or hydraulic agitation. Finish filling tank with water to desired 
volume and thoroughly mix. Do not store spray mixture for prolonged periods. If tank mixes are to be used. 
Thiodicarb 3.2 must be fully disJ1ersed in water first. followed by the addition of the intended tank·mix material. 
COMPATIBILITY: Thiodicarb 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 
know, Therefore, It is essential that before using Thiodicarb 3.2 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. THIS PRODUCT IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH 
NON·EMULSIFIED VEGETABLE OR CROP OIL DILUENTS. FOR BEST RESULTS, SPRAY MIXTURES SHOULD BE 
USED IMMEDIATELY AFTER MIXING WITH ADEQUATE AGITATION. 
NOTE: Thiodicarb Insecticide is hydrolytically sensitive to degradation of active ingredient by strong acids, strong 
bases, and certain heavy mfltal oxidas and salts of certain fungicides. Degradation can cause reduced 
effectivenoss, plant phytotoxicity and increased handling hazards, DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT IN SPRAY 
MIXTUReS WITH THE ABOVE TYPE OF PRODUCTS INCLUDING MIXTURES WITH Maneb, Manc02cb (except 
Manzate 200 and Dithan~ M-45 wettable powdnrs where mixtures arc used immediately after mixing), Copper 
COllnt N-B, and Bordeaux mixture. DO NOT ADD Thiodicarb 3.2 TO WATER WITH pH VALUES BELOW 3.0 OR 
ABOVE B.S. If necossary, water should be buffered within this range before adding Thiodicarb 3.2. 
DIRECTIONS FOR AERIAL OR GROUND SPRAY APPLICATION 
APPLICATION TIMING: Begin applictltion ,"'vhen insect populations rerlch recognized economic threshold levels. 
Consult tho Cooperative Extension Service. professional consultants or other qualified authorities to determine 
appropriate threshold levels for treatment in your area. 
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS: Apply a minimum finished spray volume of 2 gallons per acre by air or 5 gallons 
per acre by ground unless otherwise directed under crop srecific directions. Under extreme pest populations and 
dense foliage. use a minimum spray vohlme of 5 gallons per acre by air and a minimum spray volume of 10 galion!> 
per acre by ground. For best results, it i!> important to obtain thorough and uniform spray coverage of the plant, To 
maintain control repeat application as needed within dO!>lJge and time limits listed for each crop uner "'use 
Restrictions..... Use higher dosage rates for heavy infestation!>, large larvae. or dp.nse roliage. The specific length of 
residual control depends on cnvironmp.ntal factors, plant growth, dosage rate, and degree of i'1sect infestation, 
Although Thiodicarb 3.2 has some contact activity. larvae not feeding on treated foliage will not be controlled. 
When banding. determine the amount of chemical to use per acre by dividing the band width by the row width and 
multiplying by the appropriMc broadcast rate . 
To clean the sprayer after use, drain and flush with water. Use rinsings on crop according to label instructions or 
dispose of in an approved manner (See STORAGE AND DISPOSAL).

the appropriate dosage per acre recommended on this label of THIODICARB 3.2 per 1 to 4 gallons of water are 
recommended). Then set sprinkler to deliver 0.1 to 0.3 inch of water per acre. Start sprinkler and uniformly inject 
the suspension of THIODICARB 3.2 into the irrigation water line so as to deliver the desired rate per aere. The 
suspension of THIODICARB 3.2 should be injected with a positive displacement PlIrt!P into the main line ahead of a 
right angle turn to insure adequate mixing. If you should have any other quostions aboLit calibration, you should 
contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts. 
NOTE: When treatment with Thiodicarb 3.2 has been compfetod, further field irrigation over the troateri area 
should be avoided for 24 to 48 hours to prevent washing ttle chemical off the crop. 
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS FOR APPLICATIONS THROUGH SPRINKLER IRRIGATION SYSTEMS 
Maintain 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 solution per 
unit time. The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relier valve, and low pressure drain 
appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow. The pesticide 
injoctlon pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow or fluid back 
toward the injeotion 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 
provent fluid from being withdra'Nn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or 
manually shutdown. 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 pestlcido distribution Is adversely affected. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive 
displacement injection pump (fl.g .• diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructerl 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 intenr!ed for treatment. 
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift. when system connection or fittings leak, whon nozzles do not provide 
unirorm distribution or when lines containing the product must be dismAntled and drained. 
Crop Injury, lack of effectiveness, or iIIogal pesticide residues in the crop may (esult from non-uniform distribution 
of treated water. 
Allow sufficient time for pesticide to be rlUShArl through all lines and All nozzles before turning off irrigation water. 
A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation shall shut the system down 
and make necessary adjustments should the need arise. 
Do not connect an irrigation syr.tem (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water 
system unless the label· prescribed safety devicos for puhlic water supplies are in place. 
RECOMMENDEO USES FOR BROCCOLI, CABBAGE AND CAULIFLOWER

RECOMMENDED USES FOR COTTON 
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT IIPMI USE OF THIS PRODUCT: Thiodicarb 3.2 has both contact and residual 
ovicidal activity which can be crrcctively utilized in (PM programs (See ovicide section). Thiodicarb 3.2 !!sed as a 
ovicide or a larvicide has been shown to Icave substantial porulations of beneficial insects and spiders after use. 
The lower rates allow for maximum benaficial survival and faster rebound of beneficial pOr'lulations. Larvicidal and 
ovicidal control coupled with mtention of beneficial insects and spiders can offer significant benefits to those 
producers lItilizing integrated pest control programs. 
SPRAY VOLUME FOR COTTON: Thiodicarb 3.2 should be applied in a minimum finished spray volume of 2 gallons 
per acre by aircraft and 5 gallons per acre by ground equirment. Under extreme pest populations or dense foliago.

SPECIFIC DIRECTIONS 
Whorl Feeders: Spray as needed. As insect populations increase andlor whon new plant growth is rapid, the spray 
interval should be shorter. For best rosults, usn spray volumes of 15 gallons or more per acre applied by ground 
eqlJinment using solid or hollow cone nozzles directed into the plant whorl. 
Insects Attacking Silks and E.ars: Apply at 1 to 7 day intervrd~ starting when silks first appear and continuing until 
harvest, if necessary. As insect populCltions increase and/or silk growth is rapid, the spray interval ::;hOLlId be 
shorter. Use the higher dosage rate and apply at 1 to 2 day interval~ following periods of heavy moth flights. 
Follow local recommr.ndations for proper timing. 
Foliage Feeders: Use at least 2 gallons finished spray volume per acre by air or 10 gallons per acre by ground.

SPECIFIC DIRECTIONS 
Postemergence Rescue Treatments: For best results, apply as a broadcast spray when cutworms are actively 
fp.eding. If cutworms are feeding below the around, control will be more difficult. Light cultivation with ~ r')tpr.' 
hoc before spraying may enhance control. If I,mndino, usc a minimum width of 10 inches over the row; When 
banding, determine the amount of chemical to use per acre, by dividing the band width by the row wij1'd, .Md 
multiplying by the aprropriate broadcast rate. .
