Azomar® provides immediate and long-lasting residual control from sucking and chewing insects on a broad range of crops. The active ingredient works on contact and through ingestion to control harmful insects at all life stages. Azomar® rapidly absorbs into the plant tissue and immediately moves via systemic and translaminar activity, providing protection to the entire leaf. Azomar® can be used alone or makes an excellent tank-mix partner to be used as part of a resistance management program. Once dry, Azomar® remains effective following rain or irrigation.

Application Information

Apply Azomar® when treatment thresholds for insect populations are reached. Product quickly dissolves in water to form a spray mixture, to be applied via ground or air. For optimal control, calibrate and adjust equipment to create uniform and thorough spray coverage of the crop. Azomar® can be used alone or utilized in IPM programs.

Instructions

Mixing Instructions

When tank mixing Azomar® with other products, add them in the following sequence:

  • Prepare only the amount of spray mixture needed for that day’s application.
  • Fill the tank ¼ - ½ full with the total amount of water to be used.
  • Start agitation in the tank and add the required amount of Azomar®. Shake the jug to fluff the product prior to measuring. Refrain from tamping down the product when using the measuring cone because the cone is calibrated to the fluffed product.
  • Direct a stream of water onto any floating product as the tank is being filled to assist in mixing.
  • Mix in tank for two minutes or until a thorough mixture is achieved prior to applying.
  • Be sure to maintain constant agitation in the solution tank before and during the application to assure an even suspension. Agitate the mixture before use for ten minutes if the solution sits stationary for an extended period of time.
  • Equip the spray system with a 50-mesh in-line filter. This will protect typically-used nozzles. Spray nozzles may also be equipped with nozzle filters (50-mesh) or slotted nozzle filters (25- to 50-mesh equivalent). 8. Buffer water to attain an optimal pH range to aid stability in water with a low pH (below 4) or high pH (above 9).

Special Instructions for tank mixing

When tank mixing Azomar® with other products, add them in the following sequence:

  • Water soluble packets
  • Wettable powders (Azomar® Insecticide)
  • Water dispersible granules
  • Flowing liquids
  • Emulsifiable concentrates
  • Adjuvants and/or oils (do not use stickers) Following the addition of each product above, be sure to let full dispersion occur before adding the next product in the sequence. Boron containing products will negatively affect the film solubility of water soluble packets. If using boron products, add the soluble packets first and wait until they are dissolved before adding any boron products.

Compatibility / Tank Mixing

Azomar® is compatible with a variety of common spray products. To ensure the compatibility of this product with other spray products, conduct a jar test prior to tank mixing. Conduct a jar test with equal parts water and this product and mix thoroughly with added spray product or other pesticide. Use spray mixtures directly after mixing and with sufficient agitation. Do NOT use mixtures that curdle, grease, or precipitate. It is the pesticide user’s 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 in the mixture.

Safety & Health

Precautionary Statements

Hazards To Humans And Domestic Animals

  • Caution - Harmful if swallowed or absorbed through skin. Causes moderate eye irritation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Harmful if inhaled. Avoid breathing vapors or spray mist.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

  • Mixers, loaders, applicators, and other handlers must wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, shoes plus socks, protective eyewear, chemical resistant gloves made out of the following: waterproof material nitrile rubber ≥ 14 mils, neoprene rubber ≥ 14 mils, barrier laminate ≥ 14 mils, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) ≥ 14 mils, or viton ≥ 14 mils and chemical resistant headgear for overhead exposure. Discard clothing and other absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contaminated with this product’s concentrate. Do not reuse them. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If there are no such instructions for washables, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240 (d)(4-6)], the handler PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.

User Safety Recommendations

  1. Users should:
  • Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet.
  • Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
  • Remove PPE immediately after handling this product; wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing.

Physical Or Chemical Hazards

  • Do not mix or allow coming in contact with oxidizing agent. Hazardous chemical reaction may occur.

Environmental Hazards

  • This product is toxic to birds and aquatic invertebrates. This product is toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment. Do not apply this product while bees are foraging in the treatment area. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate. Do not contaminate water used for irrigation or domestic purposes.
  • Ground Water Advisory This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in ground water. This chemical may leach into ground water if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
  • Surface Water Advisory This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having high potential for reaching surface water via runoff for several months or more after application. Avoid accidental or intentional application of this product to ditches, swales, drainage ways or impervious surfaces such as driveways. Runoff of this product to surface water will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall is forecasted to occur within 48 hours.

Pour rinsate into application equipment or a mix tank or store rinsate for later use or disposal. Drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Repeat this procedure two more times. Then offer for recycling if available or puncture and dispose of in a sanitary landfill, or by incineration.
  2. Lined fiber drum: Nonrefillable container. Do not reuse or refill this container. Completely empty liner by shaking and tapping sides and bottom to loosen clinging particles. Then offer for recycling if available or dispose of empty bag in a sanitary landfill or by incineration.
