  1 May require repeat applications.

2 Labeled rate provides top growth suppression only.

3 For improved root kill or woody species such as mesquite and eastern persimmon, spray

4 pints of Range Star® XLT per acre each year for 3 consecutive years. For increased control of weeds such as blackberry and dewberry, Range Star® XLT may be tank mixed with Ally® herbicide (0.1-0.2 ounces per acre), if labeled for the use site. 4 A second application may be required the following growing season under dense populations.

5 Not for use in California.

6 Treat with 4 pints of Range Star® XLT per acre after full leaf but before leaves develop a heavy cuticle (waxy covering) in periods of extreme heat or drought stress.

Use of this product in certain portions of California, Oregon and Washington is subject to the January 22, 2004 Order for injunctive relief in Washington Toxics Coalition, et al. v.

Safety & Health

Precautionary Statements

Harmful if swallowed. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.

Personal Protective Eqiupment

All mixers, loaders, and applicators and other handlers must wear:

  • Long-sleeved shirt and long pants,
  • Chemical-resistant gloves such as butyl rubber, natural rubber, neoprene rubber or nitrile rubber (except for applicators using groundboom equipment, pilots and flaggers)
  • Shoes plus socks, and
  • Protective eyewear (goggles or face shield).

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 no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.

User Safety Recommendations

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 hanaling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing.
Environmental Hazards

This pesticide is toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate. Apply this product only as directed on label. This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. The use of this chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in groundwater contamination. Application around a cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking water or groundwater. Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4-D have been associated with mixing/loading and disposal sites. Caution must be exercised when handling 2,4-D pesticides at such sites to prevent contamination of groundwater supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing or transferring this pesticide will reduce the probability of spills. Placement of the mixing/loading equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent groundwater contamination.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Disposal

Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage or disposal.

PESTICIDE STORAGE: Store in original container in a well-ventilated area separately from fertilizer, feed and foodstuffs. Avoid crosscontamination with other pesticides. Spillage or leakage should be contained and absorbed with clay granules, sawdust, or equivalent material for disposal.

PESTICIDE DISPOSAL: Pesticide wastes are toxic. Triple rinse pesticide from containers and use rinsates in the pesticide application. Improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixture, or rinsate, is a violation of Federal Law and may contaminate groundwater. If these wastes cannot be disposed of by use according to label instructions, contact your State Pesticide or Environmental Control Agency, or the Hazardous Waste representative at the nearest EPA Regional Office for guidance.
