Directions for USe

It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation. Do not apply by ground equipment within 25 feet of lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, marshes or natural ponds, estuaries and commercial fish farm ponds (please see Special Restriction in the State of New York in the Application Recommendations section of this label). When treating tall trees (> 15 feet) from the ground with high pressure sprays or during any application with air assisted equipment (mist blower) do not apply within 150 feet of aquatic areas.

Do not apply this product through any kind of irrigation system. Do not apply by air. Apply with ground equipment only. Do not apply when wind direction favors downwind drift towards nearby water bodies. Do not apply when wind velocity exceeds 10 mph. Avoid application when wind gusts approach 10 mph. Do not apply when a temperature inversion exists. Apply using the largest nozzle size compatible with adequate coverage. Do not apply if rain is expected within 12 hours (or whatever time is necessary for the spray to dry). Do not water treated area to the point of run-off. Do not make applications during rain. Application is prohibited directly into sewers or drains, or to any area like a gutter where drainage to sewers, storm drains, water bodies, or aquatic habitat can occur. Do not allow the product to enter any drain during or after application. Do not apply directly to impervious horizontal surfaces such as sidewalks, driveways, and patios except as a spot or crack and crevice treatment. During application, do not allow pesticide to enter or run off into storm drains, drainage ditches, gutters or surface waters. All outdoor applications, if permitted elsewhere on this label, must be limited to spot or crack-and-crevice treatments only, except for the following permitted uses, if allowed elsewhere on this label: 1. Applications to soil or vegetation, as listed on this label, around structures; 2. Applications to lawns, turf, and other vegetation, as listed on this label; 3. Applications to the side of a building, up to a maximum height of 3 feet above grade; 4. Applications to underside of eaves, soffits, doors, or windows permanently protected from rainfall by a covering, overhang, awning, or other structure; 5. Applications around potential pest entry points into buildings, when limited to a surface band not to exceed one inch in width; 6. Applications made through the use of a coarse, low pressure spray to only those portions of surfaces that are directly above bare soil, lawn, turf, mulch or other vegetation, as listed on this label, and not over an impervious surface, drainage or other condition that could result in runoff into storm drains, drainage ditches, gutters, or surface waters, in order to control occasional invaders or aggregating pests.

CONTAINER DISPOSAL: Nonrefillable container. Do not reuse or refill this container. Offer for recycling if available. Triple rinse container (or equivalent) promptly after emptying. Triple rinse as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or a mix tank and drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Fill the container ¼ full with water and recap. Shake for 10 seconds. 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 or reconditioning, or puncture and dispose of in a sanitary landfill, or by incineration or, if allowed by state and local authorities, by burning.
