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. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application.
USE PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS
DO NOT use for planter box or hopper box farm treatments. Seed that has been treated with this product that is then packaged or bagged for future use must contain the following labeling: “This bag contains seed treated with Captan. Persons opening this bag or loading / pouring the treated seed must wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants, shoes, socks, and chemical-resistant gloves.” “Treated Seed – Do not use for Food, Feed, or Oil Purposes.”
Seed treated by the slurry method should not be stacked until such time as the seed has had an opportunity to dry. Store in well-ventilated areas. If seed is stacked when wet, heat is developed which impairs seed germination.
IMPORTANT: Treated seed must not be used for human consumption or as animal feed.
- Mixing Instructions
Stir the dosage of this product into the required amount of water for the slurry treater equipment to be used. User must add an EPA-approved dye with this product during the seed treatment process.

Triple rinse as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or a mix tank. Fill the container one-fourth full with water. Replace and tighten closures. Tip container on its side and roll it back and forth, ensuring at least one complete revolution, for 30 seconds. Stand the container on its end and tip it back and forth several times. Turn the container over onto its other end and tip it back and forth several times. Empty the rinsate into application equipment or a mix tank or store rinsate for later use or disposal. Repeat this procedure two more times. Offer for recycling, if available. Dispose of empty container in a sanitary landfill or by incineration, or, if allowed by State and local authorities, by burning. If burned, stay out of smoke.
