Directions For Use

It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Read all directions for use carefully before applying. 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.

AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS - Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR part 170.
This Standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted-entry interval (REI). The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval REI of 12 hours. PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water, is: Coveralls, chemical resistant gloves and shoes plus socks.

NON-AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS - The requirements of this box apply to uses of this product that are NOT within the scope of the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR Part 170). The WPS applies when this product is used to produce agricultural plants on farms, forests, nurseries, or greenhouses.
Do not enter or allow others to enter the treated area until dusts have settled. It soil incorporation is required after the application, do not enter or allow others to enter the treated area (except those persons involved in the incorporation)
until the incorporation is complete. If the incorporation is accomplished by watering-in, do not enter or allow others to enter the treated area until the surface is dry after the watering-in.

Application Directions

Apply this product using a drop or rotary-type spreader designed to apply granular herbicides or insecticides. Calibrate application equipment prior to use according to manufacturer's directions.
Check frequently to be sure equipment is working properly and distributing granules uniformly.
Do not use spreaders that apply material in narrow concentrated bands. Avoid skips or overlaps as poor weed control or plant injury may occur. More uniform application may be
achieved by spreading half of the required amount of product over the area and then applying the remaining half in swaths at right angles to the first.
Application Techniques for Applying This Product When using a drop-type spreader, a splash board mounted under the hopper will provide more
even granule distribution.
A chain fastened to the side of the spreader and allowed to drag on the soil surface can be used to mark the edge of the treated swath and help prevent skips or overlaps.
For treating smaller areas or rows of nursery stock or ornamental beds, a hand held or pushtype rotary applicator such as whirlybird or cyclone unit is recommended. For hand held units,
walk and turn the crank at a constant rate of speed. A shaker-type applicator made from a small container with holes punched in the bottom is recommended for small, hard to treat areas. Carefully measure the amount of product needed to avoid over-application.
