Applications & Uses

Application Technique
Fungicide Target Species
Mode Of Action

Terrazole L works by inhibiting lipid peroxidation. Terrazole L works both as a curative and as a preventative fungicide. For best control, apply Terrazole L when disease symptoms first begin.

Use Sites

Terrazole L may be used on ornamental plants grown in commercial greenhouses and nurseries.

Application Rates

Terrazole L may be applied as a drench on ornamentals.

Ornamentals:

Terrazole L: Apply 2.5 to 7 fl. oz. per 100 gallons over area to be treated. See label for more details on application drench volumes for bench or potted plants.

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. 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.

INDOOR RESTRICTIONS: Entry (including early entry that would otherwise be permitted under the WPS) into greenhouses, potting sheds, and other indoor areas by any person - other than a correctly trained applicator who is performing a handling task permitted by the WPS and who is wearing the required handler PPE including a respirator — is PROHIBITED in the entire enclosed structure/building from the start of application until application is complete and one of the following ventilation criteria (providing outside air) is met: (1) 10 air exchanges; (2) 2 hours of fans or other mechanical ventilation providing outside air; (3) 4 hours of vents, windows, or other passive ventilation; (4) 11 hours with no ventilation followed by 1 hour of mechanical ventilation; (5) 11 hours of no ventilation followed by 2 hours of passive ventilation; or (6) 24 hours with no ventilation. After ventilation criteria are met and until the REI expires, do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas, except as provided in the WPS. Note: after the expiration of the REI whenever Terrazole-treated soil or planting media is being handled or disturbed indoors, continuous ventilation of the area is required at a minimum rate of one complete air exchange per hour.

Exception: if the product is soil-injected or soil-incorporated, the Worker Protection Standard, under certain circumstances, allows workers to enter the treated area if there will be no contact with anything that has been treated.

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 such as barrier laminate or viton or made out of any waterproof material
  • shoes plus socks
  • protective eyewear
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. Do not allow this product to drift. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.

Safety & Health

Personal Protective Equipment (Ppe)

Mixers, loaders, applicators and other handlers must wear (see the container label for more detail):

  • long sleeved shirt and long pants
  • chemical resistant gloves such as barrier laminate or viton
  • shoes plus socks
  • NIOSH approved respirator
Precautionary Statements

HAZARDS TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS

DANGER Corrosive. Causes irreversible eye damage. Causes skin irritation. Harmful if swallowed. Harmful if absorbed through the skin. Do not get in eyes or on clothing. Avoid contact with skin. Prolonged or frequently repeated skin contact may cause allergic reaction in some individuals

Environmental Hazards

Do not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when cleaning equipment or disposing of equipment washwaters.

Surface Water Advisory: Etridiazole can contaminate surface water through spray drift. Under some conditions, etridiazole may have a high potential for runoff into surface water for several weeks postapplication. These conditions include poorly draining or wet soils with readily visible slopes toward adjacent surface waters, frequently flooded areas, areas overlaying extremely shallow ground water, areas with infield canals or ditches that drain to surface water, areas not separated from adjacent surface waters with vegetated filter strips, and areas overlaying tile drainage systems that drain surface water.

PHYSICAL OR CHEMICAL HAZARDS

Combustible: Do not use or store near heat or open flame.

User Safety Recommendations
  • 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.

Storage & Handling

Storage And Disposal

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

PESTICIDE STORAGE: Store the product in a cool and dry place. Protect from temperatures below 20°F. Do not store near heat sources or open flame.

PESTICIDE DISPOSAL: Pesticide wastes are acutely hazardous. Improper disposal of excess pesticide, spray mixture, or rinsate is a violation of Federal Law. 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.

CONTAINER DISPOSAL: Nonrefillable container. Do not reuse or refill this container. Triple rinse or pressure rinse container (or equivalent) promptly after emptying. Once cleaned, some agricultural plastic pesticide containers can be taken to a container collection site or picked up for recycling. To find the nearest site, contact your chemical dealer or manufacturer, or contact Ag Container Recycling Council (ACRC) at 1-877- 952-2272 (toll free) or www.acrecycle.org.

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 1⁄4 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.

If pressure rinsing: Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or a mix tank and continue to drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Hold container upside down over application equipment or mix tank or collect rinsate for later use or disposal. Insert pressure rinsing nozzle in the side of the container, and rinse at about 40 PSI for at least 30 seconds. Drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Then offer for recycling or reconditioning, or puncture and dispose of in a sanitary landfill, or by other procedures approved by State and local authorities
