GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

APPLICATION Good control requires good coverage. Application should be made using sufficient water to ensure thorough coverage.

TURF NUTRITION This product acts very rapidly and where the turf is of a low nutritional status, a slight yellowing may be seen. This will be corrected by nitrogenous fertilizer application. Where possible, it is recommended that the fertilizer program should precede the fungicide application.

RESISTANCE WARNING For fungicide resistance management, PATRIOT Fungicide is a Group 3 & 11 fungicide. Some naturally occurring individual fungi resistant to PATRIOT and other Group 3 & 11 fungicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any fungal population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the fungal population if these fungicides are used repeatedly. These resistant fungi will not be controlled by PATRIOT and other Group 3 & 11 fungicides, thus resulting in a reduction in efficacy. Since the occurrence of resistant fungi is difficult to detect prior to use, Adama Australia accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of PATRIOT Fungicide to control resistant fungi.

RE-ENTRY DO NOT allow entry into treated areas until the spray has dried. When prior entry is necessary, wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist (or equivalent clothing) and chemical resistant gloves. Clothing must be laundered after each day’s use.

RISK TO NON-TARGET INSECTS PATRIOT may have adverse effects on some non-target beneficial insects, in particular predatory bugs. This risk should be taken into account where Integrated Pest Management utilizing these organisms is practiced.

PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS DO NOT apply under weather conditions, or from spraying equipment, that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands, or pastures.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers, or watercourses with this product or used containers.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL Store in the closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area. DO NOT store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. Triple or preferably pressure rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to the spray tank. DO NOT dispose of undiluted chemicals on site. If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. If not recycling, break, crush, or puncture and deliver empty packaging to an approved waste management facility. If an approved waste management facility is not available, bury the empty packaging 500 mm below the surface in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose, clear of waterways, desirable vegetation, and tree roots, in compliance with relevant local, state, or territory government regulations. Do not burn empty containers or product.

SAFETY DIRECTIONS When opening the container and preparing spray and using the prepared spray, wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist (or equivalent clothing) and elbow-length chemical resistant gloves. If applying by spraying equipment carried on the back of the user, wear cotton overalls over normal clothing buttoned to the neck and wrist and elbow-length chemical resistant gloves. Wash hands after use. After each day’s use, wash gloves and contaminated clothing.
