GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Overview of Biff:

  • Biff is a contact and residual insecticide/miticide.
  • It can be used preventively at regular intervals or as a knockdown treatment for existing pests.

Insecticide Resistance Warning:

  • Biff is a Group 3A insecticide.
  • Warning about naturally occurring insect biotypes resistant to Biff and other Group 3A insecticides.
  • Resistant individuals may dominate the population with repeated use, reducing Biff's effectiveness.
  • Difficult to detect resistant individuals before use; no liability for losses due to failure to control resistant insects.
  • Biff may be subject to specific resistance management strategies.

Re-entry Period:

  • Do not re-enter treated areas until spray deposits have dried or been watered in after treatment.
  • Prior entry requires suitable protective clothing (waterproof boots, overalls, and gloves) and clothing washing after each day’s use.
