GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:

Before opening, carefully read Directions for Use, Precautionary Statements, Safety Directions, and First Aid Instructions.

INSECTICIDE RESISTANCE WARNING GROUP 1B INSECTICIDE: For insecticide resistance management, Rover Insecticide is a Group 1B insecticide. Some naturally-occurring insect biotypes resistant to Rover Insecticide and other Group 1B insecticides may exist through normal genetic variability in any insect population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the insect population if Rover Insecticide or other Group 1B Insecticides are used repeatedly. The effectiveness of Rover Insecticide on resistant individuals could be significantly reduced. Since the occurrence of resistant individuals is difficult to detect prior to use, Sipcam Pacific Australia Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Rover Insecticide to control resistant insects. Rover Insecticide may be subject to specific resistance strategies. For further information, contact your local supplier, Sipcam Pacific Australia Pty Ltd representative, or local department of agriculture agronomist.
