GENERAL INFORMATION
ACELEPRYN Insecticide is a liquid formulation to be mixed in water and applied to turf for control of annual bluegrass weevil, black cutworm, black turfgrass ataenius, European chafer larvae, European crane fly larvae and Japanese beetle larvae. ACELEPRYN Insecticide may be applied to turfgrass in sites such as sod farms, golf courses, parks and recreational areas, home and residential lawns, industrial and commercial lawns, airports and cemeteries. ACELEPRYN Insecticide may be applied for use on greenhouse and outdoor oranmentals for Japanese beetle larvae control. Use sufficient water to obtain thorough, uniform coverage.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
APPLICATION TIMING
Annual Bluegrass Weevil: ACELEPRYN Insecticide should be applied when overwintered adult annual bluegrass weevils are observed in late April or early May to prevent damage from larvae in late-May and June. An application of ACELEPRYN Insecticide at this time will also provide European chafer larvae and Japanese beetle larvae control. The higher rates listed below may be required for applications made after mid-May.
Black cutworms: ACELEPRYN Insecticide will provide curative cutworm control in turfgrass. To ensure optimum control, delay watering (irrigation) or mowing for 24 hours after application. If the area being treated is maintained at a mowing height of greater than one inch, then the higher rate listed below may be required during periods of high pest pressure.
European Crane Fly Larvae: Apply ACELEPRYN Insecticide between September and November to control European crane fly larvae in turfgrass. The higher labelled rate may be required to achieve control when applications are made in late fall.
Black turfgrass ataenius beetle larvae, European chafer larvae, and Japanese beetle larvae: Apply ACELEPRYN Insecticide from early April to early September for preventative and early curative control of Japanese beetle larvae, European chafer larvae and Black turfgrass ataenius beetle larvae. The need for an application may be based on historical monitoring of the site, previous records or experiences, current season adult trapping or other methods. The higher rate listed for control may be required for early season (April and May) applications where a long residual is required or in late August or early September when less sensitive mid-instar larvae are present at the time of application. Irrigate turf immediately after application or allow rainfall to move the product into the soil.
Applications should not be made when the soil is saturated with water because adequate distribution of the active ingredient vertically in the soil profile cannot be achieved under this condition. Optimal results will be achieved if the product is irrigated into the turf immediately after application.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:
Spray equipment must be clean and free of previous pesticide deposits before applying ACELEPRYN Insecticide. Fill spray tank 1/4 to 1/2 full of water. Add ACELEPRYN Insecticide directly to spray tank. Mix thoroughly to fully disperse the insecticide; once dispersed continued agitation is required. Use mechanical or hydraulic means; do not use air agitation.
Spray mix should not be stored overnight in spray tank.
