RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
For resistance management, please note that DIBROM Insecticide contains a Group 1B insecticide/acaricide. Any insect/mite population may contain individuals naturally resistant to DIBROM Insecticide and other Group 1B insecticides/acaricides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect/mite population if this group of insecticides/acaricides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Other resistance mechanisms that are not linked to site of action but are specific for individual chemicals, such as enhanced metabolism, may also exist. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed.
To delay insecticide/acaricide resistance:
• Where possible, rotate the use of DIBROM Insecticide or other Group 1B insecticides/acaricides with different groups that control the same pests in a field.
• Use tank mixtures with insecticides/acaricides from a different group when such use is permitted.
• Insecticide/acaricide use should be based on an IPM program that includes scouting, record keeping and considers cultural, biological and other chemical control practices.
• Monitor treated pest populations for resistance development.
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and pest problems in your area.

AERIAL APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Use only where aerial application is indicated on this label.
Apply only by fixed-wing or rotary aircraft equipment which has been functionally and operationally calibrated for the atmospheric conditions of the area and the application rates and conditions of this label.
Label rates, conditions and precautions are product specific. Read and understand the entire label before opening this product. Apply only at the rate recommended for aerial application on this label. Where no rate for aerial application appears for the specific use, this product cannot be applied by any type of aerial equipment. Ensure uniform application. To avoid streaked, uneven or overlapped application, use appropriate marking devices.

Use Precautions
Apply only when meteorological conditions at the treatment site allow for complete and even crop coverage.
Do not apply to any body of water. Apply only under conditions of good practice specific to aerial application as outlined in the National Aerial Pesticide Application Manual, developed by the Federal/Provincial/territorial Committee on Pest Management and Pesticides. Avoid drifting of spray onto any body of water or other non-target areas.
Coarse sprays are less likely to drift, therefore, avoid combinations of pressure and nozzle type that will result in fine particles (mist). Use low nozzle pressure (Below 300 kPa). Do not apply during periods of dead calm or when wind velocity and direction pose a risk of spray drift. Do not spray in winds exceeding 10 - 15 km per hour. Do not spray when the wind is blowing towards a nearby sensitive crop, garden, terrestrial habitat (such as shelter-belt) or aquatic habitat. Do not allow spray drift onto sensitive areas such as water, urban and residential areas.

Operator Precautions
Do not allow the pilot to mix chemicals to be loaded onto the aircraft. Loading of premixed chemicals with a closed system is permitted.
It is desirable that the pilot have communication capabilities at each treatment site at the time of application.
The field crew and the mixer/loaders must wear chemical resistant gloves, coveralls and goggles or face shield during mixing/loading, cleanup and repair. Follow the more stringent label precautions in cases where the operator precautions exceed the label recommendations on the existing ground boom label.
All personnel on the job site must wash hands and face thoroughly before eating and drinking. Protective clothing, aircraft cockpit and vehicle cabs must be decontaminated regularly.
