Entrust 80

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Entrust 80 Insecticide is derived from the fermentation of Saccharopolyspora spinosa. Entrust 80 Insecticide is recommended for use in integrated pest management programs. Entrust 80 Insecticide should be applied when scouting indicates that target pest densities have reached the economic threshold. Follow the specific use instructions given in this label to control target pests. Entrust Insecticide 80 should be mixed with water and applied with ground application equipment only. Any insect control agent can become less effective over time if target insects develop resistance to its mode of action. Adherence to local integrated pest management strategies helps to prolong the usefulness of all insect control products.
Do not enter, or allow worker entry into treated areas until pesticide residues have dried.

Application Rate
Always shake well before use. Avoid freezing. Use the following table.

Application Instructions
Apply product in a minimum of 1000 L water per hectare (amount of water will vary according to tree size). If adequate spray coverage of plant canopy requires less solution per hectare, adjust spray volume accordingly while using the same spray concentration (g product/L water). Do not exceed 109 g product per hectare per application. Mix the recommended dosage of Entrust 80 Insecticide in sufficient water to ensure adequate coverage and apply as a dilute spray using ground airblast equipment.
Attention should be given to sprayer speed and calibration, wind speed, and tree foliar canopy to ensure adequate spray coverage of Entrust 80 Insecticide. Ensure all plant parts are thoroughly wetted, to the point of runoff, with spray solution. To determine the number of litres of spray per hectare required in your apple orchard, consult the provincial fruit recommendations guide, or pest management advisors and extension specialists.

Application Timing
Monitor larval population in the spring, and apply when larvae begin emerging and are actively feeding, but before they roll up in the leaves. For control of the summer generation, monitor adult moth flight and larval densities to determine correct timing application. A repeat application 7 to 10 days after the initial application may be necessary for control. Apply only if treatment thresholds are exceeded. A maximum seasonal rate of 327 g product/ha of Entrust 80 Insecticide may be applied. Avoid treating sequential generations with the same class of insect control products to delay resistance selection. Consult provincial guidelines and local extension experts for monitoring protocols and thresholds for treatment.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Field sprayer application
DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (ASAE) coarse classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.

Airblast Application
DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT direct spray above plants to be treated. Turn off outward pointing nozzles at row ends and outer rows. DO NOT apply when wind speed is greater than 16km/h at the application site as measured outside of the treatment area on the upwind side.
DO NOT apply by air.
