DIRECTIONS FOR USE

 Avoid application when temperatures are above 27°C. Best control is obtained at cooler temperatures.
 Cover crop or crop treated with Ship 250 EC Insecticide must not be used as a green feed for animals except as noted for corn, rutabagas and turnips.
 To protect pollinators, follow the instructions regarding bees in the ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS section.
 As this product is not registered for the control of pests in aquatic systems, DO NOT use to control aquatic pests.
 DO NOT contaminate irrigation or drinking water supplies or aquatic habitats by cleaning of equipment or disposal of wastes.
 Crop Rotation: Rotational crops may not be planted within 30 days after the last application, except crops on which cypermethrin is registered (listed on this label)
 A 30-day plant-back interval must be observed for all unlabelled crops. DO NOT enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval (REI) of 12 hours except for sweet corn hand harvesting (5 days) and grape girdling or turning (7 days)

Vegetative Filter Strips:
A Vegetative Filter Strip (VFS) of at least 10 metres wide must be constructed and maintained. The VFS is required between the field edge and adjacent, downhill aquatic habitats to reduce risk to aquatic organisms from runoff. Aquatic habitats include, but are not limited to, lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, marshes or natural ponds, and estuaries.
The VFS is to be composed of grasses and may also include shrubs, trees, or other vegetation. Additional guidance can be found on the PMRA Environmental Risk Mitigation webpages.
Both VFS and spray drift buffer zones must be observed.

Spray Drift Buffer Zones:
Spray drift buffer zones are to protect terrestrial and aquatic habitats from spray drift in the air. Spray drift buffer zones are a separate requirement from VFS which are required to mitigate risks from runoff on the ground.

Field sprayer application: DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply when wind speed is greater than 8 km/h at the site of application. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE S572.1) medium classification. Air-induction nozzles must be used for the ground application of this product. 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 16 km/h at the application site as measured outside of the treatment area on the upwind side.

Aerial application: DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply when wind speed is greater than 8 km/h at flying height at the site of application. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE S572.1) medium-coarse classification. DO NOT apply under weather conditions of less than 50% relative humidity and temperatures greater than 20°C. Reduce drift caused by turbulent wingtip vortices. Nozzle distribution along the spray boom length MUST NOT exceed 65% of the wing- or rotorspan.

Buffer zones:
Spot treatments using hand-held equipment DO NOT require a buffer zone.
The buffer zones specified in the table below are required between the point of direct application and the closest downwind edge of sensitive freshwater habitats (such as lakes, rivers, sloughs, ponds, prairie potholes, creeks, marshes, streams, reservoirs and wetlands) and estuarine/marine habitats.
