Mixing
Half fill the spray tank with water. Add the required amount of insecticide, top up the tank with water and agitate.

Insect Resistance
Some insects, particularly aphids, have in some areas become resistant to dimethoate and other organophosphorus insecticides. In such circumstances, good control from Dimethoate will not be obtained.

Storage
Store in a cool dry place, away from foodstuffs, seeds and other chemicals. Flammable. Protect from frost.

Do not contaminate water with the product or its container. (Do not clean application equipment near surface water / Avoid contamination via drains from farmyards and roads)
