A selective miticide for the control of European red mite and two-spotted mite on pipfruit.

APPLICATION METHODS
Fenamite can be applied using conventional and concentrate spraying methods.

Application Equipment
IMPORTANT: In order to select the appropriate nozzles for the required spray quality and to operate the equipment to minimize spray drift, this product must be applied in accordance with the New Zealand Standard for the Management of Agrichemicals (NZS8409).
Use: a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of run-off and matched to the crop being sprayed; or a sprayer designed and set up for concentrate spraying (that is a sprayer which applies water volumes less than those required to reach the point of run-off) and matched to the crop being sprayed.
Flush equipment thoroughly with clean water after use.
Cleaning spray equipment:

After using PRODUCT:
Empty the spray tank completely and drain the whole system. Thoroughly wash inside the unit using a pressure hose. Drain spray unit and clean any filters in the tank, pump, lines, hoses and nozzles.
After cleaning the spray unit as above, quarter fill with clean water and circulate the water through the pump, lines, hoses and nozzles. Drain and repeat the rinsing procedure twice.
Discard rinse water on land already sprayed or on wasteland away from desirable plants and water sources.

MIXING:
Fenamite mixes readily with water. Pour the required quantity of Fenamite into the partly filled spray tank and add the remainder of the water, agitating thoroughly during filling. Agitate after a stoppage before recommencing spraying

COMPATIBILITY
Fenamite is compatible with the commonly used intermediate oils, and wettable powder formulations of insecticides and fungicides. Do not mix with lime sulphur or strongly alkaline material such as Bordeaux mixture. Avoid applications under slow drying or frosty conditions.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
Intensive use of miticides could result in the development of resistant strains of mites. To minimise this risk of resistance, use strictly in accordance with label directions.
