Cythrin Max EC

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
IMPORTANT: This information is approved as part of the Product Label. All instructions within this section must be read carefully in order to obtain safe and successful use of this product.

RESTRICTIONS OR WARNING
Safety to Bees: Care should be taken when treating crops in flower to minimise any harm to foraging bees by informing local beekeepers. Additionally, spraying should be carried out in late evening or early morning or during periods of dull weather.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
The following precautions should be taken:
- follow label recommendations for rotating or mixing products from different classes based on modes of action (not just different brands or other pyrethroids). When there are multiple applications per year, alternate products with different classes so that only one generation per year is exposed to a class. When only one application is made, rotate products from different classes from year to year to reduce selection pressure;
- use insecticides at labeled rates and spray intervals. Do not reduce or increase rates from manufacturer recommendations as this can hasten resistance development. Monitor subsequent pest levels to gauge control.
- calibrate equipment for accurate application. Use recommended spray volumes and pressures.
- use the insecticide only if insect counts exceed the local economic threshold or the point where economic losses exceed the costs of insecticide plus application. Time applications against the most susceptible life stages to gain maximum benefit from the product. Strains of some aphid species are resistant to many aphicides. Where aphids and pollen beetle resistant to products containing cypermethrin occur, ‘Cythrin Max EC’ is unlikely to give satisfactory control. Repeat treatments are likely to result in lower levels of control. Please refer to current IRAG-UK and HGCA advice on resistance management for relevant insect pests and crops.

PESTS CONTROLLED
Cythrin Max EC is an emulsifiable concentrate insecticide containing cypermethrin. It controls a large number of insects in agricultural and horticultural crops. It is a non-systemic insecticide with contact and stomach action.

MIXING, SPRAYING AND COMPATIBILITY

Mixing

Ensure that all spraying equipment is thoroughly washed out immediately after use.

Spray Quality
For all crops apply as a MEDIUM spray as defined by the BCPC system. Where high volume is recommended, sprays should be applied to the point of run-off.
