PRODUCT INFORMATION
Actara 240 SC controls many sucking and chewing insects through contact and ingestion on the crops listed on this label.
For best performance, always follow these directions:
- Actara 240 SC should be applied when insect pest populations begin to build, but before populations reach economically damaging levels. Economic thresholds for pests controlled by Actara may be available from your local agricultural authorities.
- Actara 240 SC is a selective insecticide, and its use is compatible with integrated pest management programs. However, Actara 240 SC is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or to residues on blooming crops/plants and weeds. Do not apply Actara 240 SC or allow it to drift onto blooming plants if bees are foraging in the treated area.
- Actara 240 SC is rapidly taken up into foliage after application. However, thorough spray coverage is essential for optimal performance. Apply Actara 240 SC in sufficient water to ensure good coverage. See specific application information in the Crop Use Directions section of this label. The use of higher water volumes will generally result in better coverage, especially under adverse conditions (e.g., hot, dry) or where a dense plant canopy exists. The use of a spray adjuvant may improve spray coverage but is not required.
- Actara 240 SC is rainfast once the spray solution has dried on treated plants.
- Actara 240 SC may aid in the suppression of some pests. Suppression can mean either inconsistent control (good to poor), or consistent control at a level below that generally considered acceptable for commercial control.
- Actara 240 SC has a wide margin of plant safety when used in accordance with this label. If the maximum season limit of thiamethoxam as defined in the Crop Use Directions section of this label has been applied and pest populations require additional treatments, use another registered pesticide that is not in the neonicotinoid class of chemistry.

Important: Always read and follow label instructions when buying or using this product.
