INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
Sharda USA LLC supports the use of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs to control pests This product may be used as part of an IPM program which can include biological, cultural, and genetic practices aimed at preventing economic pest damage IPM principles and practices include field scouting or other detection methods, correct target pest identification, population monitoring, rotation of insecticides with different modes-of-action, and treating when target pest populations reach locally determined action thresholds Consult your State Cooperative Extension Service, professional consultants, or other qualified authorities to determine appropriate action treatment threshold levels for treating specific pest/crop or site systems in your area Scouting Monitor insect populations to determine whether or not there is a need for application of Comber based on locally determined economic thresholds More than one treatment of Comber may be required to control a population of pests.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Apply at the specified rates in the CROP USE DIRECTIONS when insect populations reach locally determined economic thresholds Consult the State Cooperative Extension Service, professional consultants, or other qualified authorities to determine appropriate threshold levels for treatment in your area Follow-up treatments of Comber should be applied, as needed, to keep pest populations within threshold limits Apply Comber on most crops every 3 to 5 days, as specified in the specific crop sections, to maintain control For bushberry, cranberry, dry bean, pome, and stone fruit the minimum interval between treatments is 7 days Use sufficient water to obtain thorough, uniform coverage Because Comber is most effective through ingestion of treated plant material, thorough spray coverage is essential for optimum control of targeted pest insects Using increased water volumes will typically result in better spray coverage, especially under adverse conditions such as dry, hot weather or dense plant foliage Comber may be applied by ground, aerial, or overhead sprinkler chemigation application equipment • For Aerial Application, use the following directions unless otherwise specified in this label: Use a minimum of 5 gallons per acre (gpa) of water, except in tree and vine crops use a minimum of 10 gpa • For Ground Applications, use the following directions unless otherwise specified in this label: Use a minimum of 10 gallons per acre (gpa) of water, except in tree and vine crops use a minimum of 50 gpa and a maximum of 200 gpa of water Use of Adjuvants: In some situations where coverage is difficult to achieve such as closed canopy, dense foliage, plants with waxy leaf surfaces, or less than optimum application equipment, an adjuvant may improve performance Use only adjuvant products that are labeled for agricultural use and follow the directions on the manufacturer’s label For uses in fruit crops, use a proven and recommended adjuvant that does not affect fruit finish Do not use adjuvant on bushberries or garden beets
