GENERAL INFORMATION
Rimon is an insecticide for control of certain foliar and fruit feeding insect pests on apple and pear. Rimon may be applied alone, as a tankmix, or in rotation with other insecticides. The primary mode of action is by disrupting cuticle formation and deposition occuring when insects molt, resulting in their death. Due to this mode of action, Rimon has no direct effect on adults

Chemigation Statement: Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.

NOTE: The compatibility of Rimon with concurrent releases of insects for biocontrol of plant pests has not been established. When used as directed, Rimon affects developing immature stages of insects by disrupting the molting process. Consequently, fully developed adult stages of pest and beneficial species are not affected.

Spray Drift: For orchard airblast applications turn off outward pointing nozzles at row ends and outer rows. Apply only when wind speed is 10 mph at the application site as measured by an anemometer outside of the orchard/vineyard on the upwind side. The applicator also must use all other measures necessary to control drift.

Mixing Instructions: Prepare solutions in a clean, empty spray tank. Use clean spray filters. Add water to 112 level of tank. Add the appropriate amount of Rimon to the tank and agitate to insure proper mixture. Continue filling tank with water until desired dilution is achieved. Re-agitate sprayer before use if application is interrupted; maintain tank agitation during application. Make up only the amount of application volume as required.

Spray Coverage: All parts of the crop must receive uniform spray coverage or else desired result may not occur. Consult your local agricultural specialist for specific information on the best rates, timings, and spray volumes for your region.

Application: Rimon must be ingested by insect larvae or adsorbed into eggs to be fully effective. Proper application techniques help ensure thorough spray coverage and correct dosage necessary to obtain optimum control. Higher water volumes and increased spray pressures generally provide better coverage. Apply at the recommended rates when insect populations reach locally determined economic thresholds. Consult the cooperative extension service, professional consultants or other qualified authorities to determine appropriate threshold levels for treatment in your area. Sequential treatments of Rimon should be applied as needed, to keep pest population within threshold limits. Depending on target pest, Rimon should be applied at 14 to 17day intervals to maintain control.
