DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Read all directions for use carefully before applying.
For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
DIMETHOATE 2.67 EC contains a Group 1B insecticide. Insect/mite biotypes with acquired resistance to Group 1B may eventually dominate the insect/mite population if Group 1B insecticides/acaricides are used repeatedly in the same field or in successive years as the primary method of control for targeted species. This may result in partial or total loss of control of those species by DIMETHOATE 2.67 EC or other Group 1 B.
To delay insecticide (or acaricide) resistance consider:
Avoiding the consecutive use of DIMETHOATE 2.67 EC or other Group 1B insecticides/acaricides that have a similar target site of action, on the same insect/mite species. Using tank-mixtures or premixes with insecticides/acaricides from a different target site of action Group as long as the involved products are all registered for the same use and have different sites of action.
Basing insecticide/acaricide use on a comprehensive IPM program. Monitoring treated insect/mite populations for loss of field efficacy. Contacting your local extension specialist, certified crop advisors, and/or manufacturer for insecticide/acaricide resistance management and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and resistant pest problems.
This product is for use in commercial setting only. Use in residential settings is prohibited.

Requirements for Reducing Spray Drift
Do not apply under circumstances where possible drift to unprotected persons or to food, forage, or other plantings that might be damaged or crops thereof rendered unfit for sale, use, or consumption can occur.
1. Use the largest droplet size consistent with acceptable efficacy. Formation of very small droplets may be minimized by appropriate nozzle selection, by orienting nozzles away from the air stream as much as possible, and by avoiding excessive spray boom pressure. For groundboom and aerial applications, use medium or coarser spray nozzles according to ASAE 572 definition for standard nozzles or a volume mean diameter (VMD) of 300 microns or greater for spinning atomizer nozzles.
2. Make a aerial or ground applications when the wind velocity favors on-target product deposition. Apply only when the wind speed is less than or equal to 10 mph. For all nonaerial applications, wind speed must be measured adjacent to the application site on the upwind side, immediately prior to application.
3. Do not make aerial or ground applications into areas of temperature inversions. Inversions are characterized by stable air and increasing temperatures with increasing distance above the ground. Mist or fog may indicate the presence of an inversion in humid areas. Where permissible by local regulations, the applicator may detect the presence of an inversion by producing smoke and observing a smoke layer near the ground surface.
4. Low humidity and high temperatures increase the evaporation rate of spray droplets and therefore the likelihood of increased spray drift. Avoid spraying during conditions of low humidity and/or high temperatures.
5. All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using appropriate carriers.
6. For groundboom applications, apply with nozzle height no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy.
7. For airblast applications, turn off outward pointing nozzles at row ends and when spraying the outer two rows. To minimize spray loss over the top in orchard applications, spray must be directed into the canopy.
8. For aerial applications, release spray at the lowest height consistent with efficacy and flight safety. If the application includes an aquatic buffer zone, do not release spray at height greater than 10 feet above the ground or crop canopy.
9. For aerial applications, mount the spray boom on the aircraft so as to minimize drift caused by wing tip vortices. The minimum practical boom length should be used and must not exceed 75% of the wingspan of 90% of rotor blade diameter. Use upwind swath displacement.'

DIRECTIONS FOR APPLICATIONS
DIMETHOATE 2.67 EC is a clear liquid. When added to water, it will disperse readily and will remain physically stable with a MINIMUM AMOUNT OF AGITATION.
APPLICATION EQUIPMENT: DIMETHOATE 2.67 EC can be applied by any pressure sprayer that will give uniform distribution of the spray such as ground sprayers, aerial sprayers or portable sprayers.
AERIAL APPLICATION: Automatic flagging devices should be used whenever feasible. If human flaggers are employed they must wear the protective clothing and respirator specified on this label.
Apply at least one gallon of finished spray per acre. Apply at least 5 gallons finished spray per acre in California. Maximum application rates are listed in the crop specific directions for use.
GROUND APPLICATION: Apply in sufficient water for good coverage unless otherwise stated. Avoid drift to adjacent crops. Maximum application rates are listed in the crop specific directions for use. High Pressure Handwand Equipment: When applications are made by high pressure handwand equipment, the maximum application rate for all crops and use-patterns is 0.0025 pounds active ingredient per gallon.
