Double Threat CP is a broad-spectrum cotton insecticide that utilizes two active ingredients for dual mode-of-action insect control. This co-pack contains 1 gallon of bifenthrin insecticidel miticide and 0.44 gallon of spinosad insecticide. Do not use either component separately.

Chemigation Use Directions
Apply this product only through sprinkler including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side (wheel) roll, traveler, big gun, solid set, or hand move irrigation systems. Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system. Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system. For LEPA irrigation a minimum of 0.75 inch of water per acre is re ommended. Where non-emulsified oils are used as the diluent, 1 to 2 pints per acre is recommended. '
Results from utilizing chemigation have been variable and depend upon the set up and calibration of equipment. Crop injury, lack of
effectiveness, ,or illegal residUes in the crop can result from nonuniform distribution of treated water. Contact your State Agricultural
Extensio"n Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts for consultation on the suitability of the equipment set up to
obtain effective control of the target insect pests. A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should
the need arise. Failure to cease application during a mechanical stoppage may result in undesirable residues to adjacent areas. The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic,
quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automaticalyor manually shut down. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops. The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected. Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. Double Threat CP insecticide/miticide should be applied continuously for the duration of the water application. Double Threat CP should be diluted in sufficient volume to ensure accurate application over the area to be treated. When using chemigation, a minimum of 0.5 inch per acre of irrigation water is recommended. Agitation generally is not
required when a suitable diluent is used. A diluent test should be conducted to ensure thatphase separation will not occur during dilution and application. Failure to achieve a uniform dilution throughout the time of application may result in undesirable residues or less than desirable control.
