USE INFORMATION
IMIDACLOPRID 60WP GH is for insect control on ornamental and vegetable plants in nurseries, greenhouses and interior plantscapes. IMIDACLOPRID 60WP GH is a systemic product and will be translocated upward within the plant. To assure optimum effectiveness, the product must be placed where the roots of the plant can absorb the active ingredient.
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment Irrigate moderately but thoroughly after application, allowing no leaching and runout from container for at least three irrigations or 10 days which ever is longer.
Resistance: Some insects are known to develop resistance to insecticides after repeated use. As with any insecticide, the use of this product should conform to resistance management strategies established for the use area. Consult your Cooperative Extension Service for resistance management strategies and recommended pest management practices for your area.
For resistance management purposes, a foliar application of any chloronicotinyl insecticide following an IMIDACLOPRID 60WP GH soil application in the same crop is not recommended. Incorporation: Incorporation of IMIDACLOPRID 60WP GH can be achieved by cultivation, irrigation, rainfall, mechanical placement, soil injection, drenching, and broadcast sprays. Woody Perennials: Onset of protection is slower than in herbaceous species. A delay of 2 or more weeks should be expected. Longer delays may be expected with larger plants. Application should therefore be made well in advance of expected insect activity.
Bark Media: Media with 30 to 50% or more bark content may confer a shorter period of protection when treated with IMIDACLOPRID 60WP GH.
Tank Mixes: IMIDACLOPRID 60WP GH has been found to be compatible with commonly used liquid fertilizers, fungicides and insecticides. Check physical compatibility using the correct proportion of products in a small jar test if local experience is unavailable.
Do not use IMIDACLOPRID 60WP GH packets in a tank mix with products that contain boron or release free chlorine. The resultant reaction of PVA and boron or free chlorine is a plastic which is not soluble in water. However, normal chlorinated water is acceptable for mixing.
MIXING: Within each foil pouch is a clear inner packet containing IMIDACLOPRID 60WP GH. The clear inner packet is water soluble. Do not allow packets to become wet prior to adding to the tank. Do not handle the clear inner packets with wet hands or wet gloves. Rough handling may cause breakage.
Reseal outer carton to protect remaining packets. To prepare the mixture, remove the outer foil pouch and drop the required number of unopened clear water soluble packets, as determined under "Recommended Drench and Irrigation Applications", into the spray tank while filling with water to the desired level. Operate the agitator while mixing. Depending on the water temperature and the degree of agitation, the packets should be completely dissolved within a few minutes from the time they are added to the water. Cooler water temperatures increase the time needed for the inner packet to dissolve completely.
