PRODUCT INFORMATION MITE-E-OIL is a special blend of refined phytobland oils that function as a contact insecticide and miticide. The surfactant/emulsifier
components of MITE-E-OIL modify the wetting and deposition characteristics of the spray droplets to improve spray applications.

USE RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
The spray tank must be free of any sulfur residue before using MITE-E-OIL for applications to foliage. Unless otherwise instructed by this label, do not combine sulfur sprays with MITE-E-OIL on foliage and, for plant safety, do not follow a previous application of sulfur or apply sulfur following MITE-E-OIL until at least 30 days have elapsed. If in doubt, spray a portion of one tree previously treated with sulfur, using 1 quart of MITE-E-OIL to 25 gallons water. If sufficient time has not elapsed, burn will show in several days. MITE-E-OIL can be used with registered label rates of other pesticides. If temperatures dropped below 32°F (including overnight lows), do not spray tree and vine crops until daytime temperatures have risen to above 35°F and are free of moisture due to melting frost or heavy dew.Applications to trees weakened by disease, drought, driving winds or high nitrogen applications may result in oil-caused injury. For all applications to be effective, complete coverage is essential. Thorough inside- and outside-tree application is needed.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
1) Add enough water to the mixing tank for proper agitation.
2) Add nutrients and other pesticides. If dry pesticide products are used, mix the materials with water thoroughly so that they are completely dispersed in the mixing tank. DO NOT add MITE-E-OIL before a uniform mixture is obtained.
3) Maintain agitation of the mix until the spray is applied. Flush any spray mix remaining in hoses back into the tank if the solution stands for more than 20 minutes.
4) Ensure that spray equipment is thoroughly clean so that residues from other applications do not remain.
