PRODUCT APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

Mongoose works primarily through contact action. Good coverage of young, actively growing weeds is essential for maximum weed control. The use of a spray adjuvant is usually required and for specific directions, refer to the section of this label titled ADJUVANTS AND ADDITIVES. When Mongoose is applied post-emergence, a portion of the spray solution may contact the soil surface. If soil moisture conditions are favorable for pre-emergence activity following the application, suppressed germination of small-seeded broadleaf weeds, including nightshade and pigweed species (including waterhemp and Palmer amaranth) may be expected for a 2-week period at rates of 10 fluid ounces per acre or greater. Extensive crop or weed foliage at the time of application will reduce the amount of herbicide spray contacting the soil surface, and therefore reduce the amount of soil activity. A temporary crop response must be expected following a post-emergence application of Mongoose. Leaves which are open at the time of application will show some burn, bronzing and speckling. Leaves which have emerged but are unopened at the time of application may appear cupped at the tip and/or crinkled along the edges of the leaf. Labeled crops quickly outgrow all initial herbicide effects. When Mongoose is used as directed yields will not be adversely affected.
