DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
See individual crops for specific pollinator protection application restrictions. If none exist under the specific crop, for foliar applications, follow these application directions for crops that are contracted to have pollinator services or for food/feed & commercially grown ornamentals that are attractive to pollinators.

Resistance Management: 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.
MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE contains a Group 4A insecticide. Insect biotypes with acquired or inherent resistance to Group 4A may eventually dominate the insect population if Group 4A insecticides are used repeatedly as the predominant method of control for targeted species. This may eventually result in partial or total loss of control of those species by MONTANA«2F INSECTICIDE and to other Group 4A products.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Soil Application: Direct applications of MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE into the seed or root-zone of crop.
Failure to place MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE into root-zone may result in loss of control or delay in onset of activity. MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE may be applied with ground or chemigation application. Do not apply with aerial application equipment. Broadcast, foliar applications are only directed for use on seedling flats or trays, or where product is intended to be washed from foliage to soil prior to drying on foliage.
Optimum activity of MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE results from applications to the root-zone of plants to be protected. The earlier MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE is available to a developing plant, the earlier the protection begins. MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE is continuously taken into the rolls over a long period of time and the systemic nature of MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE allows movement from rolls through the xylem tissue to all vegetative parts of the plant. This results in extended residual activity of MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE, the control of insects and the prevention and/or reduction of virus transmission or symptom expression, and plant health benefits. The rate of MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE applied affects the length of the plant protection period. Use higher specified rates when infestations occur later in crop development, or where pest pressure is continuous. MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE will generally not control insects infesting flowers, blooms or fruit. Additional crop protection may be required for insects feeding in or on these plant parts and for insects not listed in the crop-specific pests controlled sections of this label. Additional specific MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE application directions are also provided in the crop-specific sections of this label.
Suppression, or less than.complete control of certain diseases and insect pests including reduced feeding, may also result from MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE applications. Complete control of these pests/diseases may require supplemental control measures.

MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE is not allowed for use on crops grown for production of true seed intended for private or commercial planting unless issued undei State specific, 24(c) labeling. As with any insecticide, care should be taken to minimize exposure of MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE to honey bees and other pollinators. Additional information on MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE uses for these crops and other questions may be obtained from the Cooperative Extension Service, PCAs, or a private consultant. Pre-mix MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE with water or other appropriate diluents prior to application. Keep MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE and water suspension agitated to avoid settling.
Foliar Application: Apply MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE as a direct or broadcast foliar spray. Thorough coverage of foliage is necessary without runoff for optimum insecticidal efficacy. Use adequate spray volumes, properly calibrated application equipment and spray adjuvant if necessary to obtain thorough coverage. Failure to provide adequate coverage and retention of MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE on leaves and fruit may result in loss of insect control or delay in onset of activity. MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE may be applied with properly calibrated ground or aerial application equipment. Minimum spray volumes, unless otherwise specified on crop specific application sections, are 10 gallons/Acre by ground application and 5 gallons/Acre through aerial equipment. MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE may also be applied by overhead chemigation (see additional CHEMIGATION DIRECTIONS FOR USE section below) if allowed in crop specific application section.
Do not apply more than 0.5 Ibs. active ingredient per acre per year, regardless of formulation or method of application, unless specified within a crop specific applications section for a given crop.

Mixing Instructions
To prepare the application mixture, add a portion of the required amount of water to the tank and with agitation add MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE. Complete filling tank with balance of water needed. Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and application. MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE may also be used with other pesticides and/or fertilizer solutions (please see Compatibility Note below). When tank mixtures of MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE and other pesticides are involved, prepare the tank mixture as directed above and follow suggested Mixing Order below.

Mixing Order
When pesticide mixtures are needed, add wettable powders first, MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE and other flowable (suspension concentrate) products second, and emulsifiable concentrates last. Ensure good i agitation as each component is added. Do not add an additional component until the previous is thoroughly mixed. If a fertilizer solution is added, a fertilizer/pesticide compatibility agent may be needed.
Maintain constant agitation during both mixing and application to ensure uniformity of spray mixture.

Compatibility Note
Test compatibility of the intended mixture before adding MONTANA 2F INSECTICIDE to the spray or mix tank. Add proportionate amounts of each ingredient in the appropriate order to a pint or quart jar, cap, shake for 5 minutes, and let set for 5 minutes. Poor mixing or formation of precipitates that do not readily redisperse indicates an incompatible mixture that should not be used.
