DIRECTIONS FOR USE
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. For use only by federal, state, tribal or local government officials responsible for public health or vector control or bypersons certified in the appropriate category or otherwise authorized by the state or tribal lead pesticide regulatory agency to perform adult mosquito control applications or by persons under their direct supervision.
GROUND APPLICATION
ULV NON-THERMAL AEROSOL (COLD FOG): To control adult mosquitoes, flies, and gnats (blackflies) apply Pro-Mate UL 4-4 using truck mounted ground ULV (cold fog) equipment with a swath width of 300 feet in areas such as residential, recreational, industrial areas. Apply when insects are most active and conditions are conducive to keeping the fog close to the ground. Apply the undiluted product at flow rates of 4.092 to 19.092 fluid oz. per minute at a truck speed of 10 mph. These rates are equivalent to 0.001 to 0.007 pounds ofpermethrin a.i. and 0.001 to 0.007 pounds of piperonyl butoxide a.i. per acre. If a different vehicle speed is used, adjust the flow rate accordingly. An accurate flow control system must be used to ensure proper flow rate. Use of the maximum flow rates and application rates on this label to treat heavy vegetation or when target insect populations are high. Do not exceed the highest flow rates specified by the manufacturer. Pro-Mate UL 4-4 may also be applied by diluting with a light mineral oil or another suitable solvent, applied so as not to exceed 0.007 Ibs. a. i. per acre using a swath width of 300 feet for calculation. Refer to Chart 2 for suggested rates for diluted use. Pro-Mate UL 4-4 may be used to treat outdoor aggregation and harborage sites including storm drains, underground drainage pipes, and pipe chases.
THERMAL AEROSOL APPLICATIONS: For use in thermal fogging equipment such as truck-mounted thermal fog generators or other equipment capable of making thermal fogging applications. Pro-Mate UL 4-4 may be applied either diluted or undiluted. If diluted, use a light mineral oil, or another suitable non-phytotoxic diluent. Do notexceed the maximum rate of 0.007 Ibs. a.i. per acre. May be applied with truck-mounted equipment at speeds of 5mph to 20 mph. Use a swath width of 300 feet for calculation. For use with handheld, backpack or lawn mower thermal fogging equipment do not exceed the maximum rate of 0.00 7 Ibs. a. i. per acre. Use a walking speed of 2 mph (3.2 kph) and a swath width of 300 feet for calculations. May be used to treat aggregation and harborage sites such as abandoned buildings, warehouses, storm drains, underground drainage pipes, pipe chases and other areas where adult mosquitoes find harborage.
BARRIER APPLICATIONS: For use in non-thermal ULV. motorized, portable, backpack, handheld or truckmounted fogging equipment or mist blower equipment, apply Pro-Mate UL 4-4 with equipment adjusted to deliverULV particles of 50 to 100 volume median diameter. Pro-Mate UL 4-4 may be applied undiluted or diluted (see Application Rates Charts on this label). If diluted, use a light mineral oil, or another suitable, non-phytotoxic diluent. For truck-mounted applications, use not more than 0.007 Ibs. permethrin per acre. Use a 300 ft. (15.2 m) swath width (see application rate charts on this label) for calculations. For backpack or handheld applications, use not more than 0.007 Ibs. a.i. per acre. Use a 300 ft. swath width and a walking speed of 2 mph (3.2 kph) for calculations. Direct spray onto foliage at the perimeter of areas from which mosquitoes or flies are to be excluded or direct spray into harborage areas where adult mosquitoes or flies may be found. May be used to treataggregation and harborage sites such as abandoned buildings, residential buildings, warehouses, storm drains, underground drainage pipes and other areas where adult mosquitoes find harborage.
AERIAL APPLICTION
Use aircraft specially equipped and capable of applying Ultra-Low Volumes of Pro-Mate UL 4-4. Applications can be made diluted or undiluted but cannot exceed the specified rates of 0.007 Ibs. permethrin per acre and 0.007 Ibs. piperonyl butoxide per acre, equivalent to 3.1819 fl. oz. of undiluted Pro-Mate UL 4-4 per acre. Applications should be made at an altitude of 100 to 300 feet. Apply at airspeed sufficient to deliver the appropriate amount of active ingredient per acre. The minimum height (from the ground) for aerial application of this product is 100 feet. Treatwhen insects are most active and meteorological conditions are conducive to keeping the spray cloud close to theground. In order to compensate for windy conditions and ensure drift onto the target area aerial application with aircraft equipped with Global Positioning Systems (GPS) is recommended. PROHIBITION ON AERIAL USE IN FLORIDA: Not for aerial application in the State of Florida UNLESS specifically authorized by the Bureau of Entomology and Pest Control, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
