Product Information
SAURUS granular insecticide is designed for use in listed crops. Target pests and application rates are provided in the accompanying tables.
Use Precautions and Restrictions:
Insecticide Resistance Management (IRM) SAURUS contains a Group 1B insecticide. Insect/mite biotypes with acquired resistance to Group 1B may eventually dominate the insect/mite population if Group 1B insecticides are used repeatedly in the same field or in successive years as the primary method of control for targeted species. This may result in partial or total loss of control of those species by SAURUS or other Group 1B insecticides. To delay development of insecticide resistance: Avoid consecutive use of insecticides with the same mode of action (same insecticide group) on the same insect species.
Use tank mixtures or premix products containing insecticides with different modes of action (different insecticide groups) provided the products are registered for the intended use. Base insecticide use on comprehensive Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. Monitor treated insect populations in the field for loss of effectiveness. Contact your local extension specialist, certified crop advisor, and or manufacturer for insecticide resistance management and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and resistant pest problems. For further information or to report suspected resistance, you may contact Helena Chemical Company by calling 901-761-0050.
