PRODUCT INSTRUCTIONS
Seeds and bulbs that are treated with this product and are then packaged or bagged for future use must contain the following labeling on the outside of the seed and bulb package or bag: "This bag contains seeds or bulbs treated with thiram. When opening this bag or loading/pouring the treated seeds or bulbs, wear long-sleeved shirt, long pants, shoes, socks, and chemical-resistant gloves." "Endangered species – This bag contains seed treated with thiram. This product may have effects on federally listed threatened or endangered species or their critical habitat in some counties. It is a violation of federal law to kill, harm or harass listed animal species without authorization. To limit the potential for such impacts when using this product, consult and follow the instructions provided in the EPA Endangered Species Bulletin for the county or parish in which you are applying the seed. To determine whether your county or parish has a Bulletin consult http://www.epa.gov/espp before each season's use of this product.” “Treated seed or bulbs - do not use for food, feed, or oil purposes.”
“After the seeds or bulbs have been planted, do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restrictedentry interval (REI) of 24 hours. Exception: Once the seeds or bulbs are planted in soil or other planting media, the Worker Protection Standard allows workers to enter the treated area without restriction if there will be no worker contact with the seeds or bulbs.” In addition for cotton, wheat, barley, oats, and sugar beets include the statement: “Plant [cotton, wheat, barley, oats, and sugar beet] seed a minimum of 1 inch deep.”
Note - When using formulations that do not contain dye, to comply with 40 CFR 153.155, all seed treated with an economic poison must be colored to distinguish and prevent subsequent inadvertent use as a food for man or feed for animals.

For treatment of coniferous seed:
Damping-off protection: Use 2 quarts of Thiram SC per 100 lbs. of seed. Slowly add to the seed while turning in a tumbler such as a concrete mixer. Tumble seed for approximately 2 minutes and then spread coated seed on a screen to dry.
For the treatment of ornamental bulbs, corms and tubers:
Treat any time after drying. Dip in a suspension made by mixing 1-1/2 pts. of Thiram SC in 8 gals. of water. Agitate the suspension. If they are to be stored, spread out to dry.

Directions for use as a commercial seed treatment:
Thiram SC is a liquid fungicide recommended for the treatment of seeds listed in the following table. Used according to directions, Thiram SC will usually increase stands and yields by reducing losses from seed decay, damping-off and seedling blights caused by many seed borne and soil borne organisms. Thiram SC will usually control covered smuts or bunt of wheat, barley and rye and covered kernel smut of sorghum and will usually prevent basal rot and decay of ornamental bulbs and tubers. Thiram SC aids in the control of Alternaria and Phoma on canola. Thiram SC aids in the control of seed borne conidia produced from the honeydew inoculum from field infection of Claviceps africana (ergot) on sorghum seed.

For slurry-type treater:
Thiram SC should be applied with water as a suspension in the slurry-type treater specifically designed and approved for this purpose.

For film-coating operations:
Thiram SC has demonstrated good to excellent compatibility with most commercial film-coating products. Coating procedures identified by polymer/ coating companies and film-coating equipment manufacturers should be followed when preparing coating preparations containing Thiram SC. If it is desirable to prepare slurries in large containers for addition to the slurry tank, entire contents should be thoroughly agitated before withdrawing any of the slurry.
