Days to Harvest: There are no restrictions on applying XenTari AS up to the time of harvest. Individual state regulations may vary and should be consulted for allowable pre-harvest application intervals.
Sites: XenTari AS may be used for any labeled pest in both field and greenhouse use. XenTari AS is an insecticide for use against listed caterpillars (larvae) oflepidopterous insects. Close scouting and early attention to infestations is highly recommended. Larvae must eat deposits ofXenTari AS to be affected. Always follow these directions:
Treat when larvae are young (early instars) before the crop is damaged.
Larvae must be actively feeding on treated, exposed plant surfaces.
Thorough spray coverage is needed to provide auniform deposit ofXenTari AS at the site of larval feeding. Use overhead and drop nozzles to obtain: good spray coverage on both sides of foliage. Use sufficient spray volume to insure uniform deposition on all plant surfaces.
Under heavy pest popUlation pressure, use the higher label rates, shorten the spray interval, andlorraise spray volume to improve spray coverage.

Repeat applications at an interval sufficient to maintain control, usually 3 to 14 days depending on plant growth rate, moth activity, rainfall after treating, and other factors. If attempting to control a pest with a single spray, make the treatment when egg hatch is predominately complete, but before crop damage occurs.
A spreader-sticker which has been approved for use on growing and harvested crops should be added for hard-to-wet crops such as cabbage, or to improve weather-fastness of the spray deposits.
XenTari AS may be tank mixed with other labeled insecticides to enhance control. Use of the resulting tank mix must be iIi accordance with the more restrictive label limitations and precautions. No dosage rates should be exceeded. This product cannot be mixed with any product containing.a label prohibition against such mixing. Before tank mixing XenTari AS. with other labeled products, including spreader stickers, check for tank mix compatibility. XenTari AS is a non-restricted use pesticide and does not require a restricted use permit for purchase and use.
After ingesting a lethal dose ofXenTari AS, larvae stop feeding within the hour, and will die within several hours to 3 days. Mortality varies with larval size (instar), lepidopteran species, and dose consumed. Following ingestion, larvae become sluggish, discolor, then shrivel, blacken and die. Smaller larvae die more quickly.
XenTari AS may be applied in conventional ground or aerial equipment (unless the application rate table allows ground application only) with quantities ofwaier sufficient to provide uniform coverage of infested plant parts. The volume of water needed per acre will depend on crop development, relative humidity, spray equipment, and local practices. Usually, selection of moderate to high spray volume will provide the best results in most equipment. For optimal results, use at least 3 gallons of water per acre by air; except in arid areas, where 5 to 10 gallons are required. Add water to the mix tank and provide moderate agitation. While agitating, add the required amount ofXenTari AS. Continue agitation, and add other spray materials, if any.
Add remaining water, if any, and agitate until fully mixed. Maintain the suspension with moderate agitation while loading and spraying. Do not mix more XenTari AS than can be used in a 3 day period.
Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator. The interaction of many equipment-and-weather-related factors determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all of these factors when making decisions.
