RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS

For resistance management, PEST-KOTE® contains a Group 3A insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to PEST-KOTE® and other Group 3A insecticides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed.

To delay insecticide resistance, consider:

• Avoiding the consecutive use of PEST-KOTE® and other Group 3A insecticides that have a similar target site of action, on the same insect species.

• Using tank mixtures or premixes with insecticides from a different target site of action Group as long as the involved products are all registered for the same use and have different sites of action.

• Basing insecticide use on a comprehensive IPM program.

• Monitoring treated insect population for loss of field efficacy.

• Contacting your local extension specialist, certified crop advisors, and/or manufacturer at 1-469-277-7758 for insecticide resistance management, and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and resistance pest problems.

Used in Combination with other Insecticides: PEST-KOTE® may be combined with other insecticides and acaricides where resistance may be a problem. See additional tank mix direction under Application Instructions.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

BUFFER WATER TO PH RANGE OF 5.0 to 7.5

LOW-VOLUME SPRAYERS (including but not limited to backpack sprayers, turbine sprayers, orchard sprayers, mist blowers): Dilute according to dilution table or specific directions for use. Direct the nozzle(s) into the plant canopy to get good penetration and coverage, maintain the appropriate distance from the plants to avoid blast damage. The operator should visualize that all the air within the canopy must be replaced by the air from the blower.
