USE RESTRICTIONS
- Do not enter or allow others to enter treated areas untilsprays have dried.
- Do not exceed the maximum application rates specifiedon this label or apply this product more often than this label specifies.
- Do not spray wet plants.
- Do not apply this product when the temperature is above 90°F or below 40°F.
- Do not apply this product during periods of prolonged high temperature combined with high humidity. Horticultural oils interfere with or slow plant transpiration and respiration during the period of evaporation.
- Do not spray plants that are under stress from drought or disease.
- Do not apply this product to oil-sensitive plant varieties.
- Do not mix this product with sulfur or sulfur-containing products.
- On Grapes, do not apply sulfur within 10 days before or after use of this product. On other crops, do not apply sulfur within 14 days before or after use of this product.
USE PRECAUTIONS
Keep the oil container tightly closed in storage to prevent entry of water. All horticultural oils interfere with or slow plant transpiration and respiration during the period of evaporation. Therefore, do not spray plants under stress (i.e., drought, disease) and do not apply during periods of prolonged high temperature combined with high relative humidity.
- Certain plant species may be sensitive to oil. Test-spray 1 to 3 plants and observe their responses to treatment for several days before general spraying.
- Use caution when spraying open blooms. Bleaching and spotting of open blooms have been observed.
- The effectiveness of this product may be reduced if prolonged temperatures below 50° F are experienced due to the reduced respiration rate of insects at such temperatures.
- Protect painted surfaces, carpets, and furnishings from overspray. This product may cause discoloration.
MIXING DIRECTIONS
