PRODUCT INFORMATION

TRIPLE CROWN is a biological insecticide/miticide containing fermentation solids of Chromobacterium 

substugae strain PRAA4-1T for use on ornamental plants, turf and edible crops against the pests listed in the 

Directions for Use section. TRIPLE CROWN functions primarily as a stomach poison for use in the control or 

suppression of many foliar-feeding pests, including caterpillars, foliage-feeding coleopteran, aphids, whiteflies 

and plant-sucking mites infesting labeled crops. TRIPLE CROWN must be mixed with water and applied as a 

foliar spray with ground or aerial equipment equipped for conventional insecticide spraying or by chemigation. 

TRIPLE CROWN can be used in either the field or greenhouse for the control of any labeled pest.

USE INSTRUCTIONS

TRIPLE CROWN is a highly selective insecticide/miticide for use against listed insects and mites. Close 

scouting and early attention to infestations is highly recommended. Proper timing of application targeting 

newly hatched larvae is important for optimal results.

Thorough coverage of infested plant parts is necessary for effective control. TRIPLE CROWN does not have 

systemic activity. For some crops, directed drop nozzles by ground machine are required.

Under heavy pest populations, use the higher label rates, shorten the spray interval, and/or increase the spray 

volume to improve coverage.

Repeat applications at an interval sufficient to maintain control, usually 3-10 days depending upon plant growth 

rate, insect and mite activity, and other factors. If attempting to control an insect population with a single 

application, make the treatment when egg hatch is essentially complete but before economic damage occurs.

To enhance control, consider tank mixing with contact insecticides/miticides.

For hard-to-wet crops, consider using a spreader/sticker or adjuvant, which has been approved for targeted 

crop use, to enhance adhesion of TRIPLE CROWN to the crop.

TRIPLE CROWN has been evaluated for phytotoxicity on a variety of crops under various normal growing 

conditions. However, testing all crop varieties, in all mixtures and combinations is not feasible. Prior to 

treating entire crop, test a small portion of the crop for sensitivity. 

. 

GROUND AND AERIAL APPLICATIONS

Apply TRIPLE CROWN in ground and aerial equipment with quantities of water sufficient to provide thorough 

coverage of infested plant parts. The amount of water needed per acre will depend upon crop development, 

weather, application equipment, and local experience. 

Do not spray when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for use. 

Avoiding spray drift is the responsibility of the applicator. 

Mixing directions

Important – Do not add TRIPLE CROWN to the mix tank before introducing the desired amount of water. Add 

water to the mix tank. Start the mechanical or hydraulic agitation to provide moderate circulation before adding 

TRIPLE CROWN. Add the desired volume of TRIPLE CROWN to the mix tank and continue circulation. 

Maintain circulation while loading and spraying. Do not mix more TRIPLE CROWN than can be used in 24 

hours. Use a strainer no finer than 50 mesh in conventional spray systems.

Spray volume 

For conventional air and ground applications, use at least 10 gallons of total volume per acre in water-based 

sprays. 

Tank mixing

Do not combine TRIPLE CROWN in the spray tank with other pesticides, surfactants, adjuvants, or fertilizers if 

there has been no previous experience or use of the combination to show it is physically compatible, effective, 

or non-injurious under your use conditions. Observe the most restrictive of the labeling limitations and 

precautions of all products used in mixtures.

To ensure compatibility of tank-mix combinations, they must be evaluated prior to use. To determine the 

physical compatibility of this product with other products, use a jar test. Using a quart jar, add the 

proportionate amounts of the products to one quart of water with agitation. Add dry formulations first, then 

flowables, then emulsifiable concentrates last. After thoroughly mixing, let this mixture stand for 5 minutes. If 

the combination remains mixed or can be readily be remixed, it is physically compatible. Once compatibility 

has been proven, use the same procedure for adding required ingredients to the spray tank.

CHEMIGATION USE DIRECTIONS

Apply this product only through sprinkler irrigation systems, including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side 

(wheel) roll, traveler, big gun, solid set, or hand move systems. Do not apply this product through any other 

type of irrigation system. Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for 

pesticide applications to a public water system. 

Spray preparation

First, prepare a suspension of TRIPLE CROWN in a mix tank. Fill the mix tank with 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 of the amount of 

water needed for the area to be treated. Start mechanical or hydraulic agitation. Add the required amount of 
TRIPLE CROWN; EPA Reg. No. (pending as File Symbol 84059-RN)

MASTER LABEL – Version (4) dated July 20, 2011

Page 5 of 16

TRIPLE CROWN, and then the remaining volume of water. Then set the sprinkler to deliver a minimum of 0.1 

to 0.3 inch of water per acre. Start sprinkler and uniformly inject the suspension of TRIPLE CROWN into the 

irrigation water line so as to deliver the desired rate of TRIPLE CROWN per acre. Inject the suspension of 

TRIPLE CROWN with a positive displacement pump into the main line ahead of a right angle turn to ensure 

adequate mixing. TRIPLE CROWN is to be metered continuously for the duration of the water application. If 

you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment

manufacturers or other experts.

Do not combine TRIPLE CROWN with pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers for application through chemigation 

equipment unless prior experience has shown the combination physically compatible, effective and noninjurious under conditions of use. 

TRIPLE CROWN has not been fully evaluated for compatibility with all adjuvants or surfactants. To ensure 

compatibility of adjuvants and surfactants, they must be evaluated prior to use. To determine the physical 

compatibility of this product with other products, use a jar test. Using a quart jar, add the proportionate 

amounts of the products to one quart of water with agitation. Add dry formulations first, then flowables, then 

emulsifiable concentrates last. After thoroughly mixing, let this mixture stand for 5 minutes. If the combination 

remains mixed or can be readily be remixed, it is physically compatible. Once compatibility has been proven, 

use the same procedure for adding required ingredients to the spray tank.

.

Instructions for applications through sprinkler irrigation systems

Maintain continuous agitation in the mix tank during mixing and application to ensure a uniform suspension. 

Greater accuracy in calibration and distribution will be achieved by injecting a larger volume for a more dilute 

solution per unit time. Crop injury or lack of effectiveness can result from non-uniform distribution of treated 

water. A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the 

supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should 

the need arise. Allow sufficient time for pesticide to be flushed through all lines and all nozzles before turning 

off irrigation waters.

The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately 

located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow. 

The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the 

flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.

The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on 

the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being 

withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.

The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump 

when the water pump stops.

The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch, which will stop the water pump 

motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.

Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) 

effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being 

fitted with a system interlock.

Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment, when system connections 

or fittings leak, when nozzles do not provide uniform distribution or when lines containing the product must be 

dismantled and drained.

AERIAL DRIFT REDUCTION INFORMATION

GENERAL: 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 these factors when making decisions. Where states have more 

stringent regulations, they should be observed. 

BUFFER ZONE FOR AERIAL APPLICATION: Do not apply within 150 feet of aquatic habitats (such as, but 

not limited to, lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams, marshes, ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish ponds).

INFORMATION ON DROPLET SIZE: Use only medium or coarser spray nozzles according to ASAE (S572) 

definition for standard nozzles. In conditions of low humidity and high temperatures, applicators should use a 

coarser droplet size. The most effective way to reduce drift potential is to apply large droplets. The best drift 

management strategy is to apply the largest droplets that will provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying 

larger droplets reduces drift potential, but will not prevent drift if applications are made improperly or under 

unfavorable environmental conditions (see Wind, Temperature and Humidity, and Temperature Inversions).

CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE: Volume - Use high flow rate nozzles to apply the highest practical spray 

volume. Nozzles with higher rated flows produce larger droplets. Pressure - Do not exceed the nozzle 

manufacturer's specified pressures. For many nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When 

high flow rates are needed, use higher flow rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure. Number of Nozzles -

Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage. Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so 

that the spray is released parallel to the airstream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is the 

recommended practice. Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift 

potential. Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most nozzle 

types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low-drift nozzles. Solid stream nozzles 

oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and the lowest drift. 

BOOM WIDTH: For aerial applications, the boom width must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of the 

rotary blade. 

APPLICATION HEIGHT: Do not make application at a height greater than 10 feet above the top of the largest 

plants unless a greater height is required for aircraft safety. Making applications at the lowest height that is 

safe reduces exposure to droplets to evaporation and wind. If application includes a no-spray zone, do not 

release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the ground or crop canopy.

SWATH ADJUSTMENT: When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced 

downward. Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applicator must compensate for this 

displacement by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind. Swath adjustment distance should increase with 

increasing drift potential (higher wind, smaller drops, etc.).

WIND: Only apply this product if the wind direction favors on-target deposition. Do not apply when the wind 

velocity exceeds 15 mph. Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 2 - 10 mph. However, many factors, 

including droplet size and equipment type, determine drift potential at any given speed. Application should be 

avoided below 2 mph due to variable wind direction and high inversion potential. NOTE: Local terrain can 

influence wind patterns. Every applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and how they affect spray 

drift.

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY: When making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to 

produce larger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe when conditions 

are both hot and dry.
TRIPLE CROWN; EPA Reg. No. (pending as File Symbol 84059-RN)

MASTER LABEL – Version (4) dated July 20, 2011

Page 7 of 16

TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS: Do not apply during a temperature inversion because drift potential is high. 

Temperature inversions restrict vertical air mixing, which causes small, suspended droplets to remain in a 

concentrated cloud. This cloud can move in unpredictable directions due to the light, variable winds common 

during inversions. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperatures with altitude and are 

common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. They begin to form as the sun sets and often 

continue into the morning. Their presence can be indicated by ground fog; however, if fog is not present, 

inversions can also be identified by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke 

generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates 

an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing.

SENSITIVE AREAS: The pesticide should only be applied when the potential for drift to adjacent, sensitive 

areas (e.g. residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for threatened or endangered species, non-target 

crops) is minimal (e.g. when wind is blowing away from the sensitive areas). Do not allow spray to drift from the 

application site and contact people, structures people occupy at any time and the associated property, parks 

and recreation areas, non-target crops, aquatic and wetland areas, woodlands, pastures, rangelands, or 

animals.
