PRODUCT INFORMATION

GRANDEVOTM is a biological insecticide/miticide containing fermentation solids of Chromobacterium 

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

the Directions for Use section. GRANDEVOTM functions primarily as a stomach poison for use in the 
GrandevoTM; EPA Reg. No. 84059-

MASTER LABEL - Label version (14) dated December 1, 2011

Page 6 of 44

control or suppression of many foliar-feeding pests, including caterpillars, foliage-feeding coleopteran, 

aphids, whiteflies and plant-sucking mites infesting labeled crops. GRANDEVOTM must be mixed with 

water and applied as a foliar spray with ground or aerial equipment equipped for conventional insecticide 

spraying or by chemigation. 

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

USE INSTRUCTIONS

GRANDEVOTM 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. GRANDEVOTM 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. Use the lower label rates of 

GRANDEVOTM when populations are low and when tank-mixing with other insecticides/miticides. Use 

the higher rates or GRANDEVOTM when applied stand-alone, when populations are high or when egg 

numbers are high. 

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

targeted crop use, to enhance adhesion of GRANDEVOTM to the crop.

GRANDEVOTM 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 GRANDEVOTM 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 GRANDEVOTM 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 GRANDEVOTM. Add the desired volume of GRANDEVOTM to the mix tank and continue 
GrandevoTM; EPA Reg. No. 84059-

MASTER LABEL - Label version (14) dated December 1, 2011

Page 7 of 44

circulation. Maintain circulation while loading and spraying. Do not mix more GRANDEVOTM 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 waterbased sprays. 

Tank mixing

Do not combine GRANDEVOTM 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 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 GRANDEVOTM in a mix tank. Fill tank 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 of the amount of water for 

the area to be treated. Start mechanical or hydraulic agitation. Add the required amount of 

GRANDEVOTM, 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 GRANDEVOTM

into the irrigation water line so as to deliver the desired rate of GRANDEVOTM per acre. Inject the 

suspension of GRANDEVOTM with a positive displacement pump into the main line ahead of a right 

angle turn to ensure adequate mixing. GRANDEVOTM 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 GRANDEVOTM with pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers for application through 

chemigation equipment unless prior experience has shown the combination to be physically compatible, 

effective and non-injurious under conditions of use. 

GRANDEVOTM 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, 
GrandevoTM; EPA Reg. No. 84059-

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 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.
GrandevoTM; EPA Reg. No. 84059-

MASTER LABEL - Label version (14) dated December 1, 2011

Page 9 of 44

Do not apply directly to 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

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

of the rotary blade. 

- 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. 

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.
GrandevoTM; EPA Reg. No. 84059-

MASTER LABEL - Label version (14) dated December 1, 2011

Page 10 of 44

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.

material. Discontinue flow of the GRANDEVOTM mixture and let the system continue to run 

only as necessary to purge the line with fresh water. Let the GRANDEVOTM solution remain in 

the root zone of the crop. 

SEED TREATMENT USE DIRECTIONS

GRANDEVOTM can be applied as a seed dressing for suppression of insect damage. GRANDEVOTM

may be applied as a water-based slurry with other registered seed treatment insecticides and fungicides 

through standard slurry- or mist-type commercial seed treatment equipment. 

Mixing instructions: Prepare no more mixture than is required for the immediate operation. Agitate the 

solution continuously during mixing and application. Mechanical mixing is recommended for proper 

mixing of GRANDEVOTM mixtures. 

GRANDEVOTM alone: Add 1⁄2 of the required amount of water to the mix tank. With the agitator 

running, add the GRANDEVOTM to the mix tank. Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the 

water. Begin application of the solution after the GRANDEVOTM has completely dispersed into the mix 

water. Maintain agitation until all the mixture has been applied.

GRANDEVOTM + tank-mixtures: Add 1⁄2 of the required amount of water to the mix tank. Start the 

agitation before adding any tank mix partners. In general, tank-mix partners should be added in this 

order: wettable powders, dry flowable formulations, liquid flowable formulations, and emulsifiable 

formulations. Always allow each tank-mix partner to become completely dispersed before adding the 

next component. Maintain continuous agitation until all components have been dispersed and throughout 

the application process.

Note: When using GRANDEVOTM in tank-mixtures, all products in water soluble packaging should be 

added to the tank before any other tank-mix partner, including GRANDEVOTM. Allow the water-soluble 

packaging to completely dissolve and the product(s) to completely disperse before adding any other tankmix partner to the tank.
GrandevoTM; EPA Reg. No. 84059-

MASTER LABEL - Label version (14) dated December 1, 2011

Page 13 of 44

If using GRANDEVOTM in a tank mixture with other seed treatment products, observe all directions for 

use, crops/sites, use rates, dilution ratios, precautions, and limitations which appear on the tank-mix 

partner label. No label dosage may be exceeded and the most restrictive label precautions and limitations 

must be followed. This product should not be mixed with any product which prohibits such mixing.

Note: Federal law requires that bags containing treated seeds shall be labeled with the following 

information: “This seed has been treated with GRANDEVOTM insecticide. Do not use for food, feed, or 

oil purposes. Store away from feed and foodstuffs.” Treated seed bagged for later use must contain 

an EPA-approved dye or colorant that imparts an unnatural color to the seed.

SOIL TREATMENT USE DIRECTIONS

GRANDEVOTM can be applied by soil drench, in-furrow spray, or soil injection to protect against certain 

soil-borne insects or nematodes.

In general, GRANDEVOTM can be applied by the following methods, unless specified differently in the 

SELECTED CROPS section:

Soil Drench Applications:

Apply GRANDEVOTM at a concentration of 2-6 pounds per 100 to 150 gallons of water, and at a 

sufficient rate to thoroughly soak the growing media and root zone. Multiple drench applications can be 

made on a 10 -14 day interval.

Shanked-In and Injected Applications:

GRANDEVOTM at a concentration of 2 – 6 pounds per 100 – 150 gallons of water, can be shanked-in or 

injected into the soil alone, or with most types of liquid nutrients.

In-Furrow Applications:

At planting, apply GRANDEVOTM as an in-furrow spray or as a 5-7 inch band (T-band) over an open 

furrow at the rate of 2 - 6 pounds per acre or 1.8-7.35 ounces per 1000 feet of row according to the chart 

below. Apply GRANDEVOTM in 20 to 50 gallons of water so as the spray is directed over the seed furrow 

just before the seeds are covered.

PRODUCT INFORMATION

GRANDEVOTM is a biological insecticide/miticide containing fermentation solids of Chromobacterium 

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

the Directions for Use section. GRANDEVOTM 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. GRANDEVOTM must be mixed with 

water and applied as a foliar spray with ground or aerial equipment equipped for conventional insecticide 

spraying or by chemigation. 

GRANDEVOTM can be used in either the field or greenhouse for the control of any labeled pest.
GrandevoTM; EPA Reg. No. 84059-

MASTER LABEL - Label version (14) dated December 1, 2011

Page 35 of 44

USE INSTRUCTIONS

GRANDEVOTM 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. GRANDEVOTM 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. Use the lower label rates of 

GRANDEVOTM when populations are low and when tank-mixing with other insecticides/miticides. Use 

the higher rates or GRANDEVOTM when applied stand-alone, when populations are high or when egg 

numbers are high. 

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

targeted crop use, to enhance adhesion of GRANDEVOTM to the crop.

GRANDEVOTM 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

See AERIAL APPLICATION section for aerial application use directions.

See CHEMIGATION section for chemigation use directions.

See PRE-PLANT DIP section for pre-plant dip use directions.

See SEED TREATMENT section for seed treatment use directions.

See SOIL TREATMENT section for soil application use directions.

GRANDEVOTM alone: Add 1⁄2 of the required amount of water to the mix tank. With the agitator 

running, add the GRANDEVOTM Concentrate to the mix tank. Continue agitation while adding the 

remainder of the water. Begin application of the solution after the GRANDEVOTM has completely 

dispersed into the mix water. Maintain agitation until all the mixture has been applied.

GRANDEVOTM + tankmixtures: Add 1⁄2 - 3⁄4 of the required amount of water to the mix tank. Start the agitation before adding 

any tank mix partners. In general, tank-mix partners should be added in this order: wettable powders, dry 

flowable formulations, such as GRANDEVOTM, liquid flowable formulations, and emulsifiable 

formulations. Always allow each tank-mix partner to become completely dispersed before adding the 

next component. Maintain continuous agitation until all components have been dispersed and throughout 

the application process. After all components are completely dispersed add the remainder of the water. 

GRANDEVOTM cannot be mixed with another product with a prohibition against mixing. Use of the tank 
GrandevoTM; EPA Reg. No. 84059-

MASTER LABEL - Label version (14) dated December 1, 2011

Page 36 of 44

mix must be in accordance with the more restrictive label limitations and precautions. Do not pre-mix 

GRANDEVOTM with any other tank-mix component prior to adding to the spray tank.

Compatibility: Do not combine GRANDEVOTM in the spray tank with pesticides, adjuvants, or fertilizers 

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

effective, and non-injurious under your use conditions.

GRANDEVOTM is compatible with many commonly used pesticides, fertilizers, adjuvants, and 

surfactants, but has not been evaluated with all potential combinations. To ensure compatibility of the 

tank mix combinations, evaluate prior to use as follows: Using a suitable container, add the proportional 

amounts of product to water. Add wettable powders first, then water dispersible granules, then liquid 

flowables, and lastly, emulsifiable concentrates. Mix thoroughly and let stand for at least five minutes. If 

the combination stays mixed or can be remixed, it is physically compatible. Test the mix on a small 

portion of the crop to be treated to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of the 

application.
