the colony to die and repeat if necessary. 

Carpenter Bees: Apply coarse spray to thoroughly wet 

wood surfaces where bees have been previously active or 

3 
6

to provide protection against further damage. Apply early 

in the spring to prevent bees from invading wood. When 

bees have infested wood, surface applications can help 

control embedded larvae and bees that emerge from the 

wood. 

Pantry Pests (i.e. Carpet beetle, Cigarette beetle, 

Confused flour beetle, Lesser grain borer, Red flour 

beetle, Rice weeVil, and Sawtoothed grain beetle): Apply 

to cupboards, shelving, and storage areas. Remove all 

utens'lls, uncovered foodstuffs (or any having original 

package opened), and shelf paper before making 

application. Allow treated surfaces to dry and cover 

shelves with clean paper before replacing any utensilS, 

foodstuff, or other items. Any foodstuff accidentally 

contaminated with treatment solution should be destroyed. 

Boxelder Bugs, Centipedes, Millipedes, Pill bugs, and 

Sow bugs: Apply around doors and windows ard other 

places where these pests may be found or where they 

may enter premises. Treat baseboards, storage areas, 

and other locations. Apply barrier treatments to prevent 

infestation as described below; also see Outdoor 

Surfaces Use. 

Fleas and Ticks: To control nuisance fleas and ticks (e.g. 

dog ticks) apply to kennels, yards, runs, and other areas 

where pets may frequent. To control ticks, apply using a 

coarse fan spray to vegetation brush, branches, rock 

walls, and other areas near habitation where ticks may 

harbor or frequent. Treat entire area rather than making 

spot treatments, and retreat as necessary to maintain 

control. Do not apply to pasture or cropland, and do not 

allow animals and people access to treated areas until the 

deposit has dried. Applications can begin in the spring and 

can continue until frost to control both larvae and adult 

ticks; also see Outdoor Surfaces Use. 

Cl uster Flies: Apply in late summer or early fall before 

flies are observed alighting on surfaces. Apply thoroughly 

on siding, under eaves, and around windows and doors, 

paying particular attention to south-facing surfaces, but do 

not allow runoff to occur. Heavy precipitation prior to frost 

may reqUire retreatments to maintain protection. In winter 

and spring when flies become active and are emerging, 

interior crack and crevice and void treatments can help 

reduce the infestation, along with ULV or general surface 

application in infested attics or unoccupied lofts. 

Litter Beetles (Darkling, Hide, and Carrion Beetles) 

and Flies in Animal Housing (Such as Poultry 

Houses): To control adult litter beetles, apply KENDO 

PRO 9.7 CS to walls and floors at cleanout, before 

reintroducflon of animals. This will suppress beetles that 

escaped earlier treatment and win help delay onset of 

future infestations. Pay attention to a(eas where beetles 

frequently occur, such as walls, supports, cages, stalls, 

and around feeders. To help control flies, apply a directed 

application to horizontal surfaces and overhead areas and 

allow to dry before reintroduction of animals; also see

applications are not a sUbstitute for mechanical alteration 

to control subterranean termites, soil treatment labeled 

termiticide, or fumigation for extensive infestation of 

drywood termites or other wood-infesting insects, but are 

considered supplemental. This product is not 

recommended as sole protection against termites. For 

active termite infestations, get a professional inspection. 

For cockroaches, the recommended rate for maintenance treatments is 0.015% and for clean-out treatments 

is 0.03%. For control of severe infestations, use 0,06% rate.

severe and lor populations are high. 

6For clean-out! severe infestations, use 0.06% rate. 

ApplicatIon Within Food Handling Establishments 

For places other than private residences in which exposed food is held, processed, prepared, or served 

including, but not limited to, areas for receivlng, storage, packing (canning, bottling, wrapping, boxing), 

preparing foods, edible waste storage and enclosed processing systems (mills, dairies, edible oils, sYllJps), 

and serving areas. 

Use as a crack and crevice or spot treatment in and around both food and nonfood areas. Apply in small 

amounts directly into cracks and crevices, using equipment capable of delivering a pin stream of insecticide, in 

points between different elements of construction, between equipment and floor, openings leading to voids and 

hollow spaces in walls, equipment and bases. Food contact surfaces and equipment should be cleaned with 

an effective cleaning compound and rinsed with potable water before using. 

Limit individual spot treatments to an area no larger than 20% of the treated surface. Individual spot 

treatments may not exceed two sq. ft. Take extreme care that the product is not introduced into the air. 

Avoid contamination of food and food processing surfaces. 

Application Within Food Serving Areas 

For facilities where foods are served, such as dining rOoms. Apply as a crack and crevice or spot treatment to 

selective surfaces such as baseboards, under elements of construction, and into cracks and crevices. Avoid 

treating surfaces likely to be contacted by food. (Do not apply when facility is in operation or foods are 

exposed.) Food must be covered or removed in area being treated. Do not apply directly to food or allow 

applications to contaminate food. 

NOTE: Application of this product in the Food Areas and/or Food Serving Areas of Food Handling 

Establishments other than as a spot andlor crack and crevice treatment is not permitted. Use of application 

equipment such as the Micro-Injector or Actisol applicator in food areas should be limited to crack and 

crevice treatment only. 

livestock/Poultry Housing Structures and Pet Kennels 

Apply as a general surface (including directed sprays) and/or crack and crevice treatment. Make interior and 

exterior perimeter applications in and around the livestock, poultry, and pet housing structures. Normal 

cleaning of the structure must also be done along with applications of KEN DO PRO 9.7 CS to effectively 

control the crawling and flying insect pests listed in the table. 

KEN DO PRO 9.7 CS may be used in unoccupied areas, except cattle and calves, of livestock barns or 

housing structures. Apply to floors, vertical, and overhead surfaces where crawling or flying insect pests are or 

may be present. Feeders, waterers, and feed carts should be covered before application to prevent 

contamination. Do not apply to milk rooms or feed rooms. Pay attention to animal areas including stanchions, 

pipes, windows and doors, and areas where insect pests hide or congregate. Exterior applications to south 

facing walls and foundation perimeters can help prevent interior infestations of flying and crawling insect pests. 

For poultry houses, apply to floor area (birds grown on litter) or to walls, posts, and cage framing (birds 

grown in cages). Application should also be made into cracks and crevices around insulation. Reapply after 

5

each growout or sanitization procedure. Indoor control can be enhanced by making perimeter treatments 

around the outside of building foundations to prevent immigrating adult beetles. Apply in a uniform band 1 - 3 

ft. up and 2 - 6 ft. out from foundation. Maintaining a year-round treatment program will prevent background 

populations from reaching problem levels. 

RESTRICTIONS: 

• DO NOT make applications of KENDO PRO 9.7 CS in areas where animals, except cattle and calves, are 

present in the facility. Allow treated surfaces to completely dry before restocking the facility. 

• DO NOT make applications to any animal feedstuffs, water, or watering equipment. 

• DO NOT contaminate any animal food, feed, or water in and around livestock, poultry, or pet housing when 

making applications. 

Outdoor Surfaces Use 

For control of ants, bees, centipedes, cockroaches, crickets, fleas, fiies, millipedes, mosquitoes, 

scorpions, sowbugs, pillbugs, spiders, termites* (above ground only), ticks, wasps, and other similar 

perimeter arthropod pests. 

Apply with either hand or power application equipment as a residual treatment to ornamental plants next to 

foundations of buildings and to surfaces of buildings, porches, screens, window frames, eaves, patios, 

garages, refuse dumps, and other similar areas where these insect pests are active. Remove all exposed food 

and cooking utensils. Cover all food handling surfaces or wash thoroughly after treatment and before use. Do 

not use on edible crops. 

Perimeter Treatments 

Apply a continual band of insecticide around building foundations and around windows, doors, service line 

entrances, eaves, vents, and other areas to reduce the potential for entry by crawling pests. Before application, 

remove debris and leaf litter from next to the foundation, cut back vegetation and branches that touch the 

foundation, and move or rake back rocks, deep mulch, or other potential pest harborage next to the 

foundation. Apply the band up to 10ft. wide around the structure (or according to state regulations governing 

commercial pest control) and upwards along the foundation to 3 ft. and around windows, doors, and roof 

overhangs. Apply as a coarse spray to thoroughly and uniformly wet the foundation and/or band area so that 

the insecticide will reach the soil or thatch level where pests may be active. 

Amount of concentrate is dependent upon pest species (see pest table and comments), infestation levels, and 

service interval desired.

dilution can be calculated with the following formula: 

mL needed to add times 9.7% active in concentrate, div'rded by gal. finished dilution times 3785 mLlgal. = % 

active in dilution. (Example: 4 oz. in 50 gal. is 120 mL times 9.7 equals 1164, and 50 gal. times 3785 is 

189250. Dividing 1164 by 189250 equals 0.006% acflve in the tank diJuflon.) 

NOTE: Do not use water base sprays of KEN DO PRO 9.7 es in conduits, motor housings, junction boxes, 

switch boxes, or other electrical equipment because of possible shock hazard. Thoroughly wash out sprayer 

and screen with water and detergent before USing KENDO PRO 9.7 es. KENDO PRO 9.7 es has not stained 

or caused damage to painted or varnished surfaces, plastics, fabrics, or other surfaces where water applied 

alone causes no damage. However, treat a small area and allow to dry, to determine whether staining will 

occur.

of water. Thoroughly soak each mound and a 3 

ft. diameter circle around each mound. Gently 

apply the mixture to avoid disturbing the mound. 

Disturbing the mound may cause the ants to 

migrate and reduce the effectiveness of the 

treatment. Apply in early morning or late evening 

hours. You may make applications on a monthly 

basis to maintain protection of treated areas. 

Mosquito Control: Apply as a general spray

*Example: To treat the listed turf pests at the 7 mL per 1,000 sq. ft. rate, determine the gallons of dilution per 

1,000 sq. ft. needed to adequately cover the turf. At a 5 gallon per 1,000 sq. ft. dilution, take the 7 mL and 

divide it by the 5 (gallon) to get 1.4. mL to be added per gallon. For a 50 gallon tank, therefore, this would be 

1.4. mL X 50 = 70 mL (or 2.5. oz) in 50 gallons water.

as KENDO 9.7 CS does not provide instant knockdown. 

Spider Mites (Two~spotted, Protective equipment for the applicator may be required. 

Spruce) Treat bee, wasp and hornet nests late in the day when 

Ticks6 most insects will be present. Allow 2~3 days for the coJony 

to die and repeat after 21 days, if necessary. 

Carpenter Bees: Apply coarse spray to thoroughly wet 

wood surtaces where bees have been previously active or 

to provide protection against further damage. Apply early 

in the spring to prevent bees from invading wood. When 

bees have infested wood, surface applications can help 

control embedded larvae and bees that emerge from the 

wood. 

Pantry Pests (i.e. Carpet beetle, Cigarette beetle, 

Confused flour beetJe, Lesser grain borer, Red flour 

beetle, Rice weevil, and Sawtoothed grain beetJe): Apply 

to cupboards, shelving, and storage areas. Remove all 

utensils, uncovered foodstuffs (or any having original 

package opened), and shelf paper before making 

application. Allow treated surtaces to dry and cover 

shelves with clean paper before replacing any utensils, 

foodstuff, or other items. Any foodstuff accidentally 

contaminated with treatment solution should be destroyed. 

Boxelder Bugs, Centipedes, Millipedes, PIli bugs, and 

Sowbugs: Apply around doors and windows and other 

places where these pests may be found or where they 

may enter premises. Treat baseboards, storage areas, 

and other locations. Apply treatments to prevent 

infestation as described below; also see Outdoor 

Surfaces Use. 

Fleas and Ticks: To control nuisance fleas and ticks (e.g. 

dog ticks) apply to kennels, yards, runs, and other areas 

where pets may frequent. To control ticks, apply using a 

coarse fan spray to vegetation brush, branches, rock 

walls, and other areas near habitation where ticks may 

harbor or frequent. Treat entire area rather than making 

spot treatments, and retreat as necessary to maintain 

control. Do not apply to pasture or cropland, and do not 

allow animals and people access to treated areas until the 

deposit has dried. Applications can begin in the spring and 

can continue until frost to control both larvae and adult 

ticks; also see Outdoor Surfaces Use.

Cluster Flies: Apply in late summer or early fall before 

flies are observed alighting on surfaces, Apply thoroughly 

on siding, under eaves, and around windows and doors, 

pay'rng particular attention to south-facing surfaces, but do 

not allow runoff to occur. Heavy precipitation prior to frost 

may require retreatments to maintain protection. In winter 

and spring when flies become active and are emerging, 

interior crack and crevice and void treatments can help 

reduce the infestation, along with ULV or general surface 

application in infested attics or unoccupied lofts. 

Litter Beetles (Darkling, Hide, and Carrion Beetles) 

and Flies in Animal Housing (Such as Poultry 

Houses): To control adult litter beetles, apply KENDO 9.7 

CS to walls and floors at cleanout, before reintroduction of 

animals. This will suppress beetles that escaped earlier 

treatment and will help delay onset of future infestat'rons, 

Pay attention to areas where beetfes frequently occur, 

such as walls, supports, cages, stalls, and around feeders. 

To help control flies, apply a directed application 10 

horizontal surfaces and overhead areas and allow to dry 

before reintroduction of animals; also see LivestockI 

Poultry Housing Structures and pet Kennels. 

KENDO 9.7 CS may be used on termites to kill workers or 

winged reproduction forms which may be present in 

treated channels at the time of treatment. These 

applications are not a substitute for mechanical alteration 

to control subterranean termites, soif treatment labeled 

termiticide, or fumigation for extensive lnfestation of 

drywood termites or other wood-infesting insects, but are 

considered supplemental. This product is not 

recommended as sole protection against termites. For 

active termite infestations, Qet a professional inspection.

Application Within Food Handling Establishments 

For places other than private residences in which exposed food is held, processed, prepared, or served 

including, but not limited to, areas for receiving, storage, packing (canning, bottling, wrapping, boxing), 

preparing foods, edible waste storage and enclosed processing systems (mifls, dairies, edible oilS, syrups), 

and serving areas. 

Use as a crack and crevice or spot treatment in and around both food and nonfood areas. Apply in small 

amounts directly into cracks and crevices, using equipment capable of delivering a pin stream of insecticide, in 

pOints between different elements of construction, between equipment and floor, openings leading to voids and 

hollow spaces in walls, equipment and bases. Food contact surfaces and equipment should be cleaned with 

an effective cleaning compound and rinsed with potable water before using. 

Limit individual spot treatments to an area no larger than 20% of the treated surface. Individual spot 

treatments may not exceed two sq. ft. Take extreme care that the product is not introduced into the air. 

Avoid contamination of food and food processing surfaces.

23

Application Within Food Serving Areas 

For facilities where foods are served, such as dining rooms. Apply as a crack and crevice or spot treatment to 

selective surfaces such as baseboards, under elements of construction, and into cracks and crevices. Avoid 

treating surfaces likely to be contacted by food. (Do not apply when facility is in operation or foods are 

exposed.) Food must be covered or removed in area being treated. Do not apply directly to food or allow 

applications to contaminate food. 

NOTE: Application of this product in the Food Areas and/or Food Serving Areas of Food Handling 

Establishments other than as a spot and/or crack and crevice treatment is not permitted. Use of application 

equipment such as the Micro-Injector or Actisol applicator in food areas should be limited to crack and 

crevice treatment only. 

LivestocklP·oultry Housing structures and Pet Kennels 

Apply as a general surface (induding directed sprays) and/or crack and crevice treatment. Make interior and 

exterior perimeter applications in and around the livestOCk, poultry, and pet housing structures. Normal 

cleaning of the structure must also be done along with applications of KEN DO 9.7 CS to effectively control the 

crawling and flying insect pests listed in the table. 

With the exception of cattle and calves that may be present only apply KENDO 9.7 CS to livestock 

barns or housing structrues when unoccupied by animals. Apply to floors, vertical, and overhead surfaces 

where crawling or flying insect pests are or may be present. Feeders, waterers, and feed carts should be 

covered before application to prevent contamination. Do not apply to milk rooms or feed rooms. Pay attention 

to animal areas including stanchions, pipes, windows and doors, and areas where insect pests hide or 

congregate. Exterior applications to south facing walls and foundation perimeters can help prevent interior 

infestations of flying and crawling insect pests. 

For poultry houses, apply to floor area (birds grown on litter) or to walls, posts, and cage framing (birds 

grown in cages). Application should also be made into cracks and crevices around insulation. Reapply after 

each growout or sanitization procedure. Indoor control can be enhanced by making perimeter treatments 

around the outside of building foundations to prevent immigrating adult beetles. Apply in a uniform band 1 - 3 

ft. up and 2 - 6 ft. out from foundation. Maintaining a year-round treatment program will prevent background 

populations from reaching problem levels. 

RESTRICTIONS: 

• DO NOT make applications of KENDO 9.7 CS in areas where animals, except cattle and calves, are present 

in the facility. Allow treated surfaces to completely dry before restocking the facility. 

• DO NOT make applications to any animal feedstuffs, water, or watering equipment. 

• DO NOT contaminate any animal food, feed, or water in and around livestock, pOUltry, or pet housing when 

making applications. 

Outdoor Surfaces Use 

For control of ants, bees, centipedes, cockroaches, crickets, fleas, flies, millipedes, mosquitoes, 

scorpions, sowbugs, piUbugs, spiders, termites* (above ground only), ticks, wasps, and other similar 

perimeter arthropod pests. 

Apply with either hand or power application equipment as a residual treatment to ornamental plants next to 

·foundations of buildings and to surfaces of buildings, porches, screens, window frames, eaves, patios, 

garages, refuse dumps, and other similar areas where these insect pests are active. Remove all exposed food 

and cooking utensils. Cover all food handling surfaces or wash thoroughly after treatment and before use. Do 

not use on edible crops. 

Perimeter Treatments 

Apply a continual band of insecticide around building foundations and around windows, doors, service line 

entrances, eaves, vents, and other areas to reduce the potential for entry by crawling pests. Before application, 

remove debris and leaf litter from next to the foundation, cut back vegetation and branches that touch the 

foundation, and move or rake back rocks, deep mulch, or other potential pest harborage next to the 

foundation. Apply the band up to 10ft. wide around the structure (or according to state regulations goveming 

commercial pest control) and upwards along the foundation to 3 ft. and around windows, doors, and roof 

overhangs. Apply as a coarse spray to thoroughly and uniformly wet the foundation and/or band area so that 

7

the insecticide wifl reach the soil or thatch level where pests may be active. 

Amount of concentrate is dependent upon pest species (see pest table and comments), infestation levels, and 

service interval desired.

Example calCUlation: to apply the mid-rate of KENDO 9.7 CS at a volume of 5 gal.!1000 sq. ft., mix 4 oz of 

concentrate in 50 gallons of water. The percent active ingredient in the finished KENDO 9.7 CS dilution can 

be calculated with the following formula: 

mL needed to add times 9.7% active in concentrate, divided by gal. finished dilution times 3785 mUgal. = % 

active in dilution. (Example: 4 oz. in 50 gal. is 120 mL times 9.7 equals 1164, and 50 gal. times 3785 is 

189250. Dividing 1164 by 189250 equals 0.006% active in the tank dilution.) 

NOTE: Do not use water based sprays of KEN DO 9.7 CS in conduits, motor housings, junction boxes, switch 

boxes, or other electrical equipment because of possible shock hazard. Thoroughly wash out sprayer and 

screen with water and detergent before using KENDO 9.7 CS. KEN DO 9.7 CS has not stained or caused 

damage to painted or varnished surfaces, plastics, fabrics, or other surfaces where water applied alone causes 

no damage. However, treat a small area and allow to dry, to determine whether staining will occur.

1,000 sq. ft. The use of a non ionic wetting agent, 

penetrant or similar adjuvant is recommended at 

label rates. Lightly irrigate after application with 

up to 112 inch of water to move the KENDO 9.7 

CS into the thatch layer. If irrigation is not 

available, then use high water application rates. 

Subsurface Insect Control (mole crickets, 

grubs, etc.): Apply KENDO 9.7 CS at 

recommended rates in 4 - 10 gals. of water per 

1,000 sq. ft. The use of a non ionic wetting agent, 

penetrant or similar adjuvant is strongly 

recommended following label rates. Use the 

highest water application rates possible with 

your sprayer. Apply KENDO 9.7 CS to turf wet 

with dew, rain or irrigation. Water-in immediately 

after application with X - Z2 inch of water. 

Fire Ant Control: Treat individual mounds with 

a drench application using a watering can. Use 

0.5 fl. oz. of KENDO 9.7 CS per 2.5 gals. of 

water. Thoroughly soak each mound and a 3 ft. 

diameter cirde around each mound. Gently 

apply the mixture to avoid disturbing the mound. 

Disturbing the mound may cause the ants to 

migrate and reduce the effectiveness of the 

treatment. Apply in early moming or late evening 

hours. You may make applications on a monthly 

basis to maintain protection of treated areas. 

Mosquito Control: Apply as a general spray 

around landscape planflngs, turf, and building 

foundations to control mosquitoes. Apply 

KENDO 9.7 CS at recommended rates in 2 - 5 

gals. of water p~r 1,000 s;q. ft. 

*Example: To treat the listed turf pests at the 7 mL per 1,000 sq. ft. rate, determine the gallons of dilution per 

1,000 sq. ft. needed to adequately cover the turf. At a 5 gallon per 1,000 sq. ft. dilution, take the 7 mL and 

divide it by the 5 (gallon) to get 1.4. mL to be added per gallon. For a 50 gaUon tank, therefore, this would be 

1.4. mL X 50 = 70 mL (or 2.5. oz} in 50 gallons water.

Spiders6 

as KEN DO 9.7 CS does not provide instant knockdown. 

Spider Mites (Two-spotted, Protective equipment for the applicator may be required. 

Spruce) Treat bee, wasp and hornet nests late in the day when 

Ticks6 most insects will be present. Allow 2-3 days for the colony 

to die and repeat after 21 days, if necessary. 

Carpenter Bees: Apply coarse spray to thoroughly wet 

wood surfaces where bees have been previously active or 

to provide protection against further damage. Apply early 

in the spring to prevent bees from invading wood. When 

bees have infested wood, surface applications can help 

control embedded larvae and bees that emerge from the 

wood. 

Pantry Pests (i.e. Carpet beetle, Cigarette beetle, 

Confused flour beetle, Lesser grain borer, Red flour 

beetle, Rice weevil, and Sawtoothed grain beetle): Apply 

to cupboards, shelving, and storage areas. Remove all 

utensils, uncovered foodstuffs (or any having original 

package opened), and shelf paper before making 

application. Allow treated surfaces to dry and cover 

shelves with clean paper before replacing any utensils, 

fOOdstuff, or other items. Any foodstuff accidentally 

contaminated with treatment soluflon should be destroyed. 

Boxelder Bugs, Centipedes, Millipedes, Pillbugs, and 

Sowbugs: Apply around doors and windows and other 

places where these pests may be found or where they 

may enter premises. Treat baseboards, storage areas, 

and other locations. Apply treatments to prevent 

infestation as described below; also see Outdoor 

Surfaces Use. 

Fleas and Ticks: To control nuisance fleas and ticks (e.g. 

dog ticks) apply to kennels, yards, runs, and other areas 

where pets may frequent. To control ticks, apply using a 

coarse fan spray to vegetation brush, branches, rock 

wallS, and other areas near habitation where ticks may 

harbor or frequent. Treat entire area rather than making 

spot treatments, and retreat as necessary to maintain 

control. Do not apply to pasture or cropland, and do not 

allow animals and people access to treated areas until the 

deposit has dried. Applications can begin in the spring and 

can continue until frost to control both larvae and adult 

ticks; also see Outdoor Surfaces Use.

Cluster Flies: Apply in late summer or early fall before 

flies are observed alighting on surfaces. Apply thoroughly 

on siding, under eaves, and around windows and doors, 

paying particular attention to south-facing surfaces, but do 

not allow runoff to occur. Heavy precipitation prior to frost 

may require retreatments to maintain protection. In winter 

and spring when flies become active and are emerging, 

interior crack and crevice and void treatments can help 

reduce the infestation, along with ULV or general surface 

application in infested attics or unoccupied lofts. 

Litter Beetles (Darkling, Hide, and Carrion Beetles) 

and Flies in Animal Housing (Such as Poultry 

Houses): To control adult litter beetles, apply KENDO 9.7 

CS to walls and floors at cleanout, before reintroduction of 

animals. This will suppress beetles that escaped earlier 

treatment and will help delay onset of future infestations. 

Pay attention to areas where beetles frequently occur, 

such as walls, supports, cages, stalls, and around feeders. 

To help control flies, apply a directed application to 

horizontal surfaces and ovemead areas and allow to dry 

before reintroduction of animals; also see Livestock! 

Poultry Housing Structures and pet Kennels. 

KENDO 9,1 CS may be used on termites to kill workers or 

winged reproduction forms which may be present in 

treated channels at the time of treatment. These 

applications are not a substitute for mechanical alteration 

to control subterranean termites, soil treatment labeled 

termiticide, or fumigation for extensive infestation of 

drywood termites or other wood-infesting insects, but are 

considered supplemental. This product is not 

recommended as sole protection against termites. For 

active termite infestations, aet a orofessional inspection. 

For cockroaches, the recommended rate for maintenance treatments is 0.015% and for clean-out treatments 

is 0.03% . For control of severe infestations, use 0.06% rate. 

2For outdoor use only and use 0.03% rate. 

3For control of LIGHT beetle infestations, use 0.03% rate. 

4For residual control, use 0.06% rate 

sin all states except California, rates for flies may be increased to 0.06% when environmental conditions are 

severe and lor populations are high. 

6For clean-ouU severe infestations, use 0.06% rate. 

Application Within Food Handling Establishments 

For places other than private residences in which exposed food is held, processed, prepared, or served 

including, but not limited to, areas for receiving, storage, packing (canning, bottling, wrapping, boxing), 

preparing foods, edible waste storage and enclosed processing systems (mills, dairies, edible oils, syrups), 

and serving areas. 

Use as a crack and crevice or spot treatment in and around both food and nonfood areas. Apply in small 

amounts directly into cracks and crevices, using equipment capable of delivering a pin stream of insecticide, in 

points between different elements of construction, between equipment and floor, openi"ngs leading to voids and 

hollow spaces in walls, equipment and bases. Food contact surfaces and equipment should be cleaned with 

an effective cleaning compound and rinsed with potable water before using. 

Limit individual spot treatments to an area no larger than 20% of the treated surface. Individual spot 

treatments may not exceed two sq. ft. Take extreme care that the product is not introduced into the air. 

Avoid contamination of food and food processing surfaces. 

6 
37

Application Within Food Serving Areas 

For facilities where foods are served, such as dining rooms. Apply as a crack and crevice or spot treatment to 

selective surfaces such as baseboards, under elements of construction, and into cracks and crevices. Avoid 

treating surfaces likely to be contacted by food. (Do not apply when facility is in operation or foods are 

exposed.) Food must be covered or removed in area being treated. Do not apply directly to food or allow 

applications to contaminate food. 

NOTE: Application of this product in the Food Areas and/or Food Serving Areas of Food Handling 

Establishments other than as a spot and/or crack and crevice treatment is not permitted. Use of application 

equipment such as the Micro-Injector or Actisol applicator in food areas should be limited to crack and 

crevice treatment only. 

livestock/Poultry Housing Structures and Pet Kennels 

Apply as a general surface (inctuding directed sprays) and/or crack and crevice treatment. Make interior and 

exterior perimeter applications in and around the livestock, poultry, and pet housing structures. Normal 

cleaning of the structure must also be done along with applications of KENDO 9.7 CS to effectively control the 

crawling and flying insect pests listed in the table. 

With the exception of cattle and calves that may be present only apply KENDO 9.7 CS to livestock 

barns or housing structrues when unoccupied by animals. Apply to floors, vertical, and overhead surfaces 

where crawling or flying insect pests are or may be present. Feeders, waterers, and feed carts should be 

covered before application to prevent contamination. Do not apply to milk rooms or feed rooms. Pay attention 

to animal areas including stanchions, pipes, windows and doors, and areas where insect pests hide or 

congregate. Exterior applications to south facing walls and foundation perimeters can help prevent interior 

infestations of flying and crawling insect pests. 

For poultry houses, apply to floor area (birds grown on litter) or to walls, posts, and cage framing (birds 

grown in cages). Application should also be made into cracks and crevices around insulation. Reapply after 

each growout or sanitization procedure. Indoor control can be enhanced by making perimeter treatments 

around the outside of building foundations to prevent immigrating adult beetles. Apply in a uniform band 1 - 3 

ft. up and 2 - 6 ft. out from foundation. Maintaining a year-round treatment program will prevent background 

populations from reaching problem levels. 

RESTRICTIONS: 

• DO NOT make applications of KENDO 9.7 CS in areas where animals, except cattle and calves, are present 

in the facility. Allow treated surfaces to completely dry before restocking the facility. 

• DO NOT make applications to any animal feedstuffs, water, or watering equipment. 

• DO NOT contaminate any animal food, feed, or water in and around livestOCk, poultry, or pet housing when 

making applications. 

Outdoor Surfaces Use 

For control of ants, bees, centipedes, cockroaches, crickets, fleas, flies, millipedes, mosquitoes, 

scorpions, sowbugs, piUbugs, spiders, termites* (above ground only), ticks, wasps, and other similar 

perimeter arthropod pests. 

Apply with either hand or power application equipment as a residual treatment to ornamental plants next to 

foundations of buildings and to surfaces of buildings, porches, screens, window frames, eaves, patios, 

garages, refuse dumps, and other similar areas where these insect pests are active. Remove all exposed food 

and cooking utensils. Cover all food handling surfaces or wash thoroughly after treatment and before use. Do 

not use on edible crops. 

Perimeter Treatments 

Apply a continual band of insecticide around building foundations and around windows, doors, service line 

entrances, eaves, vents, and other areas to reduce the potential for entry by crawling pests. Before application, 

remove debris and leaf litter from next to the foundation, cut back vegetation and branches that touch the 

foundation, and move or rake back rocks, deep mulch, or other potential pest harborage next to the 

foundation. Apply the band up to 10 ft. wide around the structure (or according to state regulations governing 

commercial pest control) and upwards along the foundation to 3 ft. and around windows, doors, and roof 

overhangs. Apply as a coarse spray to thoroughly and uniformly wet the foundation and/or band area so that 

7 
38

the insecticide will reach the soil or thatch level where pests may be active. 

Amount of concentrate is dependent upon pest species (see pest table and comments), infestation levels, and 

service interval desired.

Example calculation: to apply the mid~rate of KENDO 9.7 CS at a volume of 5 gal./1 000 sq. ft., mix 4 oz of 

concentrate in 50 gallons of water. The percent active ingredient in the finished KENDO 9.7 CS dilution can 

be calculated with the following formula: 

mL needed to add times 9.7% active in concentrate, divided by gal. finished dilution times 3785 mLfgal. = % 

active in dilution. (Example: 4 oz. in 50 gal. is 120 mL times 9.7 equals 1164, and 50 gal. rimes 3785 is 

189250. Dividing 1164 by 189250 equals 0.006% active in the tank dilution.) 

NOTE: Do not use water based sprays of KENDO 9.7 CS in conduits, motor housings, junction boxes, switch 

boxes, or other electrical equipment because of possible shock hazard. Thoroughly wash out sprayer and 

screen with water and detergent before using KENDO 9.7 CS. KENDO 9.7 CS has not stained or caused 

damage to painted or varnished surfaces, plastics, fabrics, or other surfaces where water applied alone causes 

no damage. However, treat a small area and allow to dry, to determine whether staining wHI occur.

necessary under normal conditions for surface 

insect control in turf. Delay watering or mowing 

for 12 - 24 hours to control surface-feeding 

insect pests. 

Thatch Inhabiting Insect Control (chinch 

bugs, billbugs.·etc.): Apply KENDO 9.7 CS at 

recommended rates in 2 - 10 gals. of water per 

1,000 sq. ft. The use of a nonionic wetting agent, 

penetrant or Similar adjuvant is recommended at 

label rates. lightly irrigate after appication W'lth 

up to 112 inch of water to move the KENDO 9,7 

CS into the thatch layer. If irrigalion is not 

available, then use high water application rates. 

Subsurface Insect Control (mole crickets, 

grubs, etc.): Apply KENDO 9.7 cs at 

recommended rates in 4 - 10 gals. of water per 

1,000 sq. ft. The use of a nontonic wetting agent, 

penetrant or similar adjuvant is strongly 

recommended following label rates. Use the 

h'lghest water application rates possible with 

your sprayer. Apply KENDO 9.7 CS to turf wet 

with dew, rain or irrigation. Water-in Immediately 

after application with "'/4 - ~ inch of water. 

Fire Ant Control: Treat individual mounds with 

a drench appHcation using a watering can. Use 

0.5 fl. oz. of KENDO 9.7 CS per 2.5 gals. of 

water. Thoroughly soak each mound and a 3 ft. 

diameter circle around each mound. Gently 

apply the mixture to avoid disturbing the mound. 

Disturbing the mound may cause the ants to 

migrate and reduce the effectiveness of the 

treatment. Apply in early moming or late evening 

hours. You may make applications on a monthly 

basis to maintain protection of treated areas. 

Mosquito Control: Apply as a general spray 

around landscape plantings, turf, and buifding 

foundations to control mosquitoes. Apply 

KENDO 9,7 CS at recommended rates In 2 - 5 

oals. of wate!:.J)er 1 ,000 SQ. ft. 

*Example: To treat the listed turf pests at the 7 mL per 1,000 sq. ft. rate, determine the gallons of dilution per 

1,000 sq. ft needed to adequately cover the turf. At a 5 gallon per 1 ,000 sq. ft dilution, take the 7 ml and 

divide it by the 5 (gallon) to get 1.4. mL to be added per gaHon. For a 50 gallon tank, therefore, this would be 

1.4. ml X 50 = 70 mL (or 2.5. oz) in 50 gallons water.

the colony to die and repeat if necessary. 

Carpenter Bees: Apply coarse spray to thoroughly wet 

wood surfaces where bees have been orevious!Lactive or 

3 
50

to provide protection against further damage. Apply early 

in the spring to prevent bees from invading wood. When 

bees have infested wood, surface applications can help 

control embedded larvae and bees that emerge from the 

wood. 

Pantry Pests (I.e. Carpet beetle, Cigarette beetle, 

Confused flour beetle, Lesser grain borer, Red flour 

beetle, Rice weevil, and Sawtoothed grain beetle): Apply 

to cupboards, shelving, and storage areas. Remove all 

utensils, uncovered foodstuffs (or any having original 

package opened), and shelf paper before making 

application. Allow treated surfaces to dry and cover 

shelves with clean paper before replacing any utensils, 

fooostuff, or other items. Any foodstuff accidentally 

contaminated with treatment solution should be destroyed. 

Boxelder Bugs, Centipedes, Millipedes, Pi!lbugs, and 

Sowbugs: Apply around doors and windows and other 

places where these pests may be found or where they 

may enter premises. Treat baseboards, storage areas, 

and other locations. Apply barrier treatments to prevent 

infestation as described below; also see Outdoor 

Surfaces Use. 

Fleas and Ticks: To control nuisance fleas and ticks (e.g. 

dog ticks) apply to kennels, yards, runs, and other areas 

where pets may frequent. To control ticks, apply using a 

coarse fan spray to vegetation brUSh, branches, rock 

walls, and other areas near habitation where ticks may 

harbor or frequent. Treat entire area rather than making 

spot treatments, and retreat as necessary to maintain 

control. Do not apply to pasture or cropland, and do' not 

allow animals and people access to treated areas until the 

deposit has dried. Applications can begin in the spring and 

can continue until frost to control both larvae and adult 

ticks; also see Outdoor Surfaces Use. 

Cluster Flies: Apply in late summer or early fall before 

flies are observed alighting on surfaces. Apply thoroughly 

on siding, under eaves, and around windows and doors, 

paying particular attention to south-facing surfaces, but do 

not allow runoff to occur. Heavy precipitation prior to frost 

may require retreatments to maintain protection. In winter 

and spring when flies become active and are emerging, 

interior crack and crevice and void treatments can help 

reduce the infestation, along with ULV or general surface 

application in infested attics or unoccupied lofts. 

Litter Beetles (Darkling, Hide, and Carrion Beetles) 

and Flies in Animal Housing (Such as Poultry 

Houses): To control adult litter beetles, apply KEN DO 

PRO 9.7 CS to walls and floors at cleanout, before 

reintroduction of animals. This will suppress beetles that 

escaped earlier treatment and will help delay onset of 

future infestations. Pay attention to areas where beetles 

frequently occur, such as walls, supports, cages, stalls, 

and around feeders. To help control flies, apply a directed 

application to horizontal surfaces and overhead areas and 

allow to dry before reintroduction of animals; also see 

Livestock! POUltry Housing Structures and pet

Termites (above ground 0.8 fl. oz. KENDO PRO 9.7 CS may be used on termites to kill 

only) (24 mL) per workers or winged reproduction forms which may be 

gallon of water present in treated channels at the time of treatment. These 

applications are not a substitute for mechanical alteration 

to control subterranean termites, soil treatment labeled 

termiticide, or fum'lgation for extensive infestation of 

drywood termites or other wood-infesting insects, but are 

considered supplemental. This product is not 

recommended as sale protection against termites. For 

active termite infestations, !=let a professional inspection. 

For cockroaches, the recommended rate for maintenance treatments is 0.015% and for clean-out treatments 

is 0.03% . For control of severe infestations, use 0.06% rate. 

2For outdoor use only and use 0.03% rate. 

3For control of LIGHT beetle infestations, use 0.03% rate. 

4For residual control, use 0.06% rate 

sin all states except California, rates for flies may be increased to 0.06% when environmental conditions are 

severe and lor populations are high. 

6For clean-out! severe infestations, use 0.06% rate. 

Application Within Food Handling Establishments 

For places other than private residences in which exposed food is held, processed, prepared, or served 

including, but not limited to, areas for receiving, storage, packing (canning, bottling, wrapping, boxing), 

preparing foods, edible waste storage and enclosed processing systems (mills, dairies, edible oils, syrups), 

and serving areas. 

Use as a crack and crevice or spot treatment in and around both food and nonfood areas. Apply in small 

amounts directly into cracks and crevices, using equipment capable of delivering a pin stream of insecticide, in 

points between different elements of construction, between equipment and floor, openings leading to voids and 

hollow spaces in walls, eqUipment and bases. Food contact surfaces and eqUipment should be cleaned with 

an effective cleaning compound and rinsed with potable water before using. 

Limit individual spot treatments to an area no larger than 20% of the treated surface. Individual spot 

treatments may not exceed two sq. ft. Take extreme care that the product is not introduced into the air. 

Avoid contamination of food and food processing surfaces. 

Application Within Food Serving Areas 

For facilities where foods are served, such as dining rooms. Apply as a crack and crevice or spot treatment to 

selective surfaces such as baseboards, under elements of construction, and into cracks and crevices. Avoid 

treating surfaces likely to be contacted by food. (Do not apply when facility is in operation or foods are 

exposed.) Food must be covered or removed in area being treated. Do not apply directly to food or allow 

applications to contaminate food. 

NOTE: Application of this product in the Food Areas and/or Food Serving Areas of Food Handling 

Establishments other than as a spot and/or crack and crevice treatment is not permitted. Use of application 

equipment such as the Micro-Injector or Actisol applicator in food areas should be limited to crack and 

crevice treatment only. 

Livestock/Poultry Housing Structures and Pet Kennels 

Apply as a general surface (including directed sprays) and/or crack and crevice treatment. Make interior and 

exterior perimeter applications in and around the livestock, poultry, and pet housing structures. Normal 

cleaning of the structure must also be done along with applications of KEN DO PRO 9.7 CS to effectively 

control the crawling and flying insect pests listed in the table. 

KEN DO PRO 9.7 CS may be used in unoccupied areas, except cattle and calves, of livestock barns or 

housing structures. Apply to floors, vertical, and overhead surfaces where crawling or flying insect pests are or 

may be present. Feeders, waterers, and feed carts should be covered before application to prevent 

contamination. Do not apply to milk rooms or feed rooms. Pay attention to animal areas including stanchions, 

pipes, windows and doors, and areas where insect pests hide or congregate. Exterior applications to south 

facing walls and foundation perimeters can help prevent interior infestations of flying and crawling insect pests. 

For poultry houses, apply to floor area (birds grown on litter) or to walls, posts, and cage framing (birds 

grown in cages). Application should also be made into cracks and crevices around insulation. Reapply after 

5 
52

each growout or sanitization procedure. Indoor control can be enhanced by making perimeter treatments 

around the outside of building foundations to prevent immigrating adult beetles. Apply in a uniform band 1 - 3 

ft. up and 2 - 6 ft. out from foundation. Maintaining a year-round treatment program will prevent background 

populations from reaching problem levels. 

RESTRICTIONS: 

• DO NOT make applications of KENDO PRO 9.7 CS in areas where animals, except cattle and calves, are 

present in the facility. Allow treated surfaces to completely dry before restocking the facility. 

• DO NOT make applications to any animal feedstuffs, water, or watering equipment. 

• DO NOT contaminate any animal food, feed, or water in and around livestock, poultry, or pet housing when 

making applications. 

Outdoor Surfaces Use 

For control of ants, bees, centipedes, cockroaches, crickets, fleas, flies, millipedes, mosquitoes, 

scorpions, sowbugs, pillbugs, spiders, termites* (above ground only), ticks, wasps, and other similar 

perimeter arthropod pests. 

Apply with either hand or power application equipment as a residual treatment to omamental plants next to 

foundations of buildings and to surfaces of buildings, porches, screens, window frames, eaves, patios, 

garages, refuse dumps, and other similar areas where these insect pests are active. Remove all exposed food 

and cooking utensils. Cover all food handling surfaces or wash thoroughly after treatment and before use. Do 

not use on edible crops. 

Perimeter Treatments 

Apply a continual band of insecticide around building foundations and around windows, doors, service line 

entrances, eaves, vents, and other areas to reduce the potential for entry by crawling pests. Before application, 

remove debris and leaf litter from next to the foundation, cut back vegetation and branches that touch the 

foundation, and move or rake back rocks, deep mulch, or other potential pest harborage next to the 

foundation. Apply the band up to 10 ft. wide around the structure (or according to state regulations goveming 

commercial pest control) and upwards along the foundation to 3 ft. and around windows, doors, and roof 

overhangs. Apply as a coarse spray to thoroughly and uniformly wet the foundation and/or band area so that 

the insecticide will reach the soil or thatch level where pests may be active. 

Amount of concentrate is dependent upon pest species (see pest table and comments), infestation levels, and 

service interval desired.

Example calculation: to apply the midHrate of KEN DO PRO 9.7 CS at a volume of 5 gal.l1 000 sq. ft., mix 4 

oz of concentrate in 50 gallons of water. The percent active ingredient in the finished KENDO PRO 9.7 CS 

dilution can be calculated with the following formula: 

mL needed to add times 9.7% active in concentrate, divided by gal. finished dilution times 3785 mL/gaL = % 

active in dilution. (Example: 4 oz. in 50 gal. is 120 mL times 9.7 equals 1164, and 50 gal. times 3785 is 

189250. Dividing 1164 by 189250 equals 0.006% active in the tank dilut10n.) 

NOTE: Do not use water base sprays of KENDO PRO 9.7 CS in conduits, motor housings, junction boxes, 

switch boxes, or other electrical equipment because of possible shock hazard. Thoroughly wash out sprayer 

and screen with water and detergent before using KEN DO PRO 9.7 CS. KENOO PRO 9.7 CS has not stained 

or caused damage to painted or varnished surfaces, plastics, fabrics, or other surfaces where water applied 

alone causes no damage. However, treat a small area and allow to dry, to determine whether stain'lng will 

occur.

a drench application using a watering can. Use 

0.5 fl. oz. of KENDO PRO 9.7 CS per2.5 gals. 

of water. Thoroughly soak each mound and a 3 

ft. diameter circle around each mound. Gently 

apply the mixture to avoid disturbing the mound. 

Disturbing the mound may cause the ants to 

migrate and reduce the effectiveness of the 

treatment. Apply in early morning or late evening 

hours. You may make applications on a monthly 

basis to maintain protection of treated areas. 

Mosquito Control: Apply as a general spray 

around landscape plantings, turf, and building 

foundations to control mosquitoes. Apply 

KENDO PRO 9.7 CS at recommended rates in 2

Not for use on mature adult mole crickets and chinch bugs in New York State 

*Example: To treat the listed turf pests at the 7 mL per 1 ,000 sq. ft. rate, determine the gallons of dilution per 

1,000 sq. ft. needed to adequately cover the turf. At a 5 gallon per 1,000 sq. ft. dilution, take the 7 mL and 

divide it by the 5 (gallon) to get 1.4. mL to be added per gallon. For a 50 gallon tank, therefore, this would be

A. During the 21 day initial content review, all CSFs will be reviewed to determine 

whether all inerts listed, including fragrances, are approved for the proposed useS. If an 

unapproved inelt is identified, the applicant must either 1) resolve the inert issue by, for 

example, removing the inert, substituting it with an approved inelt, submitting 

documentation that EPA approved the inelt for the proposed pesticidal uses, correcting 

mistakes on the eSF, etc. or 2) provide the data to support OPP approval of the inelt or 3) 

withdraw the application. Removing or substituting an inert ingredient will require a new 

eSF and may require submission of data. All infonnation., forms, data and 

documentation resolving the inert issue must have been received by the Agency or the 

application withdrawn within the 21 day period, otherwise, the Agency will reject the 

application as described below. 

To successfully complete this aspect of the 21 day initial content screen, applicants are 

strongly encouraged to verify that all inert ingredients have been approved for the 

application's uses even if a product is currently registered by consulting the inert Web

site [link to http://www.epa.gov/opprdOOllinerts/lists.html] and if the inert is not 

approved, to obtain the necessary inert approval prior to submitting an application 

to register a pesticide product containing that inert ingredient. Some inert 

ingredients are no longer approved for food uses or certain types of uses. The name 

and/or CAS number on a CSF must match the name and CAS number on this web site. 

Simple typographical errors in the name or CAS number have resulted in processing 

delays. 

If an inert is not listed on the inert ingredient web site and the applicant believes that the 

inert has been approved, the applicant should contact the Inert Ingredient Assessment 

Branch (IIAB) at inertsbranch@epa.govand resolve the issue. Copies of the 

correspondence with IIAB resolving the issue should accompany the application. All 

new inerts except PIP inerts are reviewed by IIAB. The IIAB should also be contacted 

for any questions on what supporting data needs to be submitted for and the Agency's 

inert review process. Questions on PIP inerts should be directed to the Chief of 

Microbial Pesticides Branch [Link to 

http://www.epa.gov/oppbppdl/biopesticides/contactsbppd.htm ]. 

When a brand, trade, or proprietary name of an inert ingredient is listed on a CSF, 

additional information such as an alternate name of the inert, CAS number or other 

information [link to http://wwvv.epa.gov/opprdOOIlinerts/tips.pdfl must also be included 

to enable the Agency to determine if it has been approved. Each component of an inert 

mixture (including a fragrance) must be identified. In some cases, the supplier of the 

mixture or fragrance may need to provide this information to the Agency. Prior to the 

Agency's receipt of an application, applicants must arrange with a proprietary mixture or 

fragrance supplier to provide the component information to the Agency or promptly upon 

EPA's request. If the inert ingredients in a proprietary blend (including fragrances) 

cannot or are not identified or provided within the 21-day content review period, the 

Agency will reject the application. 

During the 21 day content review, applicants should submit information to the individual 

identified by the Agency when the applicant is informed of an unapproved inert. 

Unapproved Inerts Identified on CSFs 

All applications except conventional new products and PIPs 

Once an unapproved inert is identified on a CSF, the Agency will contact the 

applicant with the following options: 

I. Correct the application by, for instance, correcting the inert's identity or CAS 

number, providing documentation that the inert has been approved, or 

removing the unapproved inert from the CSF or replacing it with one that is 

approved for the application's uses; or 

2. Submit the information and data needed for the Agency to approve the 

unapproved inert. If this option is selected and implemented, the Agency may 

request an extension in the PRIA decision review timeframe to accommodate 

the inert review/approval process; 

4 
67

3. Withdraw the application (the Agency retains 25% of the full fee for the fee 

category estimated); or 

Ifnone of these options is selected and implemented by the applicant within the 

21 day content review period, the Agency will reject the application and retain 

25% of the full fee of the category identified. 

Conventional New Product Applications 

When the Registration Division identifies an unapproved inert on a CSF with an 

application for a new product that the applicant has not identified as requiring an 

inert approval (R311, R312 or R313), it will contact the applicant with the 

following options: 

1. Correct the application by, for instance, correcting the inert's identity or CAS 

number, providing documentation that the inert has been approved, or 

removing the unapproved inert from the CSF or replacing it with one that is 

approved for the application's uses; or 

2. Submit the information and data needed for the Agency to approve the 

unapproved inert, including any required petition to establish or amend a 

tolerance or exemption from a tolerance. (This option may change the PRIA 

category for the application, which could require a longer decision review 

time and a larger fee. If additional fees are due, they must be received by the 

Agency within the 21 day content review period.) 

3. Withdraw the application (the Agency retains 25% of the full fee for the fee 

category estimated); or 

If none of the above options is selected and implemented during the 21-day 

content-review period, the Agency will reject the application and retain 25% of 

the appropriate fee for the new product-inert approval category. 

PIP Applications 

When the Biopesticide and Pollution Prevention Division identifies an 

unapproved inert on a PIP CSF and a request to approve the inert does not 

accompany the application, it will contact the applicant with the following 

options: 

1. Correct the application by, for instance, correcting the spelling or name of the 

inert to that in 40 CFR 174, or providing documentation that the inert has been 

approved; or 

2. Submit the infonnation and data needed for the Agency to approve the 

unapproved inert. If an inert ingredient tolerance exemption petition is 

required, the petition must be received by the Agency and the B903 fee paid 

within the 21 day period. If this option is selected and implemented, the 

Agency will discuss harmonizing the timeframe for both actions. 

5 
68

3. Withdraw the application (the Agency retains 25% of the full fee for the fee 

category estimated); or 

Ifnone of the above options is selected and implemented during the 21 day 

content review period, the Agency will reject the application and retain 25% of 

the fee. 

B. A policy on documentation of offers to pay is still being developed, however, for a 

me-too or fast track (similar/identical) new product, R300 or A530, an application 

without the necessary authorizations of offers to pay will be placed into either R301 or 

A531. The Agency recommends that authorizations of offers to pay be submitted with 

other PRlA applications to avoid delays in the Agency's decision. 

C. Biopesticide applicants are advist;::d to contact the Agency and discuss study waivers 

prior to submitting their application to the Agency. Documentation of such discussions 

should be submitted with the study waiver.
