APPLICATION NOTES: Reapply as needed based on insect monitoring and field scouting programs. The use of approved stickers is encouraged for improved adherence to

the plant surface s and protection from rainfall. In the event of rain, re treatment is encouraged if approved stickers are not used. This product is not recommended in fields with overhead irrigation. This product only af fects adult males and will have no effect on females, eggs or immatures. Vine mealybug females may overwinter after being mated. It

is encoura ged to treat with in secticide treatments that will effec tively control hatching immatures until egg laying by previously mated fe males has ceased to oc cur. In moderate to high insect pressure situations, supplemental in secticide applications during t he season

can prove neces sary to provide adequate protection to the de vel oping crop. These supple

mental insecticide ap plications should be made based on trap monitoring, field scouting, and appropriate de gree

- day models for the local growing area and must be timed to control emerging larvae.
