FIRST AID 

If in eyes • Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 

minutes. 

• Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then 

continue rinsing eye. 

• Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. 

If • Call a poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment 

swallowed advice. 

• Have person sip a glass of water ~ able to swallow. 

• Do not induce vomiting unless told to do so by the poison control 

center or doctor. 

• Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. 

If on skin • Take off contaminated clothing. 

or • Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes. 

clothing: • Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. 

If inhaled • Move person to fresh air 

• If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give 

artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to mouth if possible. 

• Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice. 

HOT LINE NUMBER 

Have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or 

doctor, or going for treatment. You may also contact Chemtrec at 1-800-424-9300 

for emergency medical treatment information. 

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN 

Early signs of intoxication include dilation of pupils, muscular incoordination, and 

muscular tremors. Toxicity following accidental ingestion of this product can be 

minimized by early administration of chemical adsorbents (e.g., activated charcoal). 

If toxicity from exposure has progressed to cause severe vomiting, the extent of 

resultant fluid and electrolyte imbalance should be gauged. Appropriate supportive 

parental fluid replacement therapy should be given, along with other required 

supportive measures (such as maintenance of blood pressure levels and proper 

respiratory functionality) as indicated by clinical signs, symptoms, and 

measurements. 

In severe cases, observations should continue for at least several days until clinical 

condition is stable and normal. Since abamectin is believed to enhance GABA, , . , , 

activity in animals, it is probably wise to avoid drugs that enhance GABA activity: : : : 

(barbiturates, benzodiazepines, valproic acid) in patients with potentially toxic ,

IMPORTANT - READ BEFORE USE 

Read the entire Directions for Use, Limited Warranty and Disclaimer before 

using this product. 

If terms are not acceptable, return the unopened product container at once. By 

using this product, user or buyer accepts the following warranty disclaimer, 

inherent risks of use and limitation of remedies. 

FAILURE TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS ON THIS LABEL 

MAY RESULT IN CROP INJURY, POOR INSECT CONTROL, AND/OR 

ILLEGAL RESIDUES. 

INFORMATION 

Abamectin O.15EC is an EC formulation and is to be diluted with water prior to 

use. Abamectin O.15EC controls leafminers and mites and suppresses 

whiteflies, thrips and aphids on the ornamental species listed on this label. 

Resistance Management 

Abamectin O.15EC is an insecticide/miticide and some target pests may develop 

resistance to Abamectin O.15EC treatments. Use resistance management 

practices when using Abamec!in O.15EC on plants that are hosts of labeled 

pests that have more than one generation per crop or year. Typical strategies 

include, but are not limited to, rotation to other insecticides with different modes 

of action, treatment of successive generations with different prod ucts, 

applications made at specified label rates and at specified spray intervals, and 

the use of non-chemical alternatives (for example, beneficial arthropods or 

rotation of susceptible to non-susceptible plants). Contact your State 

Cooperative Extension Service for additional information on these or other 

resistance management strategies. 

To manage susceptibility in Liriomyza leafminer species, make up to three 

applications of Abamectin O.15EC and then rotate to Citation® Insec!icide (which 

contains the active ingredient cyromazine) for no more than three applications 

before rotating back to Abamec!in O.15EC or using another insecticide. 

Alternating between these two products which have different modes of action 

should be based on the generation of Liriomyza species to avoid applying 

Abamec!in O.15EC to successive generations.

Plant Tolerance 

Although Abamectin 0.15EC has been tested for tolerance on a variety of 

ornamental plants, it is not possible to test Abamectin 0.15EC under all application 

conditions, such as when Abamectin 0.15EC is applied with combination products 

or with surfactants or adjuvants. Test a small area of plants for phytotoxicity to 

Abamectin 0.15EC before making applications to large blocks of plants. 

Phytotoxicity has been observed after the use of Abamectin 0.15EC on certain 

species of ferns (e.g., Adiantum spp.) and Shasta Daisy (L. eucanthemum spp.). 

Source Dynamics LLC does not recommend the use of Abamectin 0.15EC on ferns 

or Shasta Daisy. 

Restrictions 

• Do not use Abamectin 0.15EC for suppression of aphids, whiteflies, and thrips 

on roses, chrysanthemums, and gerbera. These ornamentals are primary 

hosts of mites and Liriomyza leafminers and Abamectin 0.15EC applications 

should target these insect pests. Additional applications of Abamectin 0.15EC 

to suppress aphids, thrips, and whiteflies on these plants will increase the 

selection pressure on mites and Liriomyza leafminers which may result in greater 

tolerance of these pests to Abamectin 0.15EC. 

• Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system. 

• Do not apply by air. 

• To manage resistance do not use in citrus nurseries. 

• Do not apply less than 8.0 ft oz or more than 16 fl oz per acre. 

ORNAMENTALS - CROP USE DIRECTIONS 

TARGET CROPS 

Shadehouse, Greenhouse, Field-Grown Ornamentals, Foliage Plants, Christmas 

Trees, and other Woody Ornamentals 

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS 

Mix Abamectin 0.15EC with a sufficient amount of water. Make applications as a 

foliar spray and ensure crops receive a thorough, uniform coverage. 

Horticultural Spray Oils: For enhanced residual control of target pests on 

field-grown woody ornamentals, landscape plants, and Christmas trees, add a 

horticultural spray oil to the Abamectin 0.15 EC spay mix at 0.5 to 1.0% of the spray 

volume. To maintain control, make repeat applications as necessary at 7 days 

intervals. '" , ") ,

Some plants may be sensitive to these oils. Test a small area of plants for 

phytotoxicity to Abamectin 0.15EC mixed with horticultural spray oil. Evaluate the 

plants after 2 weeks before applying Abamectin 0.15 EC mixed with oils on a large 

number of plants. In addition, plant damage from treatment with such mixtures 

may be increased if the temperatures are very cold or very wanm. Read and follow 

directions on the spray oil label. Do not exceed the maximum rates listed on the 

label.

FIRST AID 

If in eyes • Hold eye open and rinse slowly and genlly wilh waler for 15-20 

minutes. 

• Remove contacllenses, if presenl, after the firsl 5 minules, Ihen 

continue rinsing eye. 

• Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. 

If • Call a poison control cenler or doclor immediately for Irealment 

swallowed advice. 

• Have person sip a glass ofwaler if able to swallow. 

• Do nol induce vomiting unless lold to do so by the poison control 

center or doctor. 

• Do nojgive anything by mouth 10 an unconscious person. 

If on skin • Take off contaminated clothing. 

or • Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes. 

clothing: • Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. 

If inhaled • Move person to fresh air 

• If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give 

artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to mouth if possible. 

• Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice. 

HOT LINE NUMBER 

Have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or 

doctor, or going for treatment. You may also contact Chemtrec at 1-800424-9300 

for emergency medical treatment information. 

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN 

Early signs of intoxication include dilation of pupils, muscular incoordination, and 

muscular tremors. Toxicity following accidental ingestion of this product can be 

minimized by early administration of chemical adsorbents (e.g., activated charcoal). 

If toxicity from exposure has progressed to cause severe vomiting, the extent of 

resultant fluid and electrolyte imbalance should be gauged. Appropriate supportive 

parental fluid replacement therapy should be given, along with other required 

supportive measures (such as maintenance of blood pressure levels and proper 

respiratory functionality) as indicated by clinical signs, symptoms, and 

measurements. 

In severe cases, observations should continue for at least several days until clinical 

condition is stable and normal. Since abamectin is believed to enhance GABA 

activity in animals, it is probably wise to avoid drugs that enhance GABA activity 

(barbiturates, benzodiazepines, valproic acid) in patients with potentially toxic 

abamectin exposure.

IMPORTANT - READ BEFORE USE 

Read the entire Directions for Use, Limited Warranty and Disclaimer before 

using this product. 

If terms are not acceptable, return the unopened product container at once, By 

using this product, user or buyer accepts the following warranty disclaimer, 

inherent risks of use and limitation of remedies. 

FAILURE TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS ON THIS LABEL 

MAY RESULT IN CROP INJURY, POOR INSECT CONTROL, AND/OR 

ILLEGAL RESIDUES, 

INFORMATION 

Abamec!in O.15EC is an EC formulation and is to be diluted with water prior to 

use. Abamectin O.15EC controls leafminers and mites and suppresses 

whiteflies, thrips and aphids on the ornamental species listed on this label. 

Resistance Management 

Abamectin O.15EC is an insecticide/miticide and some target pests may develop 

resistance to Abamectin O.15EC treatments. Use resistance management 

practices when using Abamectin O.15EC on plants that are hosts of labeled 

pests that have more than one generation per crop or year. Typical strategies 

include, but are not limited to, rotation to other insecticides with different modes 

of action, treatment of successive generations with different products, 

applications made at specified label rates and at specified spray intervals, and 

the use of non-chemical alternatives (for example, beneficial arthropods or 

rotation of susceptible to non-susceptible plants). Contact your State 

Cooperative Extension Service for additional information on these or other 

resistance management strategies. 

To manage susceptibility in Liriomyza leafminer species, make up to three 

applications of Abamectin O.15EC and then rotate to Citation@ Insecticide (which 

contains the active ingredient cyromazine) for no more than three applications 

before rotating back to Abamectin O.15EC or using another insecticide. 

Alternating between these two products which have different modes of action 

should be based on the generation of Liriomyza species to avoid applying 

Abamectin O.15EC to successive generations. 

page 5 019 
22

Plant Tolerance 

Although Abamectin 0.15EC has been tested for tolerance on a variety of 

omamental plants, it is not possible to test Abamectin 0.15EC under all application 

conditions, such as when Abamectin 0.15EC is applied with combination products 

or with surfactants or adjuvants. Test a small area of plants for phytotoxicity to 

Abamectin O.15EC before making applications to large blocks of plants. 

Phytotoxicity has been observed after the use of Abamectin 0.15EC on centain 

species of ferns (e.g., Adiantum spp.) and Shasta Daisy (L. eucanthemum spp.). 

Source Dynamics LLC does not recommend the use of Abamectin 0.15EC on ferns 

or Shasta Daisy. 

Restrictions 

• Do not use Abamectin 0.15EC for suppression of aphids, whiteflies, and thrips 

on roses, chrysanthemums, and gerbera. These ornamentals are primary 

hosts of mites and Liriomyza leafminers and Abamectin 0.15EC applications 

should target these insect pests. Additional applications of Abamectin 0.15EC 

to suppress aphids, thrips, and whiteflies on these plants will increase the 

selection pressure on mites and Liriomyza leafminers which may result in greater 

tolerance of these pests to Abamectin 0.15EC. 

• Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system. 

• Do not apply by air. 

• To manage resistance do not use in citrus nurseries, 

• Do not apply less than 8.0 ft oz or more than 16 fl oz per acre. 

ORNAMENTALS - CROP USE DIRECTIONS 

TARGET CROPS 

Shadehouse, Greenhouse, Field-Grown Ornamentals, Foliage Plants, Christmas 

Trees, and other Woody Ornamentals 

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS 

Mix Abamectin 0.15EC with a sufficient amount of water. Make applications as a 

foliar spray and ensure crops receive a thorough, unifbrm coverage. 

Horticultural Spray Oils: For enhanced residual control of target pests on 

field-grown woody ornamentals, landscape plants, and Christmas trees, add a 

horticultural spray oil to the Abamectin 0.15 EC spay mix at 0.5 to 1.0% of the spray 

volume. To maintain control, make repeat applications as necessary at 7 days 

intervals. 
23

Some plants may be sensitive to these oils. Test a small area of plants for 

phytotoxicity to Abamectin 0.15EC mixed with horticultural spray oil. Evaluate the 

plants after 2 weeks before applying Abamectin 0.15 EC mixed with oils on a large 

number of plants. In addition, plant damage from treatment with such mixtures 

may be increased if the temperatures are very cold or very warm. Read and follow 

directions on the spray oil label. Do not exceed the maximum rates listed on the 

label. 

Pests Controlled at 4 fI oz Abamectin O.15EC/100 gallons: 

Mites including European Red Mite, Twospotted Spider Mite, Carmine Spider 

Mite, Southern Red Mite, Spruce Spider Mite, Tarsonemid MITes (Cyclamen

than 400 gal. of water per acre may be required. 

• Use at least 8 ft oz per acre if using less than 200 gals. 

• Use no more than 16 fl oz per acre in 400 or more gal. of water (that is, add 

2.5 ft oz Abamectin 0.15EC per 100 gals. if total spray volume is 650 gals.). 

• Apply when mites first appear. Make repeat applications as necessary to 

maintain control. 

• For Tarsonemid mites, make repeat applications to newly developing 

tissue to maintain control. 

Pests Controlled at 8 II oz Abamectin O.15EC/100 gallons: 

Uriomyza Leafminers, Boxwood Leafminer 

Application Instructions: Make applications of Abamectin 0.15EC in 100

Footnotes 

A. This consideration does not apply to PRlA applications that include a request to 

approve an inert in the fee category. For these PRIA actions, infonnation needs to be 

submitted to enable the Agency to review the inert approval request and will be a subject 

of the 21 day content screen. For other types of actions and for fragrances, the answer is 

only for the Agency's infonnation and current policies, processes, and procedures should 

be consulted. This worksheet will be updated in the future to be consistent with current 

policies. 

If brand, trade, or proprietary names are being used for some inert ingredients listed on 

the eSF, alternate names or additional infonnation on the nature of the ingredient(s) 

should be provided to allow the Agency to detennine whether the inert has been 

approved. 

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

me-too or fast track (similarlidentical) new product, R300 or A530, an application 

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

A53}. The Agency recommends that authorizations of offers to pay be submitted with 

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

C. Refer to the list of data requirements. Biopesticide applicants were advised 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.
