1.0 FIRST AID
FIRST AID
If swallowed • Call poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment
advice.
• Have a person sip a glass of water if 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 inhaled • Move person to fresh air.
• If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give
artificial respiration, preferably by mouth-to-mouth, if possible.
• Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment
advice.
If on skin or • Take off contaminated clothing.
clothing • Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes.
• Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
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.
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
parenteral fluid replacement therapy should be given, along with other required sup-
portive measures (such as maintenance of blood pressure levels and proper respira-
tory 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.
Have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control center or
doctor, or going for treatment.

if absorbed through the skin. Causes moderate eye irritation. Avoid contact with skin, eyes,
or clothing.

2.2 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)


All applicators and other handlers must wear:
• Long-sleeved shirt and long pants
• Chemical-resistant gloves made of barrier laminate, butyl rubber ≥ 14 mils, nitrile rubber
≥ 14 mils, neoprene rubber ≥ 14 mils, polyvinyl chloride ≥ 14 mils, or Viton® ≥ 14 mils
• Shoes plus socks

2.3 User Safety Requirements


Discard clothing and other absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contami-
nated with this product’s concentrate. DO NOT reuse them. Follow manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent
and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.

2.4 Engineering Controls


When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets the
requirements listed in the worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides (40
CFR 170.240(d)(4-6), the handler PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as speci-
fied in the WPS.
IMPORTANT: When reduced PPE is worn because a closed system is being used, handlers
must be provided all PPE specified above for “applicators and other handlers” and have such
PPE immediately available for use in an emergency, such as a spill or equipment break-down.

2.5 User Safety Recommendations


User Safety Recommendations
Users should:
• Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet.
• Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and
put on clean clothing.
• Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves
before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing.

2.6 Environmental Hazards


This pesticide is toxic to fish and wildlife. For terrestrial uses: Do not apply directly to water, to
areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark.
Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift from target areas. Do not contaminate water
when disposing of equipment wash water or rinsate.
This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or residues on blooming
crops or weeds. Do not apply product or allow it to drift to blooming crops or weeds if bees
are foraging the treatment area.
Use of this product may pose a risk to threatened and endangered species of fish, amphibians,
crustaceans (including fresh water shrimp), and insects. All use of this product in the state
of California should comply with the recommendations of the California Endangered Species
Project. Before using this product in California, consult with your county agriculture commis-
sioner to determine use limitations that apply in your area.
2.6.1 SURFACE WATER ADVISORY
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially
true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as
having a medium potential for reaching both surface water and aquatic sediment via runoff
for several weeks to months after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip
between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds,
streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of abamectin from runoff water and
sediment.
Runoff Prevention: To protect the environment, do not allow pesticide to enter or run off
into storm drains, drainage ditches, gutters or surface waters. Applying this product in calm
weather when rain is not predicted for the next 24 hours will help ensure that wind or rain does
not blow or wash pesticide off the treatment area. Rinsing application equipment over the
treated area will help avoid run off to water bodies or drainage systems.
Attention: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause
birth defects or other reproductive harm.

3.0 PRODUCT INFORMATION


Agri-Mek SC is a suspension concentrate that will control specified pests on the crops listed on
this label when the product is applied as directed by this label. Thorough coverage of foliage is
essential for good mite and insect control.
Agri-Mek SC has been tested for phytotoxicity and has a wide margin of safety on a variety of
crops. For tank mix safety refer to Section 4.4.2.
Agri-Mek SC must always be used with an adjuvant. Refer to Section 4.4.5.
Seed Treatment: Unless specifically restricted in the individual Crop Use Directions on this
label, Agri-Mek SC may be used in the same year abamectin is used as an at-plant seed
treatment.
Suppression can mean either inconsistent control (good to poor) or consistent control at a
level below that generally considered acceptable for commercial control.

3.1 Resistance Management


ABAMECTIN GROUP 6 INSECTICIDE

Some insect or mite pests are known to develop resistance to products after repeated use.
Because resistance development cannot be predicted, the use of this product should conform
to sound resistance management strategies established for the crop and use area. Syngenta
encourages responsible product stewardship to ensure effective long-term control of the insects
or mites on this label.
For resistance management, Agri-Mek SC contains a Group 6 miticide/insecticide. Any insect or
mite population may contain individuals that are inherently resistant to Agri-Mek SC and other
Group 6 miticide/insecticides. The resistant individuals may eventually dominate the insect or
mite population if this group of miticides/insecticides are used repeatedly in the same fields.
Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed.
If resistance to this product develops in your area, this product, or other products with a
similar mode of action, may not provide adequate control. If poor performance cannot be
attributed to improper application or extreme weather conditions, a resistant strain of insect
or mite may be present. If you experience difficulty with control and resistance is a reasonable
cause, immediately consult your local company representative or agricultural advisor for the
best alternative method of control for your area.
To delay insecticide resistance, take the following steps:
• Rotate the use of Agri-Mek SC or other Group 6 insecticides within a growing season, or
among growing seasons, with different groups that control the same pests.
• Use tank mixtures with insecticides from a different group that are equally effective on the
target pest when such use is permitted. Do not rely on the same mixture repeatedly for
the same pest population. Consider any known cross-resistance issues (for the targeted
pests) between the individual components of a mixture. In addition, consider the follow-
ing recommendations provided by the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC):
o Individual insecticides selected for use in mixtures should be highly effective and be
applied at the rates at which they are individually registered for use against the target
species.
o Mixtures with components having the same IRAC mode of action classification are not
recommended for insect resistance management.
o When using mixtures, consider any known cross-resistance issues between the
individual components for the targeted pest(s).
o Mixtures become less effective if resistance is already developing to one or both active
ingredients, but they may still provide pest management benefits.
o The insect resistance management benefits of an insecticide mixture are greatest if
the two components have similar periods of residual insecticidal activity. Mixtures of
insecticides with unequal periods of residual insecticide activity may offer an insect
resistance management benefit only for the period where both insecticides are active.
• Adopt an integrated pest management program for insecticide use that includes scouting,
uses historical information related to pesticide use, crop rotation, record keeping, and
which considers cultural, biological and other chemical control practices.
• Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of survival sug-
gests the presence of resistance, consult with your local university specialist or certified
pest control advisor.
• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for any additional pesti-
cide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and pest
problems in your area.
• For further information or to report suspected resistance contact your local Syngenta
representative.
3.1.1 MAINTAINING SUSCEPTIBILITY TO THESE CLASSES OF CHEMISTRY
• Avoid using Group 6 miticides/insecticides exclusively for season long control of insect or
mite species with more than one generation per crop season.
• For insect or mite species with successive or overlapping generations, apply Agri-Mek SC
or other Group 6 miticides/insecticides using a “treatment window” approach. A treatment
window is a period of time as defined by the stage of crop development and/or the biology
of the pests of concern. Within the treatment window, depending on the length of residual
activity, there may either be single or consecutive applications (seed treatment, soil, foliar,
unless otherwise stated) of the Group 6 miticides/insecticides. Do not exceed the maximum
Agri-Mek SC allowed per year.
• Following a treatment window of Group 6 miticides/insecticides, rotate to a treatment
window of effective products with a different mode of action before making additional
applications of Group 6 miticides/insecticides.
• A treatment window rotation, along with other IPM practices for the crop and use area,
is considered an effective strategy for preventing or delaying a pest’s ability to develop
resistance to these classes of chemistry.
• If resistance is suspected, do not reapply Agri-Mek SC or other Group 6 miticides/
insecticides.
3.1.2 OTHER INSECT RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT (IRM) PRACTICES
• Incorporating IPM techniques into your insect or mite control program.
• Monitoring treated insect or mite populations for loss of field efficacy.
• Using tank-mixtures or premixes with miticides/insecticides from a different target site of
action group as long as the involved products are all registered for the same crop outlet
and effective rates are applied.
3.1.3 OTHER SOURCES FOR INFORMATION ON INSECT RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
• Contact your local extension specialist, certified crop advisor and/or product manufacturer
for additional insect resistance management recommendations.
• Visit the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC) on the web at:

and/or state recommendations.
• All ground/aerial/chemigation application equipment must be properly maintained and
calibrated using appropriate carriers.
4.3 Application Volume and Spray Coverage
See Section 7.0 for additional application volume information.
• Thorough spray coverage is essential for good insect and mite control.
• Use sufficient water carrier to obtain thorough, uniform coverage.
• The highest labeled rate for a specified pest may be needed when aerial applications
are made.

4.4 Mixing Directions


1. Thoroughly clean spray equipment before using this product.
2. Prepare no more spray mixture than is needed for the immediate operation.
3. Keep product container tightly closed when not in use.
4. Agitate the spray solution before and during application.
5. Do not let the spray mixture stand overnight in the spray tank.
6. Flush the spray equipment thoroughly following each use and apply the rinsate to a
previously treated area.
4.4.1 AGRI-MEK SC ALONE
1. Fill clean spray tank 1/4 - 1/2 full of water.
2. Add Agri-Mek SC directly to the spray tank.
3. Mix thoroughly to fully disperse the insecticide/miticide. Once dispersed, continuous
agitation is required.
4. Use mechanical or hydraulic means; do not use air agitation.
5. Observe the most restrictive of the labeling limitations and precautions of all products
used in mixtures.
4.4.2 TANK-MIX PRECAUTIONS
• It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the
intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions
for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restric-
tive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
• The safety of all potential tank mixes on all crops may not have been tested. Before apply-
ing any tank mixture not specifically recommended on this label, the safety to the target
crop should be confirmed.
• Tank mixtures or other applications of products referenced on this label are permitted only
in those states in which the referenced products are labeled.
• Tank mixes of Agri-Mek SC with other pesticides, fertilizers, or any other additives not
specifically labelled for use with Agri-Mek SC may result in tank mix incompatibility or
unsatisfactory performance. In such cases, always check tank mix compatibility by
conducting a jar test according to guidance in Section 4.4.3 before actual tank mixing.
Agricultural products formulated with binder or sticker type components may reduce
performance of Agri-Mek SC.
4.4.3 TANK-MIX COMPATIBILITY
• Conduct a jar test using a 1 pt to 1 qt container with lid by adding water or other intended
carrier such a liquid fertilizer to the jar.
continued…
• Next, add the appropriate amount of pesticides(s) or tank mix partner(s) in their relative
proportions based on recommended label rates. Add tank mix components separately in
the order described in the tank-mixing section, Section 4.4.3. After each addition, shake
or stir gently to thoroughly mix.
• After all ingredients have been added, put the lid on the jar, tighten and invert the jar 10
times to mix.
• After mixing, let the mixture stand 15 – 30 minutes and then examine for signs of incom-
patibility such as obvious separation, large flakes, precipitates, gels or heavy oily film on
the jar.
• If the mixture remains mixed or can be remixed readily, it is physically compatible and
can be used.
• If the mixture is incompatible, repeat the test using a compatibility agent at the recom-
mended rate. Or, if applicable, slurry dry formulations in water before adding to the jar. If
incompatibility is still observed after following these procedures, do not use the mixture.
• After compatibility testing is complete, dispose of any pesticide wastes in accordance with
the storage and disposal section, (Section 8.0) of this label.
4.4.4 AGRI-MEK SC IN TANK MIXTURES
1. Fill the tank with 1/2 - 2/3 volume of the mixing diluent.
2. Start the agitator running before adding any tank-mix partners.
3. Add all products in water-soluble packaging to the tank before any other tank-mix partner.
Allow the water-soluble packaging to completely dissolve and the product(s) to completely
disperse before adding any other tank-mix partner to the tank.
4. In general, add tank-mix partners in this order:
a) products packaged in water-soluble packaging
b) wettable powders
c) wettable granules (dry flowables)
d) liquid flowables
e) liquids
f) emulsifiable concentrates
5. Make sure all other products are fully dispersed in the mixing diluent before adding the
recommended rate of this product to the tank.
6. Add the remainder of the mixing diluent volume.
7. It is recommended that mixing and spray equipment have continuous agitation for best
results.
8. Follow the precautions and limitations of the most restricted product in the tank mixture.
4.4.5 SPRAY ADDITIVES
• To avoid illegal crop residues, Agri-Mek SC must always be mixed with a non-phytotoxic,
non-ionic activator type wetting, spreading and/or penetrating spray adjuvant or horticul-
tural oil (not a dormant oil) unless otherwise indicated in Section 7.0.
• Non-ionic activator type wetting, spreading and/or penetrating spray adjuvants include:
o Non-ionic surfactants (NIS) with at least 75% surface active agent
o Crop oil concentrates (COC)
o Vegetable oil concentrates (VOC)
o Methylated seed/vegetable oils (MSO)
o Organosilicones (OS) with at least 15% emulsifiers/surfactants
o Blends of these non-ionic activator type spray adjuvants.
• Spray adjuvants must be compatible with Agri-Mek SC and must be used at concentra-
tions specified on the spray adjuvant product label directions for use for the targeted
crop unless more specific directions are provided in Section 7.0 for individual crops on
this label.
• Do not use binder or sticker type adjuvants because these type adjuvants may reduce
translaminar movement of the active ingredient into the plant which could result in
reduced performance.
• Syngenta recommends the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association
(CPDA) certified spray adjuvant.

4.5 Application through Irrigation Systems (Chemigation)


4.5.1 CHEMIGATION RESTRICTIONS
• Application by sprinkler irrigation (chemigation) may only be used for onion, bulb, onion,
green, and tuberous and corm (suppression of thrips).
• Sprinkler Irrigation Application Only.
• Apply Agri-Mek SC at rates and timing described elsewhere in this label. As local rec-
ommendations differ, consult your local State Extension Service or other local experts
for recommendations on adjuvant or diluent types, rates, and mixing instructions. These
recommendations should be proven, through university and extension field trials, to be
effective with Agri-Mek SC applied by chemigation.
• 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. Do not apply
this product through any other type of irrigation system.
• Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from
non-uniform distribution of treated water.
• If you have any questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service
Specialists, equipment manufacturers, or other experts.
• Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide
application to a public water system, unless the pesticide label prescribed safety devices
for public water systems are in place.
• 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.
4.5.2 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHEMIGATION
1. 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 contamina-
tion from backflow.
2. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check-
valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must also 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.
4. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the
pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment or non-
uniform distribution of treated water.
4.5.3 SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR PUBLIC WATER SYSTEMS
1. Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped water for
human consumption if such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves
an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year.
2. Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional,
reduced-pressure zone, back-flow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the
water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction. As an option to
the RPZ, the water from the public water system should be discharged into a reservoir
tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical break (air gap)
between the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of
at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe.
3. The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check
valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
4. 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.
5. The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the
pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops, or in cases where there is no
water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution
is adversely affected.
6. 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.
7. Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
4.5.4 APPLICATION DIRECTIONS FOR IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
1. Application by sprinkler irrigation (chemigation) may be used for onion, bulb, onion, green,
and tuberous and corm (suppression of thrips).
2. Apply Agri-Mek SC at rates and timing described elsewhere in this label. As local rec-
ommendations differ, consult your local State Extension Service or other local experts
for recommendations on adjuvant or diluent types, rates, and mixing instructions. These
recommendations should be proven, through university and extension field trials, to be
effective with Agri-Mek SC applied by chemigation.
3. Check the irrigation system to insure uniform application of water to all areas. Thorough
coverage of foliage is required for good control. Good agitation in the pesticide supply
tank should be maintained prior to and during the entire application period.
4. Apply by injecting the recommended rate of Agri-Mek SC into the irrigation system using
a metering device that will introduce a constant flow and by distributing the product to the
target area in 0.1 acre-inch of water. In general, use the least amount of water required for
proper distribution and coverage. It is recommended that the product be injected into the
main irrigation line ahead of a right angle turn in the line to insure adequate dispersion or
mixing in the irrigation water. Once the application is completed, flush the entire irrigation
and injection system with clean water before stopping the system.
5. In addition to the above recommendations, if application is being made during a normal
irrigation set of a stationary sprinkler, the recommended rate of Agri-Mek SC for the area
covered should be injected into the system only during the end of the irrigation set for
sufficient time to provide adequate coverage and product distribution.
5.0 ROTATIONAL CROP RESTRICTIONS
There are no rotational (plant-back) restrictions with Agri-Mek SC. Treated areas may be
replanted with any crop as soon as practical following the last application.

6.0 RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS


See Section 7.0 for crop-specific restrictions and precautions.

6.1 Use Restrictions


• DO NOT treat plants grown for transplanting. Agri-Mek SC is not for use in nurseries, plant
propagation houses, or greenhouses by commercial transplant producers on plants being
grown for transplanting.
• DO NOT use on crops grown to harvest in greenhouses unless specified in the crop use
section of this label.
• DO NOT use in residential areas or residential landscapes.
• DO NOT apply Agri-Mek SC with aircraft in New York State.
• Agri-Mek SC must always be used with an adjuvant. To avoid illegal crop residues, Agri-
Mek SC must always be mixed with a non-phytotoxic, non-ionic activator type wetting,
spreading and/or penetrating spray adjuvant or horticultural oil (not a dormant oil). Refer
to Section 4.4.5 for details.
6.2 Spray Drift Management
Important: When states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.

Spray Drift
Aerial Applications:
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative
canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
• Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. If the wind
speed is greater than 10 mph, the boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan
for fixed wing aircraft or 75% of the rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise, the boom
length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft or 90% of the rotor
diameter for helicopters.
• Applicators must use 1/2 swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Air Blast Applications:
• Sprays must be directed into the canopy.
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site
• User must turn off outward pointing nozzles at the row end and when spraying outer row.
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Ground Boom Applications:
• User must only apply with the release height recommended by the manufacturer, but
no more than 4 ft above the ground or crop canopy.
• Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceeds 15 mph at the application site.
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
6.3 Spray Drift Advisories
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT. BE
AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
6.3.1 VEGETATIVE BUFFER STRIP
• Do not apply with ground application equipment within 25 ft of or with aircraft within 150 ft of
lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, marshes, pot holes, natural ponds, estuaries, or
commercial fish farm ponds. Do not cultivate within 25 ft of the aquatic area to allow growth
of a vegetative filter strip.
6.3.2 IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
• An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets
that provide target pest control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the
potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable
environmental conditions.
• Controlling Droplet Size – Ground Boom
o Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce
spray drift. Use the highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray
volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate.
o Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the
target spray volume and droplet size.
o Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application.
Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift.
• Controlling Droplet Size – Aircraft
o Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers’ recommendations for setting up
nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with
the airflow in flight.
6.3.3 GROUND AND AERIAL APPLICATION ADVISORIES
• WIND - Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS
DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind
patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.
• TEMPERTURE AND HUMIDITY - To compensate for evaporation when applying Agri-
Mek SC in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce larger droplets. When
making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of
evaporation. Evaporation of droplets is most severe when conditions are both hot and dry.
• TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS - Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion.
Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and
are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an
inversion can be indicated by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground
source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concen-
trated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves
upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Avoid applications dur-
ing temperatures inversions.
• Do not allow this product to drift onto non-target areas. Drift may result in illegal residues
or injury to non-target species. Risk of exposure to sensitive areas can be reduced by
applying this product when the wind direction is away from the sensitive area.
• Do not apply when the weather conditions may cause drift.
o Avoid application when the temperature is high and/or the humidity is low. These
conditions increase the evaporation of spray droplets and the likelihood of drift to
aquatic areas.
6.3.4 AERIAL APPLICATION SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES
The following drift management requirements must be followed to avoid off-target movement
from aerial applications to agricultural field crops.
• Nozzle Direction - Nozzles must always point backward parallel with the air stream and
never be pointed downwards more than 45 degrees.
• Nozzle Orientation - Orienting nozzles so that the spray is released parallel to the air
stream produces larger droplets than other orientations and is the recommended practice.
Significant deflection from horizontal will reduce droplet size and increase drift potential.
• Number of Nozzles - Use the minimum number of nozzles that provide uniform coverage.
• Nozzle Type - Use a nozzle type that is designed for the intended application. With most
nozzle types, narrower spray angles produce larger droplets. Consider using low-drift
nozzles. Solid-stream nozzles oriented straight back produce the largest droplets and the
lowest drift.
• Boom Length - For some use patterns, reducing the effective boom length to less than
75% of the wingspan or rotor length may further reduce drift without reducing swath width.
• Swath Adjustment - When applications are made with a cross wind, the swath will be
displaced downwind. Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the field, the applica-
tor must compensate for this displacement by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.
• RELEASE HEIGHT - Making applications at the lowest height that is safe reduces expo-
sure of droplets to evaporation and wind. Higher release heights increase the potential
for spray drift.
6.3.5 GROUND APPLICATION SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES
• Observe the following precautions when using ground application to spray tree crops
or hops in the vicinity of aquatic areas such as lakes, reservoirs, permanent streams,
marshes, potholes, natural ponds, estuaries, or commercial fish ponds:
o Do not apply Agri-Mek SC when weather conditions favor drift to aquatic areas.
o Do not apply within 110 ft upwind of aquatic areas or when wind speed is above 8 mph.
o Spray last 3 rows windward of aquatic areas using nozzles on one side only, with spray
directed away from the aquatic areas.
o Avoid spray going over tops of trees by adjusting or turning off top nozzles. Shut off
nozzles on the side away from the grove/orchard when spraying the outside row. Shut
off nozzles when turning at ends of row and passing tree gaps in rows.
• BOOM HEIGHT - For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and
have minimal bounce.
• SHIELDED SPRAYERS - Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift.
Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the shields are not interfering with the uni-
form deposition of the spray on the target area.

AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the
Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR part 170. Refer to supple-
mental labeling under “Agricultural Use Requirements” in the
Directions for Use section for information about this standard.

PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
Hazards to Humans and Domestic Animals: May be fatal if
swallowed. May be fatal if inhaled. Do not breathe vapor or spray
mist. Harmful if absorbed through the skin. Causes moderate eye
irritation. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing.
FIRST AID: If swallowed: Call poison control center or doctor
immediately for treatment advice. Have a person sip a glass of
water if 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 inhaled: Move person to fresh
air. If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give
artificial respiration, preferably by mouth-to-mouth, if possible.
Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice.
If on skin or clothing: Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin
immediately with plenty of water for 15-20 minutes. Call a poison
control center or doctor for treatment advice. 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. 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
parenteral 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. Have the product container or label with you when calling a
poison control center or doctor, or going for treatment.
HOT LINE NUMBER: For 24-Hour Medical Emergency Assistance (Human or Animal) Or
Chemical Emergency Assistance (Spill, Leak, Fire or Accident), Call 1-800-888-8372.
Refer to booklet for PPE.
Environmental Hazards: This pesticide is toxic to fish and wildlife. For terrestrial uses: Do
not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas
below the mean high water mark. Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift from
target areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash water or rinsate.
This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or residues on blooming crops
or weeds. Do not apply product or allow it to drift to blooming crops or weeds if bees are
foraging the treatment area.
Use of this product may pose a risk to threatened and endangered species of fish, amphibians,
crustaceans (including fresh water shrimp), and insects. All use of this product in the state of California
should comply with the recommendations of the California Endangered Species Project. Before using
