Use Flonicamid either as a second line of defence to support biocontrol strategies in an IPM program, or where IPM is not in use, then curatively at any time during the crop when whitefly occurs and is threatening to cause economic damage. Apply a maximum of three (3) foliar applications per year, using calibrated high volume boom sprayer or similar equipment, at a minimum 7-day retreatment interval. Use spray volume of 400-500 L/ha after transplant, increasing to 1,000 L/ha for full canopy crops. It is essential to achieve good penetration of the crop canopy to ensure thorough coverage of all developing fruit, foliage and stems, and particularly the underside of leaves, as nymphs (and adults) predominantly inhabit the underside of leaves. DO NOT add adjuvant/surfactant to diluent. DO NOT apply more than two (2) consecutive applications of insecticides that have the same Mode of Action (MoA) within and between seasons to avoid resistance. | | NURSERY STOCK (NON-FOOD) including Seedlings and Plugs, potted colour, trees and shrubs, foliage plants, palms, grasses and fruit trees (non-bearing). | APHIDS (Aphidoidea) MEALYBUGS (Pseudococcidae) MIRIDS (Miridae) Silverleaf Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) Suppression Only: THRIPS (Thysanoptera) Western Flower Thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) | 10-20 g per 100L (plus addition of adjuvant according to label rates) | - | - Apply as foliar spray at the first sign of insect pest infestation. - Apply in sufficient water to provide thorough and uniform coverage of the plant. - Use the higher rate under high pest pressure. - Maximum of three (3) applications per year, with a minimum retreatment interval of 14 days. - Refer to the Protections section for bees To Avoid Crop Damage: This product has NOT been fully evaluated for crop safety in nursery stock. It is essential therefore that users treat a small area of the crop prior to a whole crop treatment and monitor any phytotoxic effects that will compromise production goals. | Page 3 of 6 85 *** Flikka® 500WG WITHHOLDING PERIODS: Apples, Pears: DO NOT HARVEST FOR 21 DAYS AFTER APPLICATION Potatoes: DO NOT HARVEST FOR 14 DAYS AFTER APPLICATION Cotton: DO NOT HARVEST FOR 7 DAYS AFTER APPLICATION Cucurbits: DO NOT HARVEST FOR 1 DAY AFTER APPLICATION DO NOT ALLOW LIVESTOCK TO GRAZE IN TREATED AREAS. DO NOT FEED COTTON FODDER, STUBBLE OR TRASH TO LIVESTOCK GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS Mixing Add the required amount of Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide to clean water in half filled spray tank with the agitator or by-pass in operation. Maintain agitation while filling tank with remainder of water. Agitation must also be maintained throughout the spray operation. Application: To be effective Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide requires thorough spray coverage. Ensure that equipment is properly calibrated to give an even distribution at the correct volume. Thorough coverage of the target area is essential. Apply in sufficient water, and using suitable application parameters (nozzles, pressure, boom height, speed, etc) to ensure thorough and even coverage. Use only MEDIUM spray droplets according to ASAE S572 definition for standard nozzles. Adjust water volumes according to the crop growth stage. Apples: The same quantity of Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide per hectare should be used when spraying by either the dilute or concentrate method. Dilute spraying (Apples and Pears): Use a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of run-off and matched to the crop being sprayed. Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy. Apply sufficient water to cover the crop to the point of run-off. Avoid excessive run-off. The required water volume may be determined by applying different test volumes, using different settings on the sprayer, from industry guidelines or expert advice. Add the amount of Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide specified in the Directions for Use table for each 100L of water. Spray to the point of run-off. If water volume exceeds 1000 L/ha, total rate of Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide must not exceed 200 g/ha. The required dilute spray volume will change and the sprayer set up and operation may also need to be changed, as the crop grows. Concentrate spraying (Apples): Use a sprayer designed and set up for concentrate spraying (that is a sprayer which applies water volumes less than those required to reach the point of runoff) and matched to the crop being sprayed. Apply a minimum of 500 L water/ha. Set up and operate the sprayer to achieve even coverage throughout the crop canopy using your chosen water volume. Determine an appropriate dilute spray volume (see Dilute Spraying above) for the crop canopy. This is needed to calculate the concentrate mixing rate. The mixing rate for concentrate spraying can then be calculated in the following way: EXAMPLE ONLY: 1. Dilute spray volume as determined above: for example 1000 L/ha 2. Your chosen concentrate spray volume: for example 500 L/ha 3. The concentrate factor in this example is 2X (i.e. 1000 L + 500 L = 2) 4. If the dilute label rate is 14 g/100 L, then the concentrate rate becomes 2 x 14, which is 28 g/100 L of concentrate spray. The chosen spray volume, amount of product per 100 L of water, and the sprayer set up and operation may need to be changed as the crop grows. For further information on concentrate spraying, users are advised to consult relevant industry guidelines, undertake appropriate competency training and follow industry Best Practices.

INSECTICIDE RESISTANCE WARNING GROUP 29 INSECTICIDE For insecticide resistance management, Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide is a Group 29 insecticide. Some naturally occurring insect biotypes resistant to Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide and other Group 29 insecticides may exist through normal genetic variability in any insect population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the insect population if Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide and other Group 29 insecticides are used repeatedly. The effectiveness of Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide on resistant individuals could be significantly reduced. Since occurrence of resistant individuals is difficult to detect prior to use, Colin Campbell (Chemicals) Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide to control resistant insects. Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide may be subject to specific resistance management strategies. For further information contact your local supplier, Colin Campbell (Chemicals) Pty Ltd representative or local agricultural department agronomist EXPORT OF TREATED PRODUCE Growers should note that suitable MRLs or import tolerances do not exist in all markets for produce treated with Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide. In some situations export requirements may be met by limiting application number and/or imposing a longer withholding period than specified above. If you are growing produce for export, please check with Colin Campbell (Chemicals) Pty Ltd for the latest information on any potential trade issues and their management before using Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide. PRECAUTIONS Re-entry period DO NOT enter treated areas until the spray has dried unless wearing cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrists (or equivalent clothing) and chemical resistant gloves. Clothing must be laundered after each day’s use. PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT Flonicamid 500 WG Insecticide may have adverse effects on honey bees for a short period after application. DO NOT spray any plants in flower where bees are foraging. Risk to bees is reduced by spraying in the early morning and late evening when bees are not foraging. PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with the chemical or used containers. PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS DO NOT apply under weather conditions, or from spaying equipment that may cause drift onto nearby plants/crops, cropping lands or pastures.
