Trade Advice: Export of treated commodities
Growers should note that Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) or import tolerances do not exist in all markets for labelled crops treated with DANISARABA MITICIDE. Additionally, some export markets have established MRLs different to those in Australia. If you are growing crops for export, please check with BASF Australia Ltd for the latest information on MRLs and import tolerances BEFORE using this product.

General Instructions: GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
DANISARABA MITICIDE is a miticide which acts by inhibiting electron transport in the respiration system of insects. Monitor crops and apply DANISARABA MITICIDE as threshold levels are reached. DANISARABA MITICIDE has low toxicity to beneficial insects and is suitable for use in Integrated Pest Management programs.

APPLICATION
To be effective, thorough crop coverage is required (up to the point of runoff). Adjust water volumes according to the crop growth stage to ensure thorough coverage and apply to the point of run-off. The addition of an appropriate adjuvant may improve spray coverage. DANISARABA MITICIDE is not systemic and does not have translaminar activity meaning good spray coverage is essential. Tank mixes with Summer oil or an organophosphate insecticide IS NOT recommended.

Before spraying Ornamentals not listed on the label, a small test application should be made to assess for phytotoxicity.

Mixing Instructions
Measure the required amount of DANISARABA MITICIDE, add to partly filled spray tank, and then add the remainder of the water. Where required, add a non-ionic surfactant at the end of the filling process.

DANISARABA MITICIDE is a suspension concentrate (SC) formulation. When using in a tank mix with other products, the following mix order should be observed;
• Half fill the spray tank. Maintain constant agitation;
• Add any granule (WG) formulated products first and allow dispersion, followed by any suspension concentrates (SC/flowable) including DANISARABA MITICIDE;
• Add any other EC formulations;
• Add any water-soluble salts;
• Add any adjuvants as required.

Compatibility
DANISARABA MITICIDE is physically compatible with the following products (maintain constant agitation):
Fungicides: Polyram, Delan, Luna Sensation, Fontelis, Toledo, Serifel, Systhane, Belanty, Switch, Bravo, Merivon, Vivando, Pristine, Cabrio, Nimrod, Kocide Blue Xtra, Tri-Base Blue and Captan.
Insecticides: Versys, Success Neo, Belt, Movento and Altacor.

DANISARABA MITICIDE is not compatible with Mancozeb 750 WG.
As formulations of other manufacturer’s products are beyond the control of BASF, and the quality of water may vary with location, all mixtures should be tested prior to mixing commercial quantities.

Dilute Spraying
Use a sprayer designed to apply high volumes of water up to the point of run-off and matched to the stage of growth of crop being sprayed. Calibrate 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 specialist advice. Spray to the point of run-off. The required dilute spray volume, sprayer calibration and operation may all need to be changed as the crop grows.

Concentrate Spraying
Use a sprayer designed and calibrated for concentrate spraying (that is a sprayer which applies water volumes less than those required to reach the point of run-off and matched to the stage of crop being sprayed. Calibrate 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 - Dilute spray volume, as determined above to achieve coverage near the point of run-off, for example is 1000 L/ha. Your chosen concentrate spray volume is 500 L/ha. The concentration factor in this example is: 2 x (1000 L ÷ 500 L = 2. If the dilute label rate is 100 mL/100 L, then the concentrate rate becomes 2 x 100, which is 200 mL/100 L of water. 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.

IPM compatibility
DANISARABA MITICIDE has low toxicity to insect predators and is suitable for use where IPM is practiced.

Resistance Warning: For insecticide resistance management Danisaraba is a Group 25A insecticide. Some naturally-occurring insect biotypes resistant to Danisaraba and other Group 25A mites may exist through normal genetic variability in any insect population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the mite population if Danisaraba or other Group 25A insecticides are used repeatedly. The effectiveness of Danisaraba on resistant individuals could be significantly reduced. Since occurrence of resistant insects is difficult to detect prior to use, BASF Australia Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of Danisaraba to control resistant mites. Danisaraba may be subject to specific resistance management strategies. For further information contact your local supplier, BASF Australia Ltd representative or local agricultural department agronomist.

Precautions: RE-ENTRY PERIOD
DO NOT enter treated areas until spray has dried. If prior entry is necessary wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist (or equivalent clothing) and chemical resistant gloves. Clothing must be laundered after each day's use.

Protections: PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT
DO NOT contaminate wetlands or watercourses with this product or used containers.

Storage and Disposal: STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
Store in the closed, original container in a dry, cool, well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight. Triple rinse containers before disposal. Dispose of rinsate or any undiluted chemical according to state/territory legislative requirements. If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. If not recycling, break, crush, or puncture and deliver empty packaging to an approved waste management facility. If an approved waste management facility is not available, bury the empty packaging 500 mm below the surface in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose, clear of waterways, desirable vegetation and tree roots, in compliance with relevant local, state or territory government regulations. DO NOT burn empty containers or product.

Safety Directions: Avoid contact with skin. When opening the container, preparing the spray and using the prepared spray, wear cotton overalls buttoned to the neck and wrist (or equivalent clothing) and elbow-length chemical resistant gloves. Wash hands after use. After each day’s use, wash gloves and contaminated clothing.

SPRAY DRIFT RESTRAINTS
Specific definitions for terms used in this section of the label can be found at
DO NOT allow bystanders to come into contact with the spray cloud.
DO NOT apply in a manner that may cause an unacceptable impact to native vegetation, agricultural crops, landscaped gardens and aquaculture production, or cause contamination of plant or livestock commodities, outside the application site from spray drift. The advisory buffer zones in the relevant buffer zone table/s below provide guidance but may not be sufficient in all situations. Wherever possible, correctly use application equipment designed to reduce spray drift and apply when the wind direction is away from these sensitive areas.
DO NOT apply unless the wind speed is between 3 and 20 kilometres per hour at the application site during the time of application.
DO NOT apply if there are surface temperature inversion conditions present at the application site during the time of application. These conditions exist most evenings one to two hours before sunset and persist until one to two hours after sunrise.
DO NOT apply by a boom sprayer unless the following requirements are met:
• Spray droplets not smaller than a COARSE spray droplet size category.
• Minimum distances between the application site and downwind sensitive areas (see ‘Mandatory buffer zones’ section of the following table titled ‘Buffer zones for boom sprayers’) are observed.
