HOW TO APPLY

Determine the size of the spraying job. For lawns, measure the area to be sprayed. For trees, shrubs and flowers, apply as a thorough cover spray. Begin treating when insects first appear. Applications should be repeated only as directed to maintain control. Apply as directed. Remember, thorough coverage is important. Be sure to follow the important use limitations for the specific vegetable you are treating, including the amount of spray that can be applied, the interval between treatments and the days to wait before harvest.

HOW TO USE THE QUICKFLIP SPRAYER

1. Shake container well before using. 
2. Connect a garden hose to the sprayer nozzle. Make sure the switch is fully forward in the “OFF” position.
3. Turn on water at the faucet. Extend hose to the farthest area to be treated and work back toward the faucet so you don't come in contact with the treated area.
4. Remove the safety tab from sprayer’s right side by pulling straight out. Discard or keep for future re-use.
5. To BEGIN spraying, point nozzle toward treatment site and pull switch backward towards hose connection. Water will automatically mix with the product.
6. Spray until wet to control insects. Walk at a steady pace, working back toward the faucet while spraying, using an even sweeping motion, slightly overlapping treated areas.
7. To STOP spraying, push switch forward toward the nozzle. Turn water off the faucet. To relieve pressure before removing ng nozzle from the host, pull switch backward towards hose connection until water stops spraying.
8. To STORE unused product, make sure the switch is fully forward in the “OFF” position.
9. Re-install the safety tab into sprayer’s right side. With sprayer in the full “OFF” position, push tab into position.
10. Place in a cool area away from heat, sunlight or open flame.

NOTE: This product is non-staining to most home siding depending on age and cleanliness. However, before using in areas where the spray may contact home siding (vinyl siding in particular), test in an inconspicuous area and recheck in a few hours. Do not use if any staining is observed.
