DIRECTIONS FOR USE:

Restrictions and Limitations:

• Velifer is for enclosed commercial greenhouse use only.
• DO NOT use thermal application equipment, such as heated foggers.

Application Instructions and Pests Controlled:

Velifer can be applied as a foliar spray to ornamentals, fruits, vegetables, herbs, nut trees, vines, brambles, bushberries, and spices grown in enclosed commercial greenhouses. This includes commercial production of fruit, vegetable, herb, and spice transplants for the consumer market.

Apply Velifer when target pests are first observed. Velifer is a contact insecticide/miticide and must be applied in an application volume sufficient for uniform coverage, but not to the point of runoff. If necessary, use of a compatible spray adjuvant can improve spray coverage. Velifer may be used in an IPM program that includes other tools such as conventional insecticides, cultural practices, and mechanical controls. Include regular scouting as part of your IPM program and to ensure that applications can be made when pest pressure is low to moderate.

Shake container well before use.

Foliar Application Instructions:

• Use prepared slurries within 12 hours.
• Avoid exposure of prepared slurries to direct sunlight.
• Recommended application timing is afternoon or evening.
• Apply Velifer to leaf wetness without runoff.
• Overhead irrigation within one day of treatment may wash spores off and reduce efficacy.

Velifer Pest Use Directions:

Enclosed Commercial Greenhouses: Ornamentals, Fruits, Vegetables, Herbs, Nut Trees, Vines, Brambles, Bushberries and Spices, including Commercial Production of Fruit, Vegetable, Herb, and Spice Transplants for the Consumer market - Aphids, Mealybugs, Mites, Thrips, Whiteflies: 3 to13 fl oz Velifer/100 gal water.

Application Information:

• For best performance, apply at first sign of pest infestation.
• Apply Velifer with sufficient water volume for proper coverage for optimal performance.
• Make applications on 3- to 14-day intervals depending on pest pressure. Use the shorter interval when pest pressure is higher.
• The Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI) for Velifer is 0 days.

Plant Tolerance:

Velifer may be applied to ornamentals (annuals, perennials, woody trees and shrubs), fruits, vegetables, herbs, nut trees, vines, brambles, bushberries, and spices. Not all species, varieties, and cultivars can be tested for tolerance to Velifer, possible tank mix combinations with Velifer, pesticide treatments preceding or following those with Velifer, and combinations of Velifer with surfactants or adjuvants. Because many cultivars within a plant species vary in tolerance to chemical applications and growing conditions, the grower must recognize these differences and test the product accordingly. At a minimum, always test a small group of representative plants for tolerance to Velifer under local growing conditions and prior to large-scale use.

Grower assumes responsibility for testing species suitability under local growing conditions by treating a small number of plants at the specified rate. At a minimum, this should include evaluating treated plants for several weeks following treatment for possible injury or other effects.

DO NOT contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwater or rinsate.

This product is potentially pathogenic to beneficial insects and honey bees. DO NOT apply while bees or other pollinating insects are foraging the treatment area.
