Rate: 6.25 mL/ha. WHP: 14 days (H,G). Apply diluted with water to a minimum of 20 L/ha by air or 50 L/ha by ground rig, directly onto locusts. Where inaccessibility prevents direct spraying of locusts apply as a barrier treatment (minimum 25 m wide) ahead of advancing hopper bands. DO NOT re-treat for 14 days following application. DO NOT apply to wet foliage. Rainfast after drying on foliage (1 hour). Sugarcane - Sugarcane Weevil Borer (Rhabdoscelus obscurus) (Qld, NSW, WA, NT only). Rate: 2 to 5.7 mL/100 m row. WHP: 12 weeks (H, G). Apply during the summer months of December to February when the crop has produced the first millable internode of cane. Use hollow cone nozzles as a directed spray to cover the base of the sugarcane stools and up the stalk to a height of 40 cm. Use a non-ionic wetting agent. Apply in a minimum water volume of 250 L/ha (approx 3.8 L/100 m row). Use the higher rate when pest pressure is heavy. Sugarcane - Sugarcane wireworm (various) (Qld, NSW, WA, NT only).

Bananas band spray, per 100 m row (total for both sides; half from each direction): 1.5 m band width (150 m² spray area): 60 mL product, minimum water 20 L (trash removed) / 40 L (trash retained); 2.0 m (200 m²): 80 mL, 27 L / 54 L; 2.5 m (250 m²): 100 mL, 33 L / 66 L; 3.0 m (300 m²): 120 mL, 40 L / 80 L. Band width = butt diameter plus 30 cm on either side of the butt. Mixing: Bananas, brassicas, cotton, wine grapevines, potatoes, pastures, sorghum, sugarcane: Slowly add the required amount of product to water in the spray tank while stirring or agitating. Agitate while spraying. Mushrooms: Add required amount of Apparent Onslaught Insecticide to a small quantity of water, ensuring thorough mixing. Application: Bananas: Ensure thorough coverage of butts, suckers and surrounding trash and exposed soil. Brassicas: Ensure thorough coverage of foliage and heads. Cotton: For ground application use a prepared spray volume of 35 - 75 L/ha depending on the size of the crop. Wine grapevines: apply by hand held equipment as a high volume directed spray of approximately 500 mL solution per vine. Mushrooms: Apply mixture to peat moss during preparation of casing, ensuring even mixing in peat moss. Aerial application: Use spray techniques that minimize off-target spray drift. DO NOT use rotary atomisers. Use application volumes between 20 L and 50 L/ha. Achieve a droplet density of ~60 droplets/cm² on a flat surface on the target. When spraying large droplets (>250 µm), increase the application volume to > 40 L/ha to ensure sufficient droplets are produced. Aerial application is not recommended for brassica and potato crops. Withholding periods: Bananas: NOT REQUIRED WHEN USED AS DIRECTED. Brassicas: DO NOT HARVEST FOR 7 DAYS AFTER APPLICATION. Cotton: DO NOT HARVEST FOR 4 WEEKS AFTER APPLICATION. DO NOT GRAZE OR CUT FOR STOCK FOOD. Wine grapevines: NOT REQUIRED WHEN USED AS DIRECTED (H). DO NOT FEED TRASH OR BY-PRODUCTS RESULTING FROM TREATED GRAPEVINES TO LIVESTOCK (G).
