Use and Mixin

Use and Mixing

The instructions for use and mixing described below are from the Environmental Protection Agency approved Federal Label. Always read and follow label instructions. Not all products are registered for use in every state. Please check with Bayer or your local Lead State Agency for product registration status. If you wish to find out if a product is registered in your state or for additional product information, send us an email or call 1-866-99-BAYER.
      MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
      Order of Mixing OSPREY Xtra Herbicide may be used with other recommended pesticides, fertilizers, and micronutrients. The proper mixing procedure for OSPREY Xtra Herbicide alone or in tank mix combinations with other pesticides is as follows: 1. Fill the tank 1/4 to 1/3 full of water. 2. While agitating, add the required amount of OSPREY Xtra Herbicide. 3. Continue agitation until the OSPREY Xtra Herbicide is fully dispersed, at least 5 minutes. 4. Once OSPREY Xtra Herbicide is fully dispersed, maintain agitation and continue filling tank with water. OSPREY Xtra Herbicide should be fully mixed with water before adding any other material 5. As the tank is filling, add the required amount of spray adjuvant and ammonium nitrogen fertilizer. Add additional pesticide tank mix partners, if desired. 6. Continue agitation during herbicide application to ensure uniform spray coverage. If the mixture is not continuously agitated, settling may occur. If settling occurs, thoroughly re-agitate spray solution for at least 10 minutes before application. Use spray solution within 24 hours after mixing. NOTE: Do not use PVA packets in a tank mix with products that contain boron or release free chlorine. The resultant reaction of PVA and boron or free chlorine is a plastic that is not soluble in water or solvents.
      Reentry PPE
      PPE required for early entry to treated areas (that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water), is:\r\n- Coveralls.\r\n- Socks, shoes\r\n- Waterproof gloves\r\n- Protective eyewear
      PPE
      PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. Applicators and other handlers must wear: - Long-sleeved shirt and long pants, socks, shoes - Waterproof gloves - Protective eyewear (safety glasses)
      Tankmix Compatibility
      MIXING, COMPATIBILITY TESTING AND TANK MIX PARTNERS OSPREY Xtra Herbicide must be applied with clean and properly calibrated equipment. Prior to adding OSPREY Xtra Herbicide to the spray tank, ensure that the spray tank, filters, and nozzles have been thoroughly cleaned. It is the pesticide user's responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. Compatibility OSPREY Xtra Herbicide is physically and biologically compatible with many registered pesticides and fertilizers or micronutrients. However, there is potential for adverse chemical reactions. It is impossible to determine physical, biological, and plant compatibility for all scenarios that may be encountered; therefore, it is recommended that users determine the chemical, physical, biological and plant compatibility of such mixes prior to making applications on a broad commercial scale. If OSPREY Xtra Herbicide is to be tank mixed with other products, compatibility should be tested prior to mixing. To test for compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1 qt) of spray solution, combining all ingredients in the same ratio as the anticipated use. If any indications of physical incompatibility develop, do not use this mixture for spraying. Indications of incompatibility usually occur within 5-15 minutes after mixing. Read and follow the label of each tank mix product used for precautionary statements, directions for use, geographic and other restrictions.
