Application Notes

For turf applications, Triple Crown T&O may be applied at labeled rates from 0.23 to 0.80 fl. oz. per 1,000 sq. ft., depending on the target pest. The label allows use up to 0.80 fl. oz. per 1,000 sq. ft. when heavy pest populations exist or maximum residual control is desired.

For armyworms, cutworms, and sod webworms, delay watering or mowing for 24 hours after application to support optimum control. For low-volume applications targeting sub-surface pests such as mole crickets, irrigate treated areas with at least 0.25 inches of water immediately after application. For mole cricket applications, watering in with up to 0.5 inches of water immediately after treatment is recommended.

For ornamental foliar applications, apply as a full-coverage foliar spray at the labeled rate for the target pest. Use sufficient water volume to thoroughly wet plant surfaces. Certain cultivars may be sensitive to the final spray solution, so treat a small number of plants and observe for one week before treating the entire planting.

Do not apply by air. Do not apply through any type of irrigation system. Do not allow people or pets in treated areas until spray has dried. Do not make applications during rain. Do not apply while bees are foraging or to plants that are flowering. Do not apply more than 0.88 lb. active ingredient per acre, 50 fl. oz. per acre of Triple Crown T&O, or 0.50 lb. imidacloprid per acre per year. Always read and follow the product label before use.
