Product Information

ProFlex includes an adulticide and 2 insect growth regulators. The insect growth regulators, novaluron and pyriproxyfen, prevent immature insects from developing into reproductive adults. The adulticide, lambda-cyhalothrin, will kill insect pests. ProFlex is for use as a general surface (nonfood/nonfeed areas), crack and crevice, or spot treatment in, on, and around buildings and structures and their immediate surroundings, and on modes of transport. Areas of use include: industrial buildings, houses, beneath awnings, porches, closets, furniture, apartment buildings, mobile homes, laboratories, buses, greenhouses (non-commercial), stores, factories, warehouses, wineries, vessels, railcars, trucks, trailers, aircraft (cargo and other non-cabin areas only), schools, nursing homes, hospitals, mausoleums, restaurants, hotels, correctional facilities, livestock/ poultry housing, pet kennels, food granaries, food grain mills and food manufacturing, processing, and servicing establishments. ProFlex may also be used on lawns, turfgrass, ornamental trees, ornamental grasses and shrubs around residential, institutional, public, commercial, agricultural and industrial buildings, parks, recreational areas, golf course out of play areas (including native planting areas, around clubhouses, outbuildings and on-course lavatories) and athletic fields.

Directions For Use

It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.

IMPORTANT: Not for use on plants being grown for sale or other commercial use, or for commercial seed production, or for research purposes. For use on plants intended for aesthetic purposes or climatic modification and being grown in interior plantscapes, ornamental gardens or parks, or on lawns or grounds.

Resistance-Management Recommendations

For resistance management, please note that ProFlex contains a Group 3A (Lambda Cyhalothrin), a Group 15 (Novaluron) and a Group 7C (Pyriproxyfen) insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to ProFlex and other Group 3A, 15 or 7C insecticides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are used repeatedly in the same fields/sites. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed.

To delay insecticide resistance, take the following steps:

● Use tank mixtures with insecticides from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. DO NOT rely on the same mixture repeatedly for the same pest population. Consider any known cross-resistance issues (for the targeted pests) between the individual components of a mixture. In addition, consider the following recommendations provided by the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC):

• Individual insecticides selected for use in mixtures should be highly effective and be applied at the rates at which they are individually registered for use against the target species.

• Mixtures with components having the same IRAC mode of action classification are not recommended for insect resistance management.

• When using mixtures, consider any known cross-resistance issues between the individual components for the targeted pest(s).

• Mixtures become less effective if resistance is already developing to one or both active ingredients, but they may still provide pest management benefits.

• The insect resistance management benefits of an insecticide mixture are greatest if the two components have similar periods of residual insecticidal activity. Mixtures of insecticides with unequal periods of residual insecticide activity may offer an insect resistance management benefit only for the period where both insecticides are active.

● Adopt an integrated pest management program for insecticide use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, crop rotation, record keeping, and which considers cultural, biological and other chemical control practices.

● Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of survival suggests the presence of resistance, consult with your local university specialist or certified pest control advisor.

● Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and or IPM recommendations for the specific site and pest problems in your area.

SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES

THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT.

BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.

IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE

An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions.

SHIELDED SPRAYERS

Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers.

Verify that the shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area.

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY

When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.

TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS

Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Avoid applications during temperature inversions.

WIND

Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS.

Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.

Handheld Technology Applications:

Take precautions to minimize spray drift.

This product is RESTRICTED for use in New York State.

USE RESTRICTIONS

DO NOT allow children or pets to contact treated surfaces until spray has dried.

DO NOT apply by aerial application.

DO NOT apply this product in any room being used as living, eating, sleeping, or recovery area by patients, the elderly, or infirm while they are in the room.

DO NOT apply to institutions (including libraries, sports facilities, etc.,) in the immediate area when occupants are present.

DO NOT apply to classrooms when in use.

DO NOT apply this product to edible growing crops or stored raw agricultural commodities used for food or feed.

DO NOT allow applications to contact water inhabited by fish, such as in aquariums and ornamental fish ponds that are located in/around sites/structures being treated.

Application Restrictions for Residential Outdoor Surface and Space Sprays:

● All outdoor applications must be limited to spot or crack and crevice treatments only, except for the following permitted uses:

1. Applications to soil or vegetation around structure;

2. Applications to lawns, turf, and other vegetation;

3. Applications to building foundations, up to a maximum height of 2 feet above grade;

4. Applications to underside of eaves, soffits, doors, or windows permanently protected from rainfall by a covering, overhang, awning or other structure;

5. Applications around potential pest entry points into buildings, when limited to a surface band not to exceed one inch in width;

6. Applications made through the use of a coarse, low pressure spray to only those portions of surfaces that are directly above bare soil, lawn, turf, mulch or other vegetation, as listed on the label, and not over an impervious surface, drainage or other condition that could result in runoff into storm drains, drainage ditches, gutters, or surface waters, in order to control occasional invaders or aggregating pests.

DO NOT water the treated area to the point of runoff after application.

DO NOT make applications during rain.

DO NOT apply directly to sewers or drains, or to any area like a gutter where drainage to sewers, storm drains, water bodies, or aquatic habitat can occur, except as directed by the label.

● In New York State, this product may not be applied to turf within 100 ft. of a coastal marsh or streams that drain into a coastal marsh.

Mixing Instructions

Dilute ProFlex with water for application using hand-held or power-operated application equipment as a coarse spray for crack and crevice or spot and general surface (nonfood/ nonfeed areas only) treatments. Application equipment that delivers low volume treatments, such as the Actisol® applicator or other similar low volume spray equipment, may also be used to make crack and crevice or spot and general surface treatments. Fill applicator tank with the desired volume of water and add ProFlex. Close and shake before use in order to ensure proper mixing. Shake or reagitate applicator tank before use if application is interrupted. Mix only amount of treatment volume as required. ProFlex may be applied by using a paintbrush or other porous applicator attached to a handle as a general surface treatment. If mixture sits for more than 2 hours, shake well before application.

Tank Mixing

ProFlex may be tank mixed with other currently registered pesticides unless expressly prohibited by the product label. 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. A small volume mixing test with the other products is recommended to ensure compatibility. If other chemicals are added to the applicator tank, add ProFlex last. If mixed with EC formulations, use within 24 hours. Fill tank to desired volume and continue to agitate while making applications. Unless otherwise noted in the label instructions, use the procedure below for preparation of a new tank mix:

● Add wettable powders to tank water

● Mix well

● Add liquids and flowables

● Mix well

● Add emulsifiable concentrates

● Mix well

Try reversing the order of addition or increasing the amount of water if the combination is not compatible using the above order. NOTE: After increasing the amount of water, if the mixture is found to be compatible, it is necessary to recalibrate the sprayer for a higher volume application. If mixture is allowed to sit for more than 2 hours, shake well before application. DO NOT allow mixtures to stand overnight.

LIVESTOCK AND POULTRY HOUSING STRUCTURES

Controls pests of poultry and livestock facilities: biting flies, filth-breeding flies, fleas, litter beetles, hide beetles, bed bugs, mites and ticks. Apply as a general surface (including directed spray) and/or crack and crevice treatment.

Control is enhanced when facilities are cleaned and interior and exterior perimeter applications are made in and around the livestock or poultry housing structures. Normal cleaning practices of the structure also must be followed along with applications of ProFlex to effectively control crawling and flying insect pests.

To control bed bugs, mites and ticks in animal facilities, treat cracks/crevices, walls, posts, nest boxes and mobile side curtains.

For adult fly control in and around animal facilities, spray application to target areas where flies will rest: the ceiling, rafters and trusses. Also treat windows, interior and covered exterior walls and supports, fences and vegetation. ProFlex may be sprayed on manure in areas where fly larvae are abundant and the area cannot be cleaned.

Allow ProFlex to dry before applying disinfectants.

Insecticide Class Rotations: In order to avoid problems with developed resistance to insecticides it is important to rotate to an insecticide of a different class each 2-3 flocks. It is best to attempt to use 3 different classes of insecticides during a calendar year.

RESTRICTIONS:

DO NOT treat birdcages or stock pens when animals are present.

DO NOT apply ProFlex directly to animals.

DO NOT allow animals back in treated areas of facility until treated areas have dried.

DO NOT apply directly to any natural bodies of water: ponds, lakes, streams, rivers, marshes, potholes, and estuaries.

DO NOT apply ProFlex to any animal feed, water or watering equipment.

DO NOT contaminate any animal feed, food or water in and around livestock or poultry housing when making applications.

DO NOT make interior applications of ProFlex in areas of facility where animals

Application Rate

Use Directions

Unoccupied areas of poultry facilities

General Surface, Crack and Crevice and Spot Spray

1 - 2 fl. oz. per gallon of water to cover 1,000. ft2

Apply to floor area (birds grown on litter) or to walls, posts and cage framing (birds grown in cages). Apply into cracks and crevices around insulation. Reapply after each grow out or de-caking and sanitization procedure.

Indoor control can be enhanced by making perimeter treatments around the outside of building foundations to prevent immigrating adult beetles. Apply in a uniform band 1 - 3 ft. up and 2 - 6 ft. out from foundation. Maintaining a year round treatment program will prevent background populations from reaching problem levels.

For control of beetles, in houses containing birds grown on litter and in broiler-breeder houses, apply to litter after birds are removed and after tilling and any other litter management. If litter is removed and replaced with fresh bedding, treat new bedding after it is spread. Apply spray to inside walls, posts and exterior perimeter. Reapply between each flock.

To control beetles in caged-layer houses, DO NOT treat accumulated manure as it will likely disrupt natural enemies that control fly breeding. Instead, treat the perimeter of the manure. Also spray pit walls, posts and exterior of structure.

Rates may be increased to 2 fl. oz. per gallon when environmental conditions are conducive to higher pest populations or high numbers of pests are present.

Reapply between each flock.

Unoccupied areas of livestock facilities

General Surface, Crack and Crevice and Spot Spray

1 - 2 fl. oz. per

gallon of water to

cover1,000 ft2

Apply to floors, vertical and overhead surfaces where crawling or flying insect pests may be present.

Feeders, waterers and feed carts must be covered before application to prevent contamination. DO NOT apply to milk rooms. Pay attention to animal areas including stanchions, pipes, windows, doors and areas where insect pests hide or congregate.

Rates may be increased to 2 fl. oz. per gallon when environmental conditions are conducive to higher pest populations or high numbers of pests are present.

If needed, repeat application 14 days after previous treatment or if heavy rainfall occurs.

ORNAMENTALS AND LAWNS/TURFGRASS

ProFlex may be used for applications to maintain indoor or outdoor areas where turf and ornamentals are grown: residential landscaped areas and non-residential landscapes around institutional, public, commercial and industrial buildings, parks, recreational areas, and athletic fields (including trees, shrubs, flowers, evergreens, foliage plants and groundcovers).

Applicators must ensure that they are certified in the necessary pesticide certification categories to allow application of ProFlex away from structures, such as turf and ornamental plantings. Structural pest control certification categories may limit the distance away from structures for pesticide application. Consult your state extension office or pesticide regulatory officials for further information.

This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or residues on blooming crops or weeds. DO NOT apply this product or allow it to drift to blooming crops or weeds if bees are foraging the treatment area.

IMPORTANT: Time application to flowering plants during periods when pollinating insects are not present, such as early morning or late evening.

RESTRICTIONS:

DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system.

DO NOT apply this product to edible crops.

DO NOT apply this product by aerial application.

DO NOT use this pesticide adjacent to water where it may affect aquatic organisms. To protect these organisms, DO NOT apply this pesticide within 25 ft. of lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, marshes or natural ponds, estuaries, and commercial fish farm ponds.

DO NOT make outdoor broadcast applications to turf and ornamentals when wind speed is 15 mph or greater.

● In the state of New York, DO NOT apply within 100 ft. of coastal marshes or streams that drain into coastal marshes.

Mixing Instructions

ProFlex is to be mixed with water and may be used in all types of standard application equipment. Fill applicator tank with the desired volume of water and add ProFlex. It is suggested that the water be pH 5-7H. Adjust water pH with a buffering agent if necessary. Slowly add ProFlex to applicator tank water with maximum agitation. Close and shake or re agitate applicator tank before use if application is interrupted. Mix only the minimum volume needed for the area to be treated.

Tank Mixing

ProFlex may be tank mixed with other currently registered pesticides unless expressly prohibited by the product labels. A small volume mixing test (jar test) with the other products is recommended to ensure compatibility. If other chemicals are added to the applicator tank, add ProFlex last. Fill tank to desired volume and continue to agitate while making applications. If mixed with EC formulations, use within 24 hours.

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.

INSECT CONTROL on ORNAMENTAL PLANTS

ProFlex is for use to control the pests listed in the table below in: residential landscaped areas and landscaped areas around institutional, public, commercial and industrial buildings, parks, recreational areas, and athletic fields (including trees, shrubs, flowers, evergreens, foliage plants, non-blooming bedding plants, and groundcovers).

NOTE: While phytotoxicity testing has been carried out on a wide range of ornamental plants under various environmental conditions, and no phytotoxicity has been observed, it is impossible to test all species and varieties. Certain species and cultivars may be sensitive to ProFlex. It is advised to pre-spray a selection of ornamental plants and observe them for 7-10 days prior to treating large areas if local use experience is unavailable.

12.5 - 25 fl. oz. to cover one acre

Application to turf should be started prior to the establishment of high insect pest populations and significant turf damage. Make reapplications as necessary to keep pest populations under control, using higher rates as pest pressure increases.

Use higher rates within the specified range for severe infestations. Apply at 7-day intervals if retreatment is necessary. More frequent treatments should be limited to spot treatments.

For spot treatments, use 1.25 fl. oz. of ProFlex per 1 - 2.5 gals. of water.

Surface Insect Control (armyworm, cutworms, fleas, etc.): Apply ProFlex at labeled rates in 2 - 5 gals. of water per 1,000 sq. ft. The use of a spreader-sticker may be useful if high rainfall amounts are forecast, otherwise the addition of adjuvants is not necessary under normal conditions for surface insect control in turf. For best results, delay watering for 24 hours and mowing for 2 days to control surface-feeding insect pests.

Bluegrass billbugs (adult), Black turfgrass ataenius (adult), Chiggers, Fleas (adult), Grubs (suppression), Hyperodes weevils (adult), Mole crickets (nymphs and young adults)

or

52 fl. oz. to cover one acre

Thatch Inhabiting Insect Control (chinch bugs, billbugs, etc.): Apply ProFlex at labeled rates in 2 - 10 gals. of water per 1,000 sq. ft. The use of a nonionic wetting agent, penetrant or similar adjuvant is recommended at label rates. Lightly irrigate after application with up to 1/2 inch of water to move the ProFlex into the thatch layer. If irrigation is not available, then use high water application rates.

Subsurface Insect Control (mole crickets, grubs, etc.): Apply ProFlex at labeled rates in 4 - 10 gals. of water per 1,000 sq. ft. The use of a nonionic wetting agent, penetrant or similar adjuvant is strongly recommended following label rates. Use the highest water application rates possible with your sprayer. Apply ProFlex to turf wet with dew, rain or irrigation. Water in immediately after application with 1/4 - 1/2 inch of water.

Fire Ant Control: For mound treatments, use 1 - 2 gallons of dilution for each mound. Apply a 4-foot diameter circle around and over the mound. For mounds larger than 12 inches, use a larger volume.

Application should be made in late evening or early morning, when it is cooler (65 - 80°F) and insects are most active.

1 Not for use on chinch bugs in New York state.

* Example: To treat the listed turf pests at the 0.6 fl. oz. per 1,000 sq. ft. rate, determine the gallons of dilution per 1,000 sq. ft. needed to adequately cover the turf. At a 5 gallon per 1,000 sq. ft. dilution, take the 0.6 fl. oz. and divide it by the 5 (gallon) to get 0.12 fl. oz. mL to be added per gallon. For a 50 gallon tank, therefore, this would be 30.12 fl. oz. X 50 = 6 fl. oz. in 50 gallons of water.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL

DO NOT contaminate water, food or feed by storage or disposal.

PESTICIDE STORAGE AND SPILL PROCEDURES: Store upright at room temperature. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures. In case of spillage or leakages, soak up with an absorbent material such as sand, sawdust, earth, Fuller’s earth, etc. Dispose of with chemical waste.
