Although this remedy has been extensively tested under a large variety of conditions the registration holder does not warrant that it will be efficacious under all conditions because the action and effect thereof may be affected by factors such as abnormal soil, climatic and storage conditions; quality of dilution water, compatibility with other substances not indicated on the label and the occurrence of resistance of the pests to the remedy concerned, as well as by the method, time and accuracy of application. The registration holder further does not accept responsibility for damage to crops, vegetation, the environment or harm to man or animal or for lack of performance of the remedy concerned due to failure of the user to follow the label instructions or to the occurrence of conditions, which could not have been foreseen in terms of the registration. Consult the supplier in event of any uncertainty. The continuous use of FENAMIPHOS EC in certain soils may result in an increase in the rate of biodegradation of fenamiphos and thus reduced efficacy. FENAMIPHOS 2010/02 VER 1 2 PRECAUTIONS: • Do not inhale fumes and/or spray mist. • Avoid skin and eye contact. • Wear protective clothing, face shield, rubber gloves and rubber boots when mixing and spraying the spray mixture. • Wash with soap and water after use and accidental skin contact. • Wash contaminated clothing after use. • Do not eat, drink or smoke while mixing or applying the product or before washing hands and face and changing clothing. • Do not spray during periods when bee activity is high. • Avoid drift of spray onto other crops, grazing, rivers, dams and areas not under treatment. • Clean application equipment after use. Dispose of wash water where it will not contaminate crops, grazing, rivers, dams and boreholes. • Triple rinse empty containers in the following manner: Invert the empty container over the spray or mixing tank and allow to drain for at least 30 seconds after the flow has slowed down to a drip. Thereafter, rinse the container three times with a volume of water equal to a minimum of 10 % of that of the container. Add the rinsings to the contents of the spray tank before destroying the container in the described manner. • Destroy the empty container by perforation and flattening and dispose of it in a safe manner. • Never re-use the empty container for any other purpose. • Prevent contamination of food, feeds, drinking water and eating utensils. SYMPTOMS OF HUMAN POISONING: Possible symptoms of fenamiphos (a choline-esterase inhibitor) poisoning can include headache, fatigue, faintness, giddiness, excessive sweating, nausea, abdominal pains, vomiting, diarrhoea, tightness of chest, anxiety, blurred vision, muscle twitching, respiratory distress and coma. FIRST AID TREATMENT: Get medical attention in all cases if poisoning is suspected. Remove the patient from the source of contamination to a well-ventilated area and keep him/her calm. Call a physician. Eyes: Flush eyes with clean, flowing water for at least 20 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids, until no evidence of chemicals remains. If irritation occurs and persists, obtain medical attention. Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and rinse contaminated body area thoroughly with plenty of soap and cold water, until no evidence of chemical remains. Do not rub skin. Inhalation: Remove patient to a well ventilated area away from source of poisoning. Give artificial respiration or closed chest cardiac massage if necessary. Maintain open airway passages. Do not apply direct mouth-to-mouth respiration. Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately. If the person is conscious, have them rinse mouth thoroughly with clean water and give large quantities of water to drink. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Treat respiratory difficulty with artificial respiration and oxygen. Qualified medical personnel must perform administration of oxygen and lavage. NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: This product contains fenamiphos, an organophosphate insecticide. Although atropine and 2-PAM are antidotal for most organophosphate insecticides, they may provide only slight therapeutic benefit in cases of fenamiphos poisoning. An aqueous suspension of activated charcoal can be administered to absorb remaining toxicant. Morphine, phenothiazines, reserpine, theophylline and similar drugs are contra-indicated and not to be used. Avoid aminoglycosides and succinylcholine, which have a blocking effect on FENAMIPHOS 2010/02 VER 1 3 the neuromuscular junction. RESISTANCE WARNING: For resistance management, FENAMIPHOS EC is a group code 1B insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to FENAMIPHOS EC and other group code 1B insecticides. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the insect population if these insecticides are used repeatedly. These resistant insects may not be controlled by FENAMIPHOS EC or any other group code 1B insecticide. To delay insecticide resistance: • Avoid exclusive repeated use of insecticides from the same insecticide group code. Alternate or tank-mix with products from different insecticide group codes, • Integrate other control methods (chemical, cultural, biological) into insect/mite control programmes. For specific information on resistance management contact the registration holder of this product. USE RESTRICTIONS: Potatoes: • Under situations of heavy nematode infestation, FENAMIPHOS EC will control nematodes, but a degree of infestation may still occur and it may not be possible to have an absolutely clean crop. • Reduced efficacy can be expected if dry conditions occur after application. • Plant healthy seed tubers, which have matured uniformly, to ensure synchronized emergence. • It is important to ensure thorough coverage of plants. • Plants must be growing vigorously, without stem and foliage damage due to factors e.g. blight, tuber moth or hail damage. Also, the plants must not be stressed due to weed competition. • Ensure that the potatoes are lifted as soon as possible after the crop has reached full potential. Late nematode infestations can occur if potatoes are left over in the soil. • FENAMIPHOS EC may cause deformed leaves and necrotic spots under certain conditions. These leaf symptoms must not be mistaken for virus disease symptoms. Plant pest control inspectors must ensure that the differences between these symptoms are known to them. Producers of seed potatoes must inform inspectors that FENAMIPHOS EC has been used. Contact the registration holder of this product when in doubt. Tobacco: In order to minimize possible crop damage, foliar applications of FENAMIPHOS EC must be done as a directed spray onto healthy vigorously growing plants, free from water stress, during cool conditions. DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Use only as directed. Compatibility: • The compatibility of FENAMIPHOS EC may be influenced by several factors. As factors influencing compatibility may vary, a physical compatibility test must always be performed before such tank mixture is sprayed. • When FENAMIPHOS EC is used
