Section 18 Label for Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (BMSB) Management in Stone and Pome Fruit

Joanne Whalen, Extension IPM Specialist; jwhalen@udel.edu

As indicated last week, we received approval from EPA for our Section 18 request for the use of two dinotefuran products (Trade Names: Venom from Valent U.S.A. Corporation; and Scorpion 35SL from Gowan Company, LLC) to control BMSB on stone and pome fruits. You must have a copy of the label in your possession before making an application. Please see the following link to the Scorpion 35SL Section 18 Emergency Exemption Use Directions – http://www.cdms.net/ldat/ld9I6001.pdf

We will provide a link to the Venom label as soon as it is posted on cdms.
