Stewardship

Mustang is an incredibly effective tool for controlling a broad spectrum of rice insect pests. But these benefits don't come without responsibility. In addition to the label requirements, there are a few key management practices to keep in mind when you use Mustang insecticide.

  1. Assure the longest residual control.
    Use the highest labeled rate, timing the first application to the first major pest that reaches threshold levels.
  2. Observe the maximum limits.
    A maximum of 1.1 pints (0.2 lb. a.i./A) of Mustang may be applied per acre per season.
  3. Wait to release floodwater.
    Do not release floodwater into a treated field within seven days of an application.
  4. Practice good insecticide management.
    Applications of Mustang are effective in controlling major rice pests and others which pose an occasional problem. To protect bees, do not allow spray drift to contract hives or blooming weeds. Follow all labeled application information and precautions.
  5. Protect fish and aquatic life.
    Mustang is a restricted use pesticide due to its toxicity to fish and other aquatic organisms. Do not apply by ground equipment within 25 feet, or by air within 150 feet of lakes, reservoirs, rivers, permanent streams, marshes or natural ponds, estuaries or commercial fish farm ponds. Observe all Spray Drift Precautions contained in the product label.
