Void applications can be made behind veneers, piers, and chimney bases, into rubble foundations, into block voids and structural voids, wall voids, under slabs, stoops, porches or to the soil in crawlspaces, and other similar voids.
Spot treat floors, floor coverings, carpets, or rugs for flea and tick control; DO NOT treat entire floor area.
Use Rates:• For a 0.01% a.i. concentrate, use 0.25 fl. oz. Delta 4.75%
SC (7.5 mL) per gallon of water• For a 0.03% ai concentration, use 0.75 fl. oz. of Delta
4.75% SC (22.7 mL) per gallon of water.• For a 0.06% a.i. concentration, use 1.50 fl. oz. of Delta
4.75% SC (45.4 mL) per gallon of water.
How to ApplySpot Treatment: Apply Delta 4.75% SC using a low pressure system (do not exceed 50 psi at nozzle) with a fan-type nozzle to uniformly apply spot treatments in and around cupboards, and between, beneath and behind equipment or appliances.
In the home, all food processing surfaces and utensils must be covered before treatment or thoroughly washed following treatment. Cover exposed food or remove from area being treated.
Spray, Mist or Foam, Crack and Crevice, or Void Applications: Apply Delta 4.75% SC spray, mist or foam directly into cracks and crevice or voids where pests or their nests are found.
• Spray: Apply Delta 4.75% SC Spray Mixture to cracks and crevices in and around baseboards, floors, walls, appliances, areas around water and sewer pipes, and other voids with a low pressure system (do not exceed 50 psi at nozzle tip) using a pinpoint or variable pattern nozzle.
9
• Mist: Use appropriate mist generating equipment. Do not allow mist to drift out of void spaces into commonly occupied areas of structure.
• Foam: Use foam to treat structural voids and control pests in walls, under slabs, or other void areas. Using appropriate foam generating equipment, mix dilution with manufacturer’s specified volume of foaming agent and apply sufficient volume of foam.
When to ApplyApply when pests are seen or found. Treat areas that insects inhabit or where they are normally found. Use 0.25 to 1.5 fluid ounces of Delta 4.75% SC per gallon of water and apply to adequately cover 1000 square feet. Under conditions of severe pest infestation, when quick knockdown and/or longer residual control is desired, use 1.5 ounces of 0.06% Delta 4.75% SC per 1,000 sq. ft.
Treatments may be made at 21-day intervals or as necessary to maintain adequate control.
Restrictions: • Do not apply broadcast treatments to floors or floor
coverings. • Do not apply as a space spray. • Remove or tightly cover fish tanks and disconnect
aerators during application.• Keep people and pets away from sites of application until
treated area has dried. • When treating areas directly over your head, wear eye
protection (safety glasses, goggles, or face shield) and dust/mist mask or respirator.

FOOD/FEED HANDLING ESTABLISHMENTS Applications are permitted in food/feed and non-food/non-feed areas of food/feed handling and processing establishments as a general surface, spot or crack and crevice treatment to control of labeled pests.
Food/Feed handling establishments are defined as places other than private residences in which exposed food/feed is held, processed, prepared or served. Included also are areas for receiving, storing, packing (canning, bottling, wrapping, boxing), preparing, edible waste storage and enclosed processing systems (mills, dairies, edible oils, syrups) of food/feed. Serving areas where food/feed is exposed and the facility is in operation are also considered food/feed areas.
Non-Food/Non-Feed Areas: Areas include garbage rooms, lavatories, floor drains (to sewers), entries and vestibules, offices, locker rooms, machine rooms, boiler rooms, mop closets and storage (after packaging, canning or bottling). Treat any area that insects are observed in or where insects may enter.
General Surface Applications: Before application cover or remove all food/feed processing and/or handling equipment. After application, wash all equipment, benches, shelving and other surfaces that food/feed will contact in food/feed processing plants, cafeterias and similar facilities. Clean food/feed handling or processing equipment and rinse well with clean, fresh water. After application in bakeries, clean all food contact surfaces thoroughly with appropriate equipment.
Restrictions:• Do not use this application method in the food/feed handling areas of the facility when the facility is in operation or foods/feeds are exposed.
16
• Do not apply to food/feed products.• Spot or Crack & Crevice Applications: Except in federally
inspected meat and poultry plants, spot or crack and crevice applications may be made while the facility is in operation provided exposed food is covered or removed from area being treated prior to application.
• Restrictions:• Application is prohibited in Federally inspected meat and
poultry plants while such facility is in operation.• Do not apply to food or food-handling surfaces.• In the home, do not allow spray to contact food/feed
surfaces. If it does, clean surfaces with soap and water.
PEST CONTROL OUTDOORSApply Delta 4.75% SC as a perimeter treatment, residual spray or broadcast application to surfaces of buildings, lawns, grounds and ornamental plantings.

17
Where to ApplyApply as a perimeter treatment or residual spray around residential and non-residential settings. Treatments should begin at the first sighting of pests.
Residual Spray: Apply Delta 4.75% SC to surfaces on building exteriors, porches, patios and other structures, around door and windows, eaves and attic vents, utility entry points, soffit areas and other exterior openings (including foundation cracks or drilled holes) where pests enter the structure or where they have been seen or found, or can find shelter.
Perimeter Treatments: For best results, apply Delta 4.75% SC to areas where pests are seen and may find entrance. Treat the outside of the structure, including walls (to a height of 2 to 3 feet), around door and window frames, and soffits where pests are active or may enter or hide. Treat the soil, turf, or other ground covering adjacent to the structure (in a band up to 10 feet wide) where pests are seen, have been found, or can find shelter. In ant management programs, apply to flower, shrub or ornamental plant beds where ants may be nesting, find food or forage.
Restrictions;1. Do not water the treated area to the point of run-off2. Do not make applications during rain.3. Do not apply directly to impervious horizontal surfaces
such as sidewalks, driveways, and patios except as a spot or crack and crevice treatment. During application, do not allow pesticide to enter or run off into storm drains, drainage ditches, gutters, or surface waters.
4. All outdoor applications, if permitted elsewhere on this label, must be limited to spot or crack and crevice treatments only, except for the following permitted uses:a) Applications to soil or vegetation, as listed on this
label, around structures;

b) Applications to lawns, turf, and other vegetation, as listed on this label;
c) Applications to the side of a building, up to a maximum height of 3 feet above grade;
d) Applications to underside of eaves, soffits, doors, or windows permanently protected from rainfall by a covering, overhang, awning, or other structure;
e) Applications around potential pest entry points into buildings, when limited to a surface band not to exceed one inch in width;
f) 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 this 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.
Application is prohibited directly into sewers or drains, or to any area like a gutter where drainage to sewers, storm drains, water bodies, or aquatic habitat can occur. Do not allow the product to enter any drain during or after application.
Use Rates:• For a 0.01% dilution, use 0.25 fl. oz. Delta 4.75% SC (7.5
mL) per gallon of water• For a 0.03% dilution, use 0.75 fl. oz. of Delta 4.75% SC (22.7
mL) per gallon of water.• For a 0.06% dilution, use 1.50 fl. oz. of Delta 4.75% SC
(45.4 mL) per gallon of water.
How to Apply:Apply as a coarse low pressure (do not exceed 50 psi at nozzle tip) spray at the rate of 0.25 to 1.5 fluid ounces of
19
this product per 1,000 square feet of surfaces. Apply in a sufficient volume of water to provide adequate coverage but do not allow run-off to occur.
High volume applications using power sprayers: You must adjust the rate of product dilution to ensure the correct amount of the product (see Use Rate section above) is applied per 1,000 square feet of treated surface. For example, mixing 12.5 fluid ounces of this product in a 50 gallon tank, while using an application volume of 3.0 gallons per 1,000 square feet, will apply 0.75 fluid ounces of this product per 1,000 square feet. The table below gives examples of end use dilutions for typical power spraying application volumes.

Beetles (con’t) - wharf borers - Ambrosia beetles - bark beetlesCarpenter antsCarpenter bees
For treatment of wood infested with, or subject to infestation by, wood-infesting pests. Apply where pests have been seen or found, or can find shelter. Not for structural protection.
Use Rates:For a 0.06% dilution, use 1.50 fl. oz. of Delta 4.75% SC (45.4 mL) per gallon of water.
How to ApplyApply spray, mist, or foam as described below in the application section. Treatment dilutions may also be applied to wood surfaces by paint brush or roller. Do not contact treated surfaces until dry.
Apply when pests are seen or found. Treatments may be applied at 21-day intervals, or as necessary to maintain adequate control.
Foam Applications This product can be converted to foam and used to treat structural voids to control wood-infesting pests in walls, under slabs, within masonry voids, or in other void areas. Mix end-use dilution with manufacturer’s specified volume of foaming agent.

TURFGRASS APPLICATIONSDelta 4.75% SC controls listed insects on turfgrasses and ornamental plants in outdoor areas such as athletic fields, recreational areas, residential landscapes, parks, and public and commercial sites. Make application when insects first appear ensuring uniform coverage.
How to ApplyApply as a broadcast application using a minimum of 2 gallons of water per 1000 sq. ft. with a hydraulic boom-type sprayer or other suitable equipment for turfgrass pests. Follow the specified rates listed in the Application Rates for Turfgrass Sites table. Use higher volumes (4 to 10 gallons of water per 1000 sq. ft.) for areas of dense turfgrass and/or where turfgrass is mowed at greater heights. Control is achieved when the insecticide contacts the target pest. For best results on surface-feeding insects, do not irrigate or mow within 24 hours after application. For subsurface-feeding insects, apply 0.25 to 0.5 inch of water immediately after application. Do not allow people or pests into the treatment area until turfgrass has dried.
Tank Mixing: Delta 4.75% SC may be tank-mixed with other pest control or fertilizer products. Observe all restrictions, precautions and limitations appearing on the tank-mix partner label. To check for compatibility with Delta 4.75% SC, mix a small test sample of the products in the correct proportions with water in a quart jar. The use of silicone surfactants in tank mixtures with Delta 4.75% SC may enhance the control of some insects.
RESTRICTIONS: In New York State, product may not be applied to turf within 100 feet of a coastal marsh or stream that drains directly into a coastal marsh. For control of turf insects in New York, a second application may be made after two weeks if target insect activity persists.

SEED TREATMENTApply Delta 4.75% SC to protect stored grain seed against injury from stored grain insects listed above. Clean and treat seed storage areas prior to storage. If seed is insect infested, fumigate** to control existing populations and apply Delta 4.75% SC for residual protection. Delta 4.75% SC may also be used in conjunction with registered fungicide or other insecticide seed protectants, to protect barley, corn, oats, popcorn, rice, rye, sorghum and wheat seed during the seed treating process, and prior to bagging or placing in bulk seed storage at the rate of 0.5 ppm. When treating seed with other pesticide products, the treated seed should be properly tagged, indicating the seed should not be used for food, feed or oil purposes. Seed treated with Delta 4.75% SC alone is considered grain.
**Fumigate with EPA-registered fumigant according to manufacturer’s label recommendations.
GRAIN BINS AND WAREHOUSESDilute 0.25-1.5 fl. oz. of Delta 4.75% SC with water to make 1 gallon of solution. Before storing or handling grain, apply finished spray to equipment, wall and floor surfaces of grain bins and warehouses at the rate of 1 gallon per 1000 sq. ft. but do not allow run-off to occur. Apply after equipment bins and buildings have been thoroughly cleaned. Empty bins or warehouses should be fumigated with an EPA registered fumigant according to the manufacturer’s label recommendations as well as areas that are difficult to get into. Use Delta 4.75% SC as a perimeter treatment to prevent infestation of these structures. Apply to areas where pests are seen or may find entrance. Treat a band of soil or lawn up to 6-10 feet wide around and adjacent to structures and treat the foundation to a height of 2 to 3 feet. Mix 0.25-1.5 fl. oz. of Delta 4.75% SC with water to
40
make 1 gallon of solution. Apply as a coarse spray at a rate of 1 gallon per 1000 sq. ft. Thoroughly and uniformly wet the barrier area but do not allow run-off to occur.
Directions below are for Use as a Coating Additive ONLY
PAINT ADDITIVE USEDelta 4.75% SC may be mixed with latex coatings and oil-based coatings such as stains, varnishes and sealers for use to kill crawling and flying insects when exposed to treated surfaces.
Note: To ensure product efficacy, do not prepare more than the amount of latex coating that can be applied within 3 hours of mixing. For oil-based coating, stains, varnish or sealers, the amount of coating formulated should not exceed the amount that can be applied within 6 hours.
Restrictions: Do not allow children or pets to enter the treated area until surfaces are dry.
Mixing Instructions: Add 1 2/3 fl. oz. to 1 gallon [8 1/3 fl. oz. to 5 gallons] of latex coating (water base), oil base coating, and stains or sealers. Mix well to insure proper dilution.

Delta 4.75% SC may be used inside residential buildings, as well as in and around carports, garages, storage sheds, unoccupied horse stables and pet kennels.
Pet Kennels: For residual control of crawling and flying insects in and around these structures, apply as cracks and crevices or spot treatment. Optimal control results if facilities to be treated are clean, and coated surfaces are cleaned regularly (every 21 days). Apply only to areas of facility where animals are not present. Allow coating to dry before allowing re-entry of animals into treated areas. Do not apply to animal feed or watering equipment.
43
Food/Feed Handling Establishments: For control of all labeled pests, applications are permitted in food/feed and non-food/non-feed areas of food/feed handling and processing establishments as spot or crack and crevice treatment.
Food/Feed handling establishments are defined as places other than private residences in which exposed food/feed is held, processed, prepared or served. Included also are areas for receiving, storing, packing (canning, bottling, wrapping, boxing), preparing, edible waste storage and enclosed processing systems (mills, dairies, edible oils, syrups) of food/feed. Serving areas where food/feed is exposed and the facility is in operation are also considered food/feed areas.
Non-Food/Non-Feed Areas: Examples of non-food/non-feed areas include garbage rooms, lavatories, floor drains (to sewers), entries and vestibules, offices, locker rooms, machine rooms, boiler rooms, mop closets and storage (after packaging, canning or bottling). All areas that insects inhabit or through which insects may enter should be treated.
Note: Do not use this application method in the food/feed handling areas of the facility when the facility is in operation or foods/feeds are exposed. Do not apply directly to food/feed products. Cover or remove all food/feed processing and/or handling equipment during application. After application in food/feed processing plants, cafeterias and similar facilities wash all equipment, benches, shelving and other surfaces which food/feed will contact.

Application For Outdoor/Perimeter Pests
Pests Use InstructionsAnts, roaches and other listed crawling pests
Apply as a residual spray and/or perimeter treatment around the infested structure as described above.Locate and treat ant nests if possible. Follow trails of foraging worker ants and inspect for likely nest sites. If ants are nesting in soil, drench or inject the nest and surrounding soil.Foliar applications to landscape ornamentals will control aphids, scaleinsects, and other plant-sucking insects and limit the production ofhoneydew (an important food source for ant populations). Apply a light mist of the dilute spray, and do not allow excess run-off. Treat thoroughly for good coverage, including the underside of leaves.It is recommended to remove or prune away any shrubbery, bushes, or tree branches touching the structure. Vegetation touching the structure may offer a route of entry for ants into the structure, allowing ants to avoid contact with the treatment.
Occasional invaders including multi-colored Asian lady beetle, elm leaf beetle, boxelder bug, and brown marmorated stinkbug.
Apply directly to insects that have congregated around doors, windows and similar areas where they may enter the structure. Apply a perimeter treatment as described above.For best results, treat trees and shrubs infested with boxelder bugs, elm leaf beetles, and other occasional invading species early in the season. [Tree spraying may require ornamental license - check with your local regulator].
Fleas and Ticks(including ticks that may transmit Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever)
Apply as a coarse wet spray to areas where fleas and ticks are most likely to be found, such as dog houses, kennels, runways, along paths or trails, under plants, shrubs, bushes, trees, or other shaded, moist areas where pests may be found.Treat the entire area where these pests could be present. Fleas and ticks may be re-introduced from surrounding areas by host animals.
Mosquitoes Treat with spray or mist around landscape plants, turf and ground cover, under decks, around building foundations and other places where mosquitoes may rest.
Fire Ants Apply as a mound drench. Dilute 1.5 oz per one gallon of water. Gently sprinkle 1 to 2 gallons of the diluted insecticide over the surface of each mound and surrounding area to a 2-foot diameter.For best results, apply in cool weather, 65 to 80°F or in early morning or late evening hours. Treat new mounds as they appear.
(continued)
13
Application For Outdoor/Perimeter PestsScorpions Treat areas where scorpions may hide. Treat known or suspected harborages on and around
exterior walls. Apply spot treatments into cracks, crevices, weep holes or other access points into hollow block walls or masonry veneer. Spray around and beneath stones and along rocky areas.Scorpions will often harbor beneath the bark on trees, so inspect these areas and treat as required. When possible, remove piles of debris and building materials near the exterior wall that can harbor the pests. Apply a perimeter treatment to the exterior walls and adjacent soil. You may treat around piles of firewood, but do not treat firewood with this product.
Hornets, wasps, and yellow jackets Make a pin stream application directly to hornet or yellow jacket nests. To reduce sting threat, make applications in the evening when the insects are inside the nest. For paper wasps, use a pin stream or fan spray and apply over surface of exposed nest.Remove and destroy treated nests to prevent emergence of newly emerged insects. If removal is not possible, retreat nests as needed.
Centipedes, millipedes, pillbugs, sow bugs, springtails.
Apply perimeter treatment to reduce the number of insects entering the structure. Thoroughly treat mulched areas. Correcting moisture problems around the structure will reduce pest pressure.
House flies and Cluster flies Apply low pressure (do not exceed 50 psi at nozzle tip) mist or spray to outside of surfaces of buildings, porches, patios, garages, fences, and other areas where house flies rest.Cluster flies: Treat in late summer or fall, just before cluster flies begin looking for winter shelter. Spray siding, eaves, around windows and doors, and window screens. To help reduce infestations, treat cracks and crevices, attics and other indoor winter hiding places.
WOOD INFESTING PESTSApply Delta 4.75% SC as a perimeter treatment, residual spray or broadcast application to surfaces of buildings, lawns, grounds and ornamental plantings.

Application For Wood-Infesting PestsPests Use Instructions
Drywood termites & wood-infesting beetles(Not for Structural Protection)
Galleries and structural voids: Treat by applying sprays, mists, or foams.Locate galleries by using visual signs (frass or pellets, blistered wood,emergence or clean out holes), the presence of live insects, mechanical sounding techniques, or listening devices (e.g., stethoscopes, acoustic emission detectors). Penetrate the gallery system by drilling holes to receive the injector tip or treatment tool. Distribute drill holes to adequately cover the gallery system. Apply as a low pressure (do not exceed 50 psi at nozzle tip) spray, or by misting or, where appropriate, by foaming. • Do not treat to the point where runoff is detected from adjacent holes.• Avoid drilling where electrical wiring, plumbing lines, etc. are located.• Do not apply where electrical shock hazards exist.• Drill holes in commonly occupied areas must be sealed after treatment.Wood surfaces: Treat by spray or mist or, where appropriate, foam applications. For inaccessible surfaces, drill and treat the interior of structural voids. Surfaces treated may include exposed wooden surfaces in crawlspaces, basements, or attics. Wooden exterior surfaces such as decks, fencing, or siding, structural voids, channels in damaged wood, in spaces between wooden members of a structure, and junctions between wood and foundations. Apply by brushing or as a coarse, low pressure (do not exceed 50 psi at nozzle tip) spray to the wood surface; apply sufficient volume to cover the surface to the point of wetness, but avoid applying to the point of runoff.When spraying wood surfaces overhead in living areas, cover surfaces below the treated area with plastic sheeting or similar material. Do not contact treated surfaces until spray deposits have dried.

Application For Wood-Infesting PestsPests Use Instructions
Carpenter ants Homes and other structures: Apply around doors and windows and other places where carpenter ants may enter. Spray or foam into cracks and crevices, or spray, mist or foam through small drilled holes into voids where ants or their nests are present. Use enough spray or foam to cover the area, but do not exceed 1 gallon of dilute suspension per 1,000 square feet of treated surface.It is recommended to remove or prune away any shrubbery, bushes, or tree branches touching the structure. Vegetation touching the structure may offer a route of entry for ants into the structure, allowing ants to avoid contact with the treatment.Exterior ant nests: Inside trees, utility poles, fencing and decking materials and similar structural members, drill to find the interior infested cavity and inject spray, mist, or foam using a treatment tool with a backsplash guard.
Tunneling in soil: Apply as a soil drench or inject the dilution or foam in the soil at intervals of 8 to 12 inches. Use 1 gallon of dilution per 8 square feet.Treat along the edges of walls, driveways or other hard surfaces where ants are tunneling beneath the surface.Protecting firewood from carpenter ants: Treat soil beneath firewood before stacking at 1 gallon of dilution per 8 square feet. Do not treat firewood with this product.
Carpenter bees Apply as a spray or mist, or sufficient volume of foam, directly into gallery entrance holes. Leave entrance open to be sure that returning adult bees are killed. When there is no longer any insect activity, the entrance hole may be sealed with a suitable sealant.Exterior wood surfaces may be treated by general surface application to prevent nest cavity excavation by adult carpenter bees.
TURFGRASS APPLICATIONSDelta 4.75% SC controls listed insects on turfgrasses and ornamental plants in outdoor areas such as athletic fields, recreational areas, residential landscapes, parks, and public and commercial sites. Make application when insects first appear ensuring uniform coverage.
How to ApplyApply as a broadcast application using a minimum of 2 gallons of water per 1000 sq. ft. with a hydraulic boom-type sprayer or other suitable equipment for turfgrass pests. Follow the specified rates listed in the Application Rates for Turfgrass Sites table. Use higher volumes (4 to 10 gallons of water per 1000 sq. ft.) for areas of dense turfgrass and/or where turfgrass is mowed at greater heights. Control is achieved when the insecticide contacts the target pest. For best results on surface-feeding insects, do not irrigate or mow within 24 hours after application. For subsurface-feeding insects, apply 0.25 to 0.5 inch of water immediately after application. Do not allow people or pests into the treatment area until turfgrass has dried.
16
Tank Mixing: Delta 4.75% SC may be tank-mixed with other pest control or fertilizer products. Observe all restrictions, precautions and limitations appearing on the tank-mix partner label. To check for compatibility with Delta 4.75% SC, mix a small test sample of the products in the correct proportions with water in a quart jar. The use of silicone surfactants in tank mixtures with Delta 4.75% SC may enhance the control of some insects.
RESTRICTIONS: In New York State, product may not be applied to turf within 100 feet of a coastal marsh or stream that drains directly into a coastal marsh. For control of turf insects in New York, a second application may be made after two weeks if target insect activity persists.
