APOLLO LABEL CHANGE

The EPA and the NYS DEC have granted AgrEvo a label change for Apollo acaricide that extends its window of application on apples until 45 days before harvest. The previous label restricted its use to no later than Tight Cluster. Delayed dormant or early season applications may not effectively control twospotted spider mites invading trees later in the summer. Our previous advice on maintaining a sensible acaricide rotation that avoids Apollo or Savey in the same block for 2 consecutive years, continues to apply for this new use. Apollo's PHI on pears, peaches, cherries, and apricots remains at 21 days.
