Technical Specifications

  • Application Method
    Ground - Best results will be obtained when application is made during the early evening. Apply as a broadcast application in sufficient water to ensure thorough coverage of the foliage. Ensure uniform application. To avoid streaked, uneven or overlapped application, use appropriate marking devices. Coarse sprays are less likely to drift, so avoid combinations of pressure and nozzle type that will result in fine particles (mist).
  • Approved Use

    Refer to the Controlled Pests list for the full list of pests.
  • Rates

    Dependent on pest. Use as indicated on product label.
  • Mixing Instructions
    1) Lorsban mixes readily with water to form a suspension. Do not apply Lorsban with liquid fertilizer or oil as a carrier.
    2) Fill the spray tank 1/3 full of water. Activate the agitation system.
    3) Add the required number of water-soluble packets to the spray tank. Complete filling the spray tank while the water-soluble packets dissolve and the Lorsban disperses. Before beginning to spray, make sure the Lorsban has dispersed and the water-soluble packets have dissolved. Maintain sufficient agitation during both mixing and application to ensure uniformity of the spray mixture.
    4) Depending on the water temperature and degree of agitation, the water-soluble packets and Lorsban should be completely dispersed within approximately 5 minutes from the time they were added to the water.
    5) Lorsban contains a wetting agent. Do not use additional wetting agents, spreaders or stickers.
