Restrictions:<br />

• Rainfall: Rain within 4 hours may reduce effectiveness.<br />

• Re-entry Interval: DO NOT re-enter treated areas until sprays have dried.<br />

• Re-cropping Interval: No recropping interval is indicated. Conduct a bioassay when converting pasture to annual<br />

crop land to determine tolerance to potential residues in the soil. The following restrictions apply to all plant materials,<br />

or manure from animals fed material, from areas treated with Navius within the previous 18 months:<br />

º DO NOT apply to land used for growing susceptible crops. Manure may only be applied on rangeland.<br />

º DO NOT use as mulch or compost and do not apply directly on or around desirable plants.<br />

º Must only be used on-farm.<br />

• Grazing Restrictions: No grazing or haying restrictions for non-lactating or lactating animals (including cattle, horses,<br />

sheep, and goats) when used as directed. Grazing animals do not have to be moved off the pasture or rangeland<br />

before, during or after application.<br />

• Aerial Application: May be applied by air.<br />

• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. May be frozen.<br />

• Buffer Zones:<br />

º Contact the Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment for permits to apply within 50 m of water.<br />

º Hand-held or backpack sprayers and spot treatments are exempt from buffer zone requirements.<br />

Application method<br />

Buffer Zones (metres † ) Required for the Protection of:<br />

Aquatic Habitats of Depths<br />

Terrestrial habitat**<br />

Less than 1 m<br />

Greater than 1 m<br />

Ground 5 2 45<br />

Fixed wing aircraft 250 100 800<br />

Helicopter 80 45 800<br />

See page 35 for an explanation of the different habitats.<br />

* For ground vehicle mounted booms, buffer zones can be reduced by 70% when using shrouds and by 30%<br />

when using cones mounted less than 12 inches from the crop canopy.<br />

** Terrestrial buffers are not required for transport and utility rights of way. Aquatic buffers still apply.<br />

†<br />

Distance is measured as metres from the downwind edge of the spray boom to sensitive habitat.<br />

Sprayer Cleaning:<br />

Navius can cause severe injury to sensitive plants at very low concentrations. Use ‘Method A’ on pages 9 and 10 to clean<br />

sprayers immediately after using Navius or directions on the label.<br />

Hazard Rating:<br />

Warning - contains the allergens milk and sulfites<br />
