Milestone™ Herbicide Update


Dow AgroSciences recently informed you of the approval from the Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) to expand on the Milestone labeled weeds controlled.  There has been an addition of 13 weeds to the main weed chart and 12 additional weeds in a new section created specifically for Invasive Plant Management.  The final administrative steps have been completed and  the label  is posted on our website at www.ivmexperts.ca.

To help our customers better manage the time between application and when they can enter the site, Dow AgroSciences has applied to amend the label to add the statement 'or until sprays have dried'.  Our application has been approved and the amended label will now read:

Worker reentry - Do not enter or allow worker entry to a treated area for 12 hours following application, or until sprays have dried.

There are several administrative steps between PMRA and Dow AgroSciences that the label will be going through in the coming months before this amended statement will be included on the label available on our website.

Dow AgroSciences  is applying  to amend an error in the current spot application mixing chart found on the label.  The correct Mixing Chart for Individual Plant or Spot/Strip Applications is:
