• Handle with care.
• May cause slight eye irritation.
• This product is moderately toxic to fish and toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Do not apply directly to open water.
• Beneficial Insects:

“Relatively harmless to Bees”

• GF-120 is relatively safe for contact with bees.
• GF-120 releases an ammoniac type compound which attracts fruitflies but is repellent to bees. It is therefor highly unlikely that bees will be attracted and killed by the bait.
• Notwithstanding, do not apply directly to foraging bees, or bee colonies.
• GF-120 is relatively harmless to beneficial insects such as Parasites, Predatory mites, Coccinellidae and Neuroptera.
• Store in a cool and dry place, away from food and feedstuffs.
• Keep out of reach of children, uninformed persons and animals.

VOORSORGMAATREëLS

• Voorkom bevriesing
• Berg altyd in die oorspronklike ge-etiketeerde houer.
• Vermy die inaseming van sproeinewel.
• Dra handskoene en 'n gesigskerm wanneer hanteer word.
• Vermy vel- en oogkontaminasie.  In geval van toevallige oogkontak, spoel oë met lopende water vir ongeveer 15 minute.  Verkry mediese hulp indien oogirritasie nie sou opklaar nie. 
• Moenie eet, drink of rook terwyl gemeng of toegedien word nie.
• Tydens vermenging of toediening moet die hande en gesig altyd gewas word voordat geëet, gedrink, gerook of die toilet besoek word.
• Vermy wegdrywing van spuitnewel na aangrensende plante, dammetjies en riviere.
• Maak toerusting skoon voordat vir ander middels gebruik word en gooi spoelwater weg waar dit nie plante, dammetjies en riviere, sal besoedel nie.
• Vernietig leë houers deur hulle eers te spoel en dan in die vuilgoed drom te plaas.
• Voorkom die besoedeling van voedsel, voer, drinkwater en eetgerei tydens opberging, hantering en wegdoening
• Was met water en seep in geval van toevallige kontak met vel.

WAARSKUWINGS

Onthoudingsperiode  -  Minimum tyd wat tussen die laaste toediening en oes moet verstryk:

• Alle gewasse 1 dag

• Hanteer die produk versigtig.
• Mag moontlike ligte oogirritasie veroorsaak.
• Voordelige Insekte:
• Hierdie produk is matig giftig vir vis en giftig vir ander waterorganismes. Moenie oor oop waterbronne toedien nie

"Relatief skadeloos vir bye"

• GF-120 is relatief veilig vir kontak met bye
• GF-120 stel 'n ammoniak-agtige verbinding vry wat vrugtevlieë aanlok maar afwerend is vir bye. Dit is dus hoogs onwaarskynlik dat bye aangelok en deur die lokaas gedood sal word.
• Moet egter nie direk op kolonies of aktiewe bye toedien nie.
• GF-120 is relatief veilig (skadeloos) vir voordelige insekte soos Parasiete, Predatormyte, Coccinellidae en Neuroptera.
• Berg in 'n koel droë plek en verwyderd vanaf voedsel en veevoer.
• Hou buite bereik van kinders, oningeligte persone en diere.

Directions For Use

DIRECTIONS FOR USE USE ONLY AS INDICATED

• GF 120 is a bait concentrate, which should first be diluted with water before being applied with a suitable sprayer  which is able to apply coarse droplets    See "General Instructions".
• Avoid the exclusive and repeated use of GF-120. Alternate with other registered products for fruitfly control.
• GF-120 has no significantly harmful effect on parasitic or predatory insects and mites such as ladybirds, lacewings, killer bugs, predatory mites etc 

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:

Mixing instrutions for GF-120:

• GF-120 is specifically formulated to have a high viscosity. This high viscosity of GF-120 extends the lifetime of the bait droplets after application and thereby ensures longer activity against fruit flies. All the components in GF-120 are soluble in water and when mixed, it will remain in solution. As a result of the high density of GF-120 compared to water, the mixing must enjoy special attention.
• Fill the sprayer about half with water of the total spray volume required.  Shake the sprayer  and slowly add the required amount of GF-120 filling the sprayer to the required spray volume.   Maintain shaking for a further 3-5 minutes to ensure that the GF-120 is in a homogeneous mixture before application begins. It is important to keep on moving the sprayer during application to ensure uniformity of the spray mixture.  (If this procedure is not followed, the GF-120 will, as a result of its high density, sink to the bottom of the tank without mixing or disolving.)
• Once diluted, GF-120 should be used within 24 hours.
• Do not mix GF-120 bait with any other product – not even wetters, stickers or buffers.

Application

• Preferably use a good sprayer and techniques to ensure that the correct dosage rate is applied in the most effective manner. A paint brush can also be used to splash the spray mixture to the stem and underside of the leaves.  (approximately 20 to 80 coarse droplets per square meter).
• GF-120 must be mixed at a rate of  20 -100 ml in 400 ml of water and applied at a rate of 60 ml spray  mixture per tree.  To reduce the possibility of unsightly droplet marks on the fruit or grapes in fruit trees or vineyards, a droplet size of 1 - 4 mm is recommended.
• When GF-120 is applied post harvest  or to non-bearing fruit trees or, vineyards or other plants providing shelter to fruit flies, a droplet size of 4 - 6 mm should be considered.  These larger droplets have a longer life and greater attractant potential as they act as a bait station.
• As fruit flies tend to seek shelter in protected parts of plants (on the underside of leaves and on inside leaves of the canopy), an effort must be made to apply the bait to these areas. This way the bait droplets are also protected against direct sunlight and rain which can extend their effectiveness.
•  Apply the GF-120 bait in a band of large droplets, as described above, approximately one metre above ground level, to at least one side of every tree. Application must be repeated every 7 - 14 days.

Note:  When recommended rates and droplet size are exceeded sooty mould may develop.

• Bait applications against fruit flies should be carried out througout the year with the shorter intervals during the summer months, repeat application every 7 - 14 days. During the winter months when populations are normally at their lowest in deciduous fruit and grapes, and there is no ripe or ripening fruit present, the intervals can be increased to 21 - 28 days.  Continue applications for citrus at
• 7 - 14 day intervals for as long as there is unharvested fruit on the trees.  Apply fruit fly bait during the winter preferably on warm, sunny days.
• The effect of rain:  Although GF-120 is more resistant to wash-off from dew or light rain than conventional baits, the efficacy of GF-120 will be impaired by persistent cycles or heavy dew,  rain or overhead irrigation, and will require a repeat application.
• To reduce the infestation level, ripe fruit and especially over-ripe fruit, should be removed from trees and the ground as quickly as possible and removed from the orchard.
• Mixed bait must be used within 24 hours.

Equipment cleaning

• Mixing and application equipment must be thoroughly cleaned after use.
• Microbial growth can develop on remaining residues in the sprayer.A triple rinse with warm water is sufficient. If material had been left in the equipment for 3 or more days, a first rinse with a 0.1% chlorine or bleach solution will remove any bacterial contamination.

GEBRUIKSAANWYSINGS GEBRUIK SLEGS SOOS AANGEDUI.

• GF-120 is 'n konsentraat lokmiddel wat eers met water verdun moet word voordat dit met 'n geskikte spuit wat growwe druppelgrootes kan spuit aangewend word.   Sien "Algemene Instruksies".
• Vermy die eksklusiewe en herhaaldelike gebruik van GF-120.  Wissel af met ander geregistreerde produkte vir vrugtevlieg beheer.
• GF-120 het nie 'n beduidend nadelige invloed op parasietiese en predatoriese insekte en myte soos skilpadkewers, goudogies, roofwantse, predatoriese myte, ens. nie.

ALGEMENE lNSTRUKSIES

Meng instuksies vir GF-120

• GF-120 is spesifiek geformuleer om 'n hoë viskositeit te hê. Die hoë viskositeit van GF-120 verleng die leeftyd van die lokaasdruppels na toediening en verseker sodoende langer aktiwiteit teen vrugtevlieë. Al die bestanddele in GF-120 is egter oplosbaar in water en wanneer dit eenmaal vermeng is sal dit in oplossing bly. As gevolg van die hoë digtheid van GF-120 in verhouding met die van water, moet die vermenging met water spesiale aandag geniet.
• Vul die spuit tot die helfte van die totale volume water benodig. Voeg die verlangde hoeveelheid GF-120 stadig by in die spuit terwyl die spuit aanhoudend beweeg word en die tenk tot die verlangde volume gevul word.  Handhaaf beweging vir 'n verdere 3- 5  minute om te verseker dat die GF-120 in 'n homogene oplossing is voordat toediening 'n aanvang neem. Dit is noodsaaklik dat die spuit aanhoedend tydens bespuiting beweeg word om eenvormigheid van die spiutmengsel te verseker (indien hierdie prosedure nie gevolg word nie sal die GF-120 as gevolg van die hoër digtheid as die water, na die bodem van die tenk afsak sonder om met die water te vermeng of daarin op te los).
• Na vermenging moet GF-120 binne 24 uur gebruik word.
• GF-120 lokmiddel moet met geen ander middel vermeng word nie - ook nie met benattings-, kleef- of buffermiddels nie.

Toediening

• Om optimum effektiwiteit van GF-120 te verseker moet verkieslik van 'n goeie spuit en tegnieke gebruik gemaak word om te verseker dat die regte dosis van GF-120 op die mees doeltreffende wyse toegedien word. Daar kan ook van 'n verfkwas gebruik gemaak word om die spuitmengsel aan die stam en onderkante van die blare aan te wend/spat.( omtrent 20 tot 80 growwe drupplels per vierkante meter)
• GF-120 moet teen 20 -100 ml in 400 ml  water vermeng word en teen 60 ml spuitmengsel per boom aangewend word. Om die moontlikheid van onooglike druppelvlekke op vrugte of druiwe, by vrugtebome en wingerde in drag te verlaag, word 'n druppelspektrum van 1 - 4 mm grootte aanbeveel.
• Wanneer GF-120 na-oes of op nie-draende vrugtebome en wingerde, of ander plante wat skuiling aan vrugtevlieë bied, toegedien word, moet 'n druppelgrootte van 4 - 6 mm oorweeg word. Die groter druppels het 'n langer leeftyd en groter lokvermoë en sal as lokstasie ("bait station") dien.
• Aangesien vrugtevlieë geneig is om meer beskutte dele van plante op te soek, moet gepoog word om die lokaas aan die onderkant van blare of op die binneste blaredek toe te dien. Sodoende, word die lokaasdruppels ook teen direkte sonlig en reën beskerm wat die doeltreffendheid verder kan verhoog.
• Dien GF-120 lokaas in 'n band van growwe druppels, soos hierbo beskryf, ongeveer een meter bo die grondoppervlak, aan minstens een kant van elke boom toe. Toedienings moet elke 7 - 14 dae herhaal word.  Nota:  Indien aanbevole dosis en druppelgrootte oorskry word mag "sooty mould" ontwikkel.
• Lokaasbehandelings teen vrugtevlieë moet deur die hele jaar volgehou word, met die korter intervalle gedurende die somermaande.  Herhaal toedienings gedurende somermaande elke 7 - 14 dae.  Gebruik slegs die langer intervalle van 21 tot 28dae in die wintermaande.   Handhaaf 7 - 14 dae intervalle vir sitrus wat nog nie geoes is nie, of waar daar nog vrugte aan die bome hang.  Dien vrugtevlieglokaas gedurende die wintermaande verkieslik op warm, sonnige dae toe.
• Die effek van reën:  Alhoewel GF-120 lokaas minder onderhewig is aan afwassing deur dou of ligte reën as konvensionele lokaasmengsels, sal voortdurende swaar dou, reën of oorhoofse besproeiing die doeltreffendheid van GF-120 benadeel en sal opvolgtoedienings vereis word.
• Om besmettingsdruk te verlaag moet ryp vrugte, veral oorryp vrugte aan bome en op die grond, so spoedig moontlik uit die boord verwyder word.
• Aangemaakte lokaas moet binne 24 uur gebruik word.

SKOONMAAK VAN TOERUSTING

• Meng- en toedieningstoerusting moet na gebruik deeglik skoon gemaak word.  Mikrobe-groei kan op lokaas-reste in die toerusting ontwikkel.  Drievoudige spoel met louwarm water is voldoende.  Indien aangemaakte lokaas vir 3 of meer dae in die toerusting bly staan het, moet die toerusting die eerste maal met 0.1% chloor of bleikmiddel gespoel word om enige bakteriese groei te verwyder.
