Why switch to an electric heat pump? We asked

“If use of this product had not
been approved, farmers in these
com-growing areas of our state
would have been left without the
tools they need to protect their
crops," Hightower said. “This
exemption allows bifenthrin, com-
monly known as Capture 2EC,
to be used to control Banks grass
mites and two-spotted spider
mites on 15,000 acres of hybrid
seed corn and popcorn.
“Controlling the mites is crucial
because historically they have been
a serious problem in the mild
climate of South Texas where they
reduce plant yields by sucking the
juices from the leaves of com
plants," Hightower said.
The Texas Department of Agri-
culture requested a crisis exemption
for use of Capture from the U.S.

Without the exemption, use of
Capture would be illegal.
Because of environmental risk,
TDA and EPA have placed several
restrictions on use of the pest-
icide. No applications can be made
where runoff is likely to occur to
aquatic habitats because bifenthrin
is highly toxic to fish and other
aquatic organisms. Also, no one
can enter a field for at least 24
hours after application of the chem-
ical without special protective
clothing. Rotated crops may be
planted no sooner than 30 days
after the last application of Capture,
and the pesticide must be applied
at least 30 days before harvest.
Other restrictions require that
applications be made by or under
the supervision of certified appli-
cators, that the existing label dir-
ections and restrictions be followed
and no domestic livestock be allowed
to graze treated fields prior to
harvest.
