The US-EPA has renewed an emergency exemption use permit (Section 18) for the neonicotinoid dinotefuran for control of the brown marmorated stink bug on apples, peaches and nectarines. This was submitted as a regional request and applies to the mid Atlantic states of DE, MD, NC, NY, NJ, PA,VA and WV.

Dinotefuran is a neonicotinoid sold under the trade names of Scorpion 35SL (Gowan) and Venom 70SG (Valent USA). Regardless of the product used, a maximum of 0.604 lbs[AI]/acre/season will be allowed, which is equivalent to 24 fl oz of Scorpion or 13.5 oz of Venom. The preharvest interval for both products is 3 days. Scorpion is labeled at 8 to 12 fl oz per acre (0.203 – 0.304 lbs[AI]/A), and Venom is labeled at 4 to 6.75 oz/acre (0.179 to 0.302 lbs[AI]/A). Regardless of the rate used, a maximum of two applications per season is allowed, along with a 12-hr re-entry interval and a 3-day preharvest interval. When applying either of these materials for BMSB control on apples, growers must have possession of the Section 18 label.

A Section 18 renewal request for the pyrethroid bifenthrin was submitted at the same time as the dinotefuran request, but the bifenthrin request has not yet been approved.
