  4. Notify workers of the REI if the label or WPS requires oral warning.
  5. Don the label-required PPE before mixing.
  6. Mix at the labeled rate only.
  7. Apply at the labeled rate only.
  8. Keep workers out of the application exclusion zone during application.
  9. Keep workers out of the treated area until the REI ends.
  10. Decontaminate PPE and equipment.
  11. Store the pesticide as the label requires.
