Incorrect or Invalid Quantity Applied | |
|---|---|
| Reason | Explanation/Solution |
| Amount of product + diluent is reported. | Report the undiluted amount of each product; that is the amount taken from the product container. |
| Decimal point is in the wrong place in the number. | Carefully write or enter the amounts applied. |
| Applicator cannot determine the amount of product, in mixtures, after dilution. | Record the amount of the product used prior to dilution. If the whole mix is not used or is used on different properties, then adjust the pre-mix amount by multiplying by the percentage of the mix actually used for the application. |
| The amount of active ingredient is reported. | Report the amount of pesticide product applied, not the active ingredient. You do not need to convert the product amount into amount of active ingredient. |
