• A. True
• B. False
• C. Only for household use
• D. Only with supervisor approval

Answer: (A)

Pesticide labels are the binding instructions for use, and the most current label governs how you can apply the product. When a label is updated and the changes are stricter, you may follow the newer label because it reflects the latest safety and regulatory requirements. The newer labeling supersedes the old terms, so tighter restrictions (such as higher PPE, revised application rates, or longer restricted-entry intervals) apply and must be followed. Always use the product only in ways allowed by the current label for that product and pest, and switch to the newer labeling as soon as it’s in effect.
