What is the REI for DePesto?

• A. 0 hours
• B. 12 hours
• C. 24 hours
• D. 48 hours

Answer: (B)

REI, or Restricted Entry Interval, is the minimum time that must pass after an herbicide application before workers can re-enter a treated area without PPE beyond what the label requires. It’s determined by the product label’s safety assessment and can vary from product to product. For DePesto, the label specifies a 12-hour REI. That means after application, entry is restricted for 12 hours unless the label indicates you may re-enter with the required PPE. This duration reflects the product’s hazard to people who enter treated areas, and it is the guidance you must follow to protect workers. The other timeframes (0, 24, or 48 hours) would not align with what the DePesto label requires, since the label defines the specific REI you must observe. Remember, the REI is separate from harvest intervals and always comes from the product label.
