Signage
Signage is about providing signs - in public areas or areas near dwellings or schools - that indicate that spraying is being, or has been carried out in or nearby that area.
Use signs to clearly show agrichemical applications when within:
- 10m of public land (roads) when a shelter belt is giving effective protection
- 30m of public land (roads) when no shelter belt is present.
Do not have these signs as permanent fixtures - put the sign(s) out when you start spraying and remove when you've finished.
And use these signs whether you are applying a foliar feed or a hazardous insecticide - the person who is going to complain won't know what you are spraying, just that you are spraying!
