When should you not spray to prevent drift?

• A. Winds over 10 mph
• B. Wind blowing toward sensitive areas
• C. Winds shifting
• D. All of the above

Answer: (D)

Drift risk rises with how the wind behaves. If the wind is blowing at 10 mph or more, spray droplets can travel farther and land off target. When the wind is directed toward sensitive areas, any spray you apply can quickly reach those areas and cause damage or contamination. Winds that are shifting change direction during the application, making it easy for spray to drift into unintended places at any moment. Because each of these conditions increases the chance of drift, the safe choice is to avoid spraying in all of them and wait for calmer, more favorable conditions. That’s why the correct approach is to not spray when winds are over 10 mph, when the wind is blowing toward sensitive areas, or when winds are shifting.
