Imidan has a 7 day REI and a 4 day post-harvest.
I'm confused.

Murph,
Not sure what REI means?
Re-entry interval: the time before you can go back into the field
without protective gear.
Sherwin's saying that the label says it isn't safe to go into the
field unprotected for a week after the pesticide's used, but it's safe
to eat the apples within 4 days,
I am also confused; that doesn't make any sense.
