Did UW update/change the insecticide pdf? I pulled it up on my phone yesterday (looking for a Sevin alternative, not just for fun) and it’s either changed or I’m losing my mind. I remember seeing a column for the mode of action groups, more specific application sites (greenhouse, outdoors etc), and eriophyid mites being named as target pests. Also Forbid 4F (spiromesifen) and Pylon (chlorfenapyr) aren’t even listed, which seems odd.
Assuming that they did in fact change it and I’m not going senile in my 30’s, does someone have the previous version, and if so could you please post it?
Downloads here are from our server, they have not changed.

And the links there are off-site, so they can change.
