Most growers recommend the Bayer 3in1. I recently used that stuff you posted on my Sarracenia and have seen no I'll effect.

when someone has an answer they will give you one?

Based on the ingredients, it looks like overpriced sulphur water.

Is daconil fungicide safe?

Sarracenia are tough and I've not yet used any pesticide or fungicide at the recommended dosage (on full grown plants) and had any issues, so I'd guess that stuff would be safe to use on your pitcher plants and the recommended dosage.

So it might be safe? Am I taking a risk?

You're always taking a risk when using chemicals on carnivorous plants. But I've heard of many growers using it and things turning out fine. Just be prepared for the plants to possibly look pretty bad for a couple of weeks after application, although that's mostly for sundews... you should be fine though.
