Hazardous components greater than 1.0% (0.1% if carcinogen or suspected carcinogen)
Health Hazards: Laboratory studies have shown that petroleum distillates, similar to the one
in this product, can produce effects in male rats. The significance of these
affects are unlikely, due to a number of human studies which produced
evidence of such effects at normal occupational levels. Inhalation of high
concentrations of Ethane, 1-1-Difluoro- vapors is harmful and may cause
heart irregularities, unconsciousness, or death. Intentional misuse or
deliberate inhalation may cause death without warning. Causes
substantial, but temporary eye injury.
Signs/symptoms
of overexposure:
Dizziness, headaches, drowsiness, incoordination, loss of consciousness,
eye irritation.
Potential Health Effects:
Warning! Flammable! Contents under pressure, do not expose to fire or extreme heat.
* This item is NOT a carcinogen, but has been listed to aid in the identification of all pesticide active
ingredients in the product. Actual percentages for these active ingredients have been listed vs. percent
ranges. It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
Read label. Care should be taken to avoid depositing the product on exposed surfaces or introducing the
material in the air. Avoid contamination of food or food processing surfaces. This powdery spray leaves a
white residue. Should misapplication occur wipe off visible residue.
