Chronic Effects of Overexposure: This product does not contain any ingredients designated by
IARC, NTP, ACGIH or OSHA as probable or suspected human carcinogens.
Other Toxic Effects: Inhalation of product may aggravate existing chronic respiratory problems such
as asthma, emphysema or bronchitis. Skin contact may aggravate existing skin disease.
Signs and Symptoms: Have the product container or label with you when calling a poison control
center or doctor or going for treatment.
SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
Ingestion: Immediately call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice. DO NOT induce
vomiting unless directed to do so by a physician or poison control center. Have a person sip a glass of
water if able to swallow. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Skin Contact: Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin immediately with plenty of water for 15-20
minutes. Call a poison control center or doctor for treatment advice.
Eye Contact: Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15-20 minutes. Remove contact
lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Call a poison control center or
doctor for treatment advice.
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give arti-
ficial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth if possible. Call a poison control center or doctor for further
treatment advice.
Note to Physician: There is no specific antidote. All treatment should be based on observed signs and
symptoms of distress in the patient. Consideration should be given to the possibility that overexposure
to materials other than this product may have occurred.
SECTION 5: FIRE AND EXPLOSION INFORMATION
Flammability:
Combustion: Will form dust explosive mixtures in air. Dust explosive rating of ST-1 (KsT=165 bar-
meter per second).
Flash Point (Method): N/A
Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, alcohol foam, water spray, carbon dioxide (CO2)
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Firefighters should wear NIOSH/MSHA approved self-contained
breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Keep unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area
and deny entry. Stay upwind if possible. Keep out of low areas. Persons who may have been exposed
to contaminated smoke should be immediately examined by a physician and checked for symptoms of
poisoning. The symptoms should not be mistaken for heat exhaustion or smoke inhalation.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Like all organic and most dry chemicals, as a powder or dust,
this product (when mixed with air in critical proportions and in the presence of an ignition source) may
present an explosion hazard.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
General and Disposal
Evacuation Procedures and Safety: Personnel handling this material should be thoroughly trained to
handle spills and releases. Wear appropriate gear for the situation. See Personal Protection information
in Section 8.
Cleanup and Disposal of Spill: Sweep up and place in an appropriate closed container (see Section
7: Handling and Storage). No sparking tools should be used. Avoid creation of dusty conditions. Clean
up residual material by washing area with water and detergent. Collect washings for disposal.
Decontaminate tools and equipment following cleanup.
Spill or Leak Procedures
Containment of Spill: Stop leak if it can be done without risk. Follow procedure under Cleanup and
Disposal of Spill.
Environmental and Regulatory Reporting: Do not flush to drain. If spilled on the ground, the affected
area should be scraped clean and placed in an appropriate container for disposal. Prevent material from
entering public sewer system or any waterway. Spills may be reportable to the National Response
Center (800-424-8802) and to state and /or local agencies.

SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling Procedures: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN AND ANIMALS
Personnel handling this product should be thoroughly trained as to its hazards. Use nonsparking tools
and grounded/bonded equipment and containers when transferring. Do not ingest. Do not breathe dust
or mists. Avoid getting material on clothing. Use handling, storage and disposal procedures that will
prevent contamination of water, food or feed.
THIS PRODUCT MAY PRESENT A DUST EXPLOSION HAZARD
Dry powders can build static electricity charges when subjected to the friction of conveying, mixing or
sliding. Provide adequate precautions, such as electrical grounding, or inert atmospheres when material
is used in the presence of flammable materials to prevent ignition.
It is recommended that all dust control equipment and material transport systems involved in handling
of this product contain explosion relief vents or explosion suppression system or an oxygen deficient
environment. In addition, all conductive elements of the system that contact this material should be
electrically bonded and grounded. This powder should not be flowed through non-conductive ducts or
pipes. Use only appropriately classed electrical equipment.
Storing Procedures: Do not store in or around the home. Store unused product in a cool, ventilated,
dry, locked area. Never transfer this product to another container for storage. Do not allow prolonged
storage in areas where temperatures frequently exceed 115掳F (46掳C).
Work/Hygienic Procedures: Personal hygiene is an important work practice exposure control measure
and the following general measures should be taken when working with or handling this material:
Wash hand before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet.
Remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing.
Remove Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) immediately after handling this product. Wash the out-
side of gloves before removing.
Discard clothing and other absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contaminated with
this product鈥檚 concentrate. Do not reuse them. Follow manufacturer鈥檚 instructions for cleaning/maintaining
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). If no such instructions for washables, use detergent and hot
water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval (REI) of 12 hours.
Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through
drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. For any requirements specific to
your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
Min/Max Storage: Min Temp: No data Max Temp: 46掳C
SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls: Where engineering controls are indicated by use conditions or a potential for
excessive exposure exists, the following traditional exposure control techniques may be used to effec-
tively minimize employee exposures: general area dilution/exhaust ventilation.
Protective Clothing: Applicators and other handlers must wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants,
waterproof gloves, shoes plus socks and chemical resistant headgear for overhead exposure.
Eye/Face Protection: Eye and face protection requirements will vary dependent upon work environ-
ment conditions and material handling practices. Appropriate ANSI Z87 approved equipment should be
selected for the particular use intended for this material.
