FLASHPOINT: 111掳 Setaflash FLAMMABILITY LIMITS: UFL: N/A LFL: N/A
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Foam CO2 or dry chemical.
DEGREE OF FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD: Moderately Combustible. Overheated, sealed containers are an
explosion hazard. Vapors which form inside empty containers may also present an explosion hazard during a fire.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Isolate fire area. Evacuate downwind residents and all areas where
fire seriously threatens the product containers. Wear full protective clothing including rubber boots, neoprene
gloves and self-contained breathing apparatus. Attempt to keep drums cool. Do no breathe or contact smoke or
vapors. CONDITIONS TO AVOID (INCOMPATIBILITY): Heat and fire. Thermal decomposition and burning
may produce toxic by-products and an explosion hazard. HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS:
Carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide. Chlorine and hydrogen chloride may be formed.

Section VI - Health Hazard Information
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTRY: Acute and chronic effects from overexposure may result from inhalation and
ingestion.
ACUTE EFFECTS FROM OVEREXPOSURE: Data available to date on human exposure suggests that permethrin
does not produce skin sensations (feelings of numbing and tingling), although other pyrethroids have been known to
cause these reactions. If they occur, these sensations subside and disappear within a few hours. Overexposure of
animals to permethrin via inhalation has also produced hyperactivity and hypersensitivity.
CHRONIC EFFECTS FROM OVEREXPOSURE: In studies with laboratory animals, permethrin did not cause
reproductive toxicity or teratogenicity. An overall lack of genotoxicity has been demonstrated in mutagenicity
testing with permethrin.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: None presently known
CARCINOGENICITY: NTP: No IARC: No OSHA: No

Section VII - Precautions for Safe Handling/Use
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
FIRST AID:
INGESTION: If swallowed, immediately call a poison control center or doctor. Do not induce vomiting unless told
to do so by a poison control center or doctor. Do not give any liquid to the person. Do not give anything by mouth
to an unconscious person..
EYES: 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.
SKIN: Remove contaminated clothing and wash with soap and water immediately. Obtain medical attention if
irritation persists.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult or if any discomfort persists, obtain medical attention.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: This product contains petroleum distillates 鈥? vomiting may cause aspiration pneumonia.
Consideration should be given to gastric lavage with an endotracheal tube in place. Treatment is controlled removal
of exposure followed by symptomatic and supportive care.
PROTECTIVE REQUIREMENTS:
VENTILATION: Thoroughly ventilate all transport vehicles prior to unloading. Store in a cool, dry, well-
ventilated place. General exhaust ventilation is considered sufficient.
WORK CLOTHING: Wear long-sleeved coveralls or uniform, cap, safety shoes and neoprene gloves.
EYE PROTECTION: Where potential of splashing exists, or contact with mist, protective goggles and face shield
should be worn. A source of clean water for flushing the eyes should be nearby.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION.: Use only NIOSH/MESA approved respirator.
GLOVES: Where chemical protective gloves made of neoprene when handling this product.
Section VIII - Environmental and Disposal Information
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
STORAGE AND HANDLING: Store in a cool, dry place and avoid excess heat. Store in original container only.
Keep out of reach of children. Do not get in the eyes, on skin, or on clothing. After use, wash hands and other
exposed skin prior to smoking or consuming food or beverages. Shower after handling or applying the product. Do
not put concentrate or dilute material into food or drink containers. Do not contaminate other pesticides, fertilizers,
water, food or feed by storage or disposal.
SPILL OR LEAK: Isolate and post spill area. Keep away from ignition sources. Wear prescribed protective
clothing and equipment. Keep material out of streams and sewers. Contain and absorb spilled material with a solid
absorbent such as sand, cat litter, commercial clay or other suitable absorbent. Use caustic or soda ash with alcohol
(methanol, ethanol or isopropanol) to neutralize spill area. Place in an approved drum and dispose of material
following the method outlined below under "Waste Disposal". To decontaminate spill area, tools and equipment,
wash with a suitable solution (e.g. organic solvent, detergent, bleach or caustic) and dispose of solution following
the method outlined below under "Waste Disposal".
WASTE DISPOSAL: Open dumping or burning of this material is prohibited. An acceptable method of disposal is
to burn in an incinerator in accordance with all local, state and federal environmental laws, rules, standards and
regulations. Because acceptable methods of disposal may vary by location and because regulatory requirements
may change, the appropriate regulatory agencies should be contacted prior to disposal. Steel containers which
contained these materials must be crushed and disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Do not cut or weld steel containers.
