Warning Statements:
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: This product is an organophosphate (cholinesterase-inhibiting) insecticide. Atropine is antidotal and should be given in multiple
doses as necessary until the patient is atropinized. In severe cases 2-PAM may be given provided therapy begins within 24 hours of exposure. Monitor
serum and RBC cholinesterase. Morphine, theophylline, aminophylline, phenothiazines, reserpine, furosemide, or ethacrynic acid are contraindicated in
organophosphate poisonings. Administer intravenous fluids cautiously, if needed, to correct dehydration. Symptoms of cholinesterase inhibition can
include headache, dizziness, blurred vision, weakness, nausea, cramps, diarrhea, discomfort in the chest, nervousness, sweating, miosis, tearing,
salivation, pulmonary edema, uncontrollable twitches, convulsions, coma, and loss of reflexes and sphincter control.
Potential Adverse Health Effects: Contains Naphthalene, which has been determined by IARC to be a possible human carcinogen (Group 2B).
Eye Contact: Moderate eye injury
Skin Contact: Irritation may occur. The most likely route of entry is skin contact.
Ingestion: Contact a physician if material is ingested. The medical emergency telephone number is 1-800-301-7976.

FLASH POINT (掳F/Test Method):
FLAMMABLE LIMITS (LEL & UEL): None established
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide (CO2).
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Thermal decomposition products include, but are not limited to, various aliphatic organophosphates,
substituted pyrimidines, and hydrogen cyanide. Incomplete combustion may lead to formation of
carbon monoxide and other asphyxiants.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus with full protective clothing. Fight fire from upwind and keep
all non-essential personnel out of area.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: If water is used to fight fire or cool containers, dike to prevent runoff contamination of municipal

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Wear chemical safety glasses with side shields or chemical goggles, rubber gloves,
rubber boots, long-sleeved shirt, long pants, head covering, and a NIOSH-approved pesticide respirator or air-supplied respirator.
For small spills, absorb with an absorbent material such as pet litter. Sweep up and place in an approved chemical container for proper disposal. Check
local, state and federal regulations for proper disposal. For large spills, contain liquid by diking the area, keep product out of water supplies. If possible
use a pump to pick up liquid, then use absorbent material to absorb any residual liquid. Place both in an approved container. Flush the area with a
household bleach and water mixture (1:1) and then absorb the liquid as described in small spills.
CAUTION: Keep spills and cleaning runoff out of municipal sewers and open bodies of water.
