SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Toxicology Test Data:
Rat, Oral LD50 - >5000 MG/KG
Slightly Toxic/Practically Nontoxic
Rabbit, Dermal LD50 - >2000 MG/KG
Slightly Toxic
Rabbit, Eye Irritation -
Nonirritating
Rabbit, Primary Skin Irritation -Nonirritating. In two-generation rat reproduction study, male
reproductive fertility was depressed at 75 ppm due to degenerative testicular changes but this
effect was not seen at 50 ppm.
SECTION 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Hydramethylnon, the active ingredient, is very toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates.
SECTION 13 - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATION
Waste Disposal: Pesticide wastes are acutely hazardous. Improper disposal of excess pesticide,
spray mix or rinsate is a violation of federal law. If these wastes cannot be disposed of
according to label instructions, contact your State Pesticide or Environmental Control Agency
or the Hazardous Waste representative at the nearest EPA Regional Office for guidance.
Container Disposal: FOR PLASTIC CONTAINERS: Triple rinse (or equivalent) & add rinsate to
spray tank. Offer for recycling or reconditioning, or puncture & dispose of in sanitary landfill, or
by incineration, or if allowed by state & local authorities, by burning. If burned, stay out of
smoke. FOR BULK CONTAINERS: Reusable containers should be returned to the point of
purchase for cleaning and re-filling. FOR MINIBULK CONTAINERS: Clean all tanks on an
approved loading pad so rinsate can be collected & mixed into the spray solution or into a
dedicated tank. Using a high-pressure sprayer, rinse several times with small volumes of water
to minimize rinsate.
