These requirements differ from theclassification criteria and hazard information required for SAFETY data sheets (SDS), and forworkplace labels of non-pesticide chemicals. The hazard information required on the pesticidelabel is reproduced below. The pesticide label also includes other important information, includingdirections for TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC Harmful if swallowed.

3 Avoid breathing dust. May cause eye irritation. Avoid contactwith eyes, skin, and clothing. This pesticide may be fatal to children and dogs or other animals ifeaten. Keep out of reach of children and pets, poultry and livestock. Keep children, dogs andother pets out of treated HAZARDSFor terrestrial uses, do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or tointertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing ofequipment washwater or Composition/information on ingredientsMixturesCAS number%Common name and synonymsChemical nameMixtureOther components96108-62-3 Metaldehyde44. First-aid measuresInhalationRemove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Oxygen orartificial respiration if needed. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim inhaled the artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or otherproper respiratory medical device.

4 Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel contactTake off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Wash off immediately with plenty of skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. Wash contaminated clothing before contactImmediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Continue rinsing. Removecontact lenses, if present and easy to do. Call a physician or poison control center a physician or poison control center immediately. Rinse mouth. Drink 1 or 2 glasses of not induce vomiting without advice from poison control center. Have physician determine ifpatient s condition allows induction of vomiting or evacuation of stomach. Never give anything bymouth to a victim who is unconscious or is having importantsymptoms/effects, acute anddelayedBased on animal toxicity information for metaldehyde, it is anticipated that this material would beharmful upon ingestion and that direct contact may elicit mild eye and skin irritation.

5 Overexposureto metaldehyde may cause excessive salivation, vomiting, nausea, acetonuria (odor of acetone onbreath), convulsions, increased body temperature, depression of medullary respiratory andvasomotor control centers and coma. May be fatal. [Note: Because of the low amounts ofmetaldehyde in the product, it is unlikely the victim can be exposed to sufficient quantities ofmetaldehyde to have coma or death induced.] Overexposure may aggravate preexisting conditionsassociated with the kidney, liver, and of immediatemedical attention and specialtreatment neededAccording to manufacturer of Metaldehyde Technical communication , gastric lavage with a of sodium bicarbonate-powdered charcoal and prevention of acidosis by sodiumbicarbonate may be needed. Administration of Diazepam or Clonidine 20 minutes after ingestion of1000 mg/kg of Metaled by mice delayed the onset of symptoms and reduced mortality. This isequivalent to lb of product ingested for a 10 kg child.

6 Therefore, Diazepam and Clonidine maybe appropriate antidotes to reduce the symptomatology of Metaldehyde ingestion. For acuteinhalation overexposure, the patient should be monitored as respiratory failure may occur 24 to 48hours after informationEnsure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions toprotect themselves. In the case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately(show the label where possible).5. Fire-fighting measuresSuitable extinguishing mediaWater fog. Foam.

7 Water runoff can cause environmental fire hazardsMay form combustible dust concentrations in Accidental release measuresPersonal precautions,protective equipment andemergency proceduresKeep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep out oflow areas. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Do not touch damaged containers orspilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ventilate closed spaces beforeentering them. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. Forpersonal protection, see section 8 of the and materials forcontainment and cleaning upStop the flow of material, if this is without risk, to prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basementsor confined areas. Collect spillage. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confinedareas. Following product recovery, flush area with water. For waste disposal, see section 13 of precautionsAvoid release to the environment.

8 Contact local authorities in case of spillage to drain/aquaticenvironment. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not contaminate water. Avoiddischarge into drains, water courses or onto the Handling and storagePrecautions for safe handlingKeep out of the reach of children. Keep away from food, drink and animal feedstuffs. Minimize dustgeneration and accumulation. Avoid breathing dust. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated contact with skin. Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged exposure. Wear appropriatepersonal protective equipment recommended in section 8. Wash thoroughly after handling. Washcontaminated clothing before reuse. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Avoid release tothe environment. Do not empty into for safe storage,including any incompatibilitiesKeep container tightly closed. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
