SECTION 4. First Aid Measures

Description of First Aid Measures

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. Call a poison control center/doctor for treatment
advice.
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.

pose the same hazard as the spilled product. Note: see Section 1 for emergency contact
information and Section 13 for waste disposal.
SECTION 7. Handling and Storage

Precautions for Safe Handling

Protective measures: Wear a long-sleeved shirt, long pants, shoes and socks. Take prudent precautions to
avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Mechanical ventilation should be used when
handling this product in enclosed spaces. Do not contaminate water, food or feedstuffs,
by storage, handling, or by disposal.
Hygiene Measures: Eating, drinking and smoking should be prohibited in areas where this material is
handled, stored and processed. Workers should wash hands and face before eating,
drinking and smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before
entering eating areas. See also Section 8 for additional information on hygiene
measures.

Conditions for Safe Storage, Including Any Incompatibilities

Storage Conditions: Store in a cool, dry place. Keep container closed. Always store pesticides in the original
container. Store away from food and pet food. Keep out of reach of children.
