SECTION 2: Hazards identification

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: WARNING Harmful if swallowed, inhaled or absorbed through the skin. May cause eye irritation. May cause skin irritation. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Avoid breathing vapors or spray mist. Use with adequate ventilation. Do not contaminate feed or foodstuffs. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Highly toxic to fish and aquatic organisms.

Principle Routes of Exposure

Ingestion, inhalation, eye contact, and skin contact SIGNS OF ACUTE OVEREXPOSURE: Contact with Bifenthrin may occasionally produce skin sensations such as rashes, numbing, burning or tingling. These skin sensations are reversible and usually subside within 12 hours. Exposure to the vapors can cause irritation to eyes, lungs, and mucous membranes. Contact with liquid can cause eye irritation, skin irritation and skin defatting. Ingestion may result in vomiting. Aspiration (breathing) of the vomitus into the lungs must be avoided as even small quantities may result in aspiration pneumonitis (pneumonia). Prolonged exposure to aromatic hydrocarbons may result in congestive effects to a wide variety of internal organs. Symptoms of overexposure include tremors, convulsions, incoordination, decreased locomotion and nasal discharge. SIGNS OF CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE: Same as acute. OTHER POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: Bifenthrin has produced an increased incidence of urinary bladder tumors in male mice at the highest dose level tested. This response however was considered equivocal and not evidence of a clear compound related effect.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure

Dermatitis, asthma-like conditions, other CNS related diseases. CARE SHOULD BE EXERCISED IN HANDLING THIS FORMULATION.
