Precautionary statements

Call a Poison Control Center or physician if accidentally inhaled or ingested. Dispose of contents in accordance with local, regional, national regulations. This product is a granular pellet, tan/light gray. (See also Appearance: Emergency Overview: May cause skin or respiratory irritation based on prolonged or repeated overexposure to high concentrations. Irritation is believed to be mild to moderate and reversible. This product is not expected to produce any unusual hazards during normal use. Exposure to high dust levels may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, throat, or upper respiratory tract. This product does not present an inhalation, ingestion, or contact health hazard unless subjected to operations such as sawing, sanding or machining which result in the generation of airborne particulate. This product contains quartz (crystalline silica) as a naturally occurring constituent. Acute Effects of Exposure:  Inhalation: May cause minor to moderate irritation. Exposure to dust generated during the handling or use of the product may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin, nose, throat, and upper respiratory tract. Persons subjected to large amounts of this dust will be forced to leave area because of nuisance conditions such as coughing, sneezing and nasal irritation. Labored breathing may occur after excessive inhalation. If respiratory symptoms persist, consult physician. Preparation Date 3/27/13  Ingestion: May cause irritation to the esophagus and stomach, abdominal spasms and pain. Contact Poison Control if swallowed.  Skin Contact: May cause minor irritation.  Eye Contact: Dust can cause temporary mechanical irritation of eyes. If burning, redness, itching, pain or other symptoms persist or develop, consult physician. May cause minor irritation. Chronic Effects of Exposure:  Target organs: Eyes, skin and respiratory system.  Symptoms: Irritation of the eyes, skin, mucous membranes, upper respiratory system; cough, sneezing, rhinorrhea (discharge of thin nasal mucus).  Cancer: Product may contain crystalline silica as a normal environmental constituent. The amount present based on recent tests indicated less than the mandatory reporting level of 0.1% by weight. Exposures to respirable crystalline silica are not expected during the normal use of this product; however, actual levels can be determined by industrial hygiene exposure testing. Prolonged and repeated exposure to airborne free respirable crystalline silica can result in lung disease (i.e., silicosis) and/or lung cancer. The development of silicosis may increase the risks of additional health effects. The risk of developing silicosis is dependent upon the exposure intensity and duration. Note: Many soil types contain more than 0.1% crystalline silica. This product may add an insignificant level to the overall silica exposure.
