CAPTURE 2 EC INSECTICIDE/MITICIDE

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

OSHA EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: • Amber liquid with an aromatic hydrocarbon odor. • Moderately combustible. May support combustion if heated above the product's flash point (see Section 9, "Physical and Chemical Properties" below). • Thermal decomposition and burning may form toxic by-products. • For large exposures or fire, wear personal protective equipment. • Highly toxic to fish and aquatic organisms. Keep out of drains and watercourses. • Moderate oral toxicity.

Potential health effects

Effects from overexposure result from either swallowing or coming into contact with the skin. Symptoms of overexposure include tremors, convulsions, incoordination, decreased locomotion and nasal discharge. 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.

FIRST AID MEASURES EYES: Flush with water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation occurs and persists, obtain medical attention. SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water. INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting and do not give liquids of any kind to the person. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. See a medical doctor immediately. INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If breathing difficulty or discomfort occurs and persists, obtain medical attention. NOTES TO MEDICAL DOCTOR: This product has moderate oral and, low dermal and inhalation toxicity. It is minimally irritating to the eyes and non-irritating to the skin. This product contains light aromatic hydrocarbons that can produce a severe pneumonitis or fatal pulmonary edema if aspirated during vomiting. Consideration should be given to gastric lavage with an endotracheal tube in place. Reversible skin sensations (paresthesia) may occur and ordinary skin salves have been found useful in reducing discomfort. Treatment is otherwise controlled removal of exposure followed by symptomatic and supportive care. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Foam, CO2 or dry chemical. Soft stream water fog only if necessary. Contain all runoff. FIRE / EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Moderately combustible. When heated above the flash point, this material releases vapors which, when mixed with air, can burn or be explosive. FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Isolate fire area. Evacuate downwind. Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus. Do not breathe smoke, gases or vapors generated. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES RELEASE NOTES: Isolate and post spill area. Wear protective clothing and personal protective equipment as prescribed in Section 8, "Exposure Controls/Personal Protection". Keep unprotected persons and animals out of the area. Keep material out of lakes, streams, ponds and sewer drains. Dike to confine spill and absorb with a non- combustible absorbent such as clay, sand or soil. Vacuum, shovel or pump waste into a drum and label contents for disposal. To clean and neutralize spill area, tools and equipment, wash with a suitable solution of caustic or soda ash, and an appropriate alcohol (i.e., methanol, ethanol or isopropanol). Follow this by washing with a strong soap and water solution. Absorb, as above, any excess liquid and add to the drums of waste already collected. Repeat if necessary. Dispose of drummed waste according to the method outlined in Section 13,

If crystals are observed, warm material to above 15°C (60°F) by room heating only. Do not use external source of heat for warming container. Shake container periodically to re-dissolve crystals. Do not contaminate other pesticides, fertilizers, water, food or feed by storage or disposal. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION EXPOSURE LIMITS Chemical Name ACGIH

TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

EYE EFFECTS: Minimally irritating SKIN EFFECTS: Non-irritating DERMAL LD50: > 2,000 mg/kg (rabbit) ORAL LD50: 262 mg/kg (rat) INHALATION LC50: 1.86 mg/l (4 h) (rat) SENSITIZATION: This product produces skin sensitization (allergic reaction) in laboratory animals, and may produce similar effects in humans. ACUTE EFFECTS FROM OVEREXPOSURE: This product has moderate oral and, low dermal and inhalation toxicity. It is minimally irritating to the eyes and non-irritating to the skin. Signs of toxicity in laboratory animals included tremors, clonic convulsions, ataxia, decreased locomotion, bloody tears and bloody nasal discharge. Bifenthrin does not cause acute delayed neurotoxicity. Experience to date indicates that contact with bifenthrin may occasionally produce skin sensations such as rashes, numbing, burning or tingling. These sensations are reversible and usually subside within 12 hours. Inhalation of aromatic hydrocarbon vapors may cause dizziness, disturbances in vision, drowsiness, respiratory irritation, and eye, skin and mucous membrane irritation. Vomiting after ingestion of this product may cause aspiration of aromatic hydrocarbons into the lungs, which may result in fatal pulmonary edema. Exposure to butanol vapors may produce headaches, drowsiness and irritation of the nose and throat. Excessive exposures to butanol liquid or vapors may result in contact dermatitis and irritation of the mucous membranes. Bifenthrin is highly toxic to fish and aquatic arthropods and LC50 values range from 0.0038 to 17.8 µg/L. In general, the aquatic arthropods are the most sensitive species. Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the aquatic environment. Bifenthrin had no effect on mollusks at its limit of water solubility. Bifenthrin is only slightly toxic to both waterfowl and upland game birds (LD50 values range from 1,800 mg/kg to >2,150 mg/kg). 13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS DISPOSAL METHOD: Open dumping or burning of this material or its packaging is prohibited. If spilled material cannot be disposed of by use according to label instructions, an acceptable method of disposal is to incinerate in accordance with local, state and national environmental laws, rules, standards and regulations. However, because acceptable methods of disposal may vary by location and regulatory requirements may change, the appropriate agencies should be contacted prior to disposal. EMPTY CONTAINER: Non-returnable containers that held this material should be cleaned, prior to disposal, by triple rinsing. Containers which held this material may be cleaned by being triple- rinsed, and recycled, with the rinsate being incinerated. Do not cut or weld metal containers. Vapors that form may create an explosion hazard. 14.

Potential chronic health

FROM OVEREXPOSURE No data available for the formulation. In studies with laboratory animals, bifenthrin did not cause reproductive toxicity or teratogenicity. Tremors were associated with repeated exposure of laboratory animals to bifenthrin. In lifetime feeding studies conducted with rodents, a slight increase in the incidence of urinary bladder tumors at the highest dose in male mice was considered to be an equivocal response, not evidence of a clear compound-related effect. The overall absence of genotoxicity has been demonstrated in mutagenicity tests with bifenthrin. Chronic exposure to aromatic hydrocarbons may cause headaches, dizziness, loss of sensations or feelings (such as numbness), and liver and kidney damage. Inhalation of xylene vapors at high doses has also resulted in an increased incidence of malformations and decreases in fetal weight in laboratory animals. Damage from xylene may be potentiated by alcohol. Disturbances in hearing and balance have been reported in workers exposed to butanol vapors. Under the conditions of 2-year inhalation studies, conducted by the National Toxicology Program (NTP), there was clear evidence of carcinogenic activity of ethylbenzene in male rats based on increased incidences of renal tubule neoplasms. The incidences of testicular adenoma were also increased. There was some evidence of carcinogenic activity in female rats based on increased incidences of renal tubule adenomas. There was some evidence of carcinogenic activity in male mice based on increased incidences of alveolar/bronchiolar neoplasm. There was some evidence of carcinogenic activity in female mice based on increased incidences of hepatocellular neoplasms. Studies conducted by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) showed that there is inadequate evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of ethylbenzene and that there is sufficient evidence in experimental animals; therefore, the overall evaluation shows that ethylbenzene is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B).

ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Unless otherwise indicated, the data presented below are for the active ingredient. ENVIRONMENTAL DATA: Bifenthrin has moderate stability in the soil under aerobic conditions (half-life range from 65 - 125 days depending on soil type) and is stable at a wide range of pH values. Bifenthrin has a high Log Pow (>6.0), a high affinity for organic matter, and is not mobile in soil. Therefore, there is little potential for movement into ground water. There is the potential for bifenthrin to bioconcentrate (BCF = 11,750).
