SECTION 2: Hazards identification

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: CAUTION. HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AEROSOL. DO NOT use near heat, open flame. Shut off all ignition sources before using. Can cause eye skin and respiratory tract irritation. Harmful if swallowed or absorbed through skin. Contents under pressure DO NOT expose to temperatures above 130°F (54.4°C) or violent bursting may occur. EYES: Can cause irritation with discomfort, tearing and blurred vision. SKIN: Overexposure by skin contact may initially include a transient (several minutes up to approximately 24 hours) persistent burning or prickling sensation, which may be accompanied by visible irritation or rash. INGESTION: May be harmful if swallowed. Overexposure by ingestion may initially include nonspecific discomfort, such as nausea, vomiting, headache, or weakness; temporary nervous system effects such as muscular weakness, tremors and lack of coordination. Small amounts of this material may get into the lungs during ingestion or vomiting and may cause mild to severe lung injury. INHALATION: May be harmful if inhaled. Excessive inhalation can cause nasal and respiratory irritation, nausea and nervous disorders, such as fatigue, dizziness, headaches, lack of coordination, tremors and unconsciousness. CARCINOGENICITY: None of the components present in this material at concentrations equal to or greater than 0.1% are listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA or ACGIH as being carcinogens. In a recent study, marginally higher incidences of benign thyroid, parathyroid, ovary and liver tumors were observed in rats and in lungs of mice following lifetime high dose exposures to pyrethrum. Marginally higher incidences of benign liver tumors in mice were observed following lifetime high dose exposures to PBO. The significance of these observations is questionable and under review. The doses at which tumors were observed for pyrethrum and PBO greatly exceeded potential human exposure from labeled uses. SAFETY: ALWAYS Wear safety glasses and appropriate personal protective equipment when handling this material.
