Potential health effects

EYES: This product is moderately irritating to the eyes. Eye contact may include MSDS Page 2 of 8 discomfort, tearing, swelling redness, and blurred vision. See Toxicology Information, Section 11. SKIN: This product causes skin irritation. This product is harmful to internal organs if absorbed through the skin. The degree of injury will depend on the duration of exposure and amount absorbed. See Toxicological Information, Section 11. INGESTION: This substance is slightly toxic to internal organs if swallowed. This product contains a petroleum distillate. Because of the low viscosity of the petroleum distillate, it can directly enter or be aspirated into the lungs either during swallowing or vomiting the substance. Once in the lungs, the substance is very difficult to remove and can cause severe injury to the lungs and death. See Toxicology Information, section 11. INHALATION: This substance is harmful to internal organs if inhaled. The degree of injury will depend on the airborne concentration and duration of exposure. This substance may be irritating if inhaled. See Toxicology Information, section 11. COMMENTS HEALTH: This product contains esfenvalerate, a cyano-pyrethroid that has the potential to cause temporary dermal paresthesis, e.g. burning, tingling, stinging sensations, that may occur following overexposure. However, using spray dilutions as indicated on the product label, it is unlikely that skin exposure to the spray mist will deliver sufficient concentrations of the active ingredient to trigger the dermal symptoms.
