Environmental Hazards – this contains any necessary warnings about surface waters, drift, organisms to which
the product is highly toxic, etc.
Physical and Chemical Hazards - this contains product-specific hazards such as flammability.
You must wear eye protection when you mix, load, or apply pesticides; clean or repair equipment that was
