Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash Point: This aerosol is classified as Flammable by the Flame-Extension Test method described in 16 CFR Autoignition Temperature: Not determined Flammability Limits: Not determined Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, foam, carbon dioxide or dry chemical. Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Firefighters should wear NIOSH/MSHA-approved self-contained breathing apparatus and full fire-fighting turn-out gear. Dike area to prevent runoff and contamination of water sources; properly dispose of fire control water later. Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Containers will burst from internal pressure under extreme fire conditions. If water is used to fight fire or cool containers, dike to prevent runoff contamination of municipal sewers and waterways. Sensitivity to Impact: Forceful impacts can cause damage to aerosols until and may cause a bursting or explosion hazard. Hazardous Decomposition Materials (Under Fire Conditions): This product will support combustion and may decompose to give off toxic gases such as oxides of carbon and nitrogen. National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Hazard Rating: Rating for this Product: Health: 1 Flammability: 2 Reactivity: 0 Hazards Scale: 0 = Minimal 1 = Slight 2 = Moderate 3 = Serious 4 = Severe 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal Precautions: Wear appropriate protective gear for the situation. See Personal Protection information in Section 8. Environmental Precautions: Prevent material from entering public sewer systems or any waterways. Do not flush to drain. Large spills to soil or similar surfaces may necessitate removal of topsoil. Remove the affected area and place in an appropriate container for disposal. Methods for Containment: Dike spill using impervious materials or absorbent materials such as earth, sand or clay; collect and contain contaminated impervious or absorbent materials for disposal. Methods for Cleanup and Disposal: Shut off ignition sources. Stop release, if possible without risk. Take actions to reduce vapors. Pump any free liquid into an appropriate closed container. Collect washings for disposal. Decontaminate tools and equipment following cleanup. See Section 13: DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS for more information. February 2, 2011 Page 2 of 5

3 Other Information: Large spills may be reportable to the National Response Center ( ) and to state and/or local agencies. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling: Take prudent precautions to avoid contact with eyes. Users should wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Read and observe all precautions and instructions on the label. Storage: Do not use or store near heat, sparks, open flame or any other ignition sources. Store containers upright. Store in areas that are cool, dry and well-ventilated. Exposure to temperatures at or above 130 F (54.4 C) may cause bursting. Keep away from heat, open flame, any ignition sources and strong oxidizers. Emptied containers may retain product residues. Do not puncture or incinerate container. Do not contaminate water, food, or feed by storage or disposal. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Engineering Controls: Where engineering controls are indicated by specific use conditions or a potential for excessive exposure exists, use local exhaust ventilation at the point of generation. Personal Protective Equipment: Eye/Face Protection: Not normally required. Take prudent precautions to avoid contact with eyes. To avoid contact with eyes, wear chemical goggles or shielded safety glasses. An emergency eyewash or water supply should be readily accessible to the work area. Skin Protection: Not applicable; product for use on skin. An emergency shower or water supply should be readily accessible to the work area. Respiratory Protection: Not normally required. Take prudent precautions to avoid breathing vapors or spray mists of this product. If vapors, mists or dusts exceed acceptable levels, wear NIOSH-approved air-purifying respirator with cartridges/canisters approved for use against pesticides. General Hygiene Considerations: Personal hygiene is an important work practice exposure control measure and the following general measures should be taken when working with or handling this material: 1) do not store, use and/or consume foods, beverages, tobacco products or cosmetics in areas where this material is stored; 2) carefully wash hands and face before eating, drinking, using tobacco, applying cosmetics or using the toilet.
