Avoid contact with the eyesBased on animal studies (rat), the principal toxic effects noted in chronic studies were decreased bodyweight gain and decreased food consumption. The NOEL was 2.5mg/kg/day and doses up to 8.5mg/Kg/dayproduced no observable changes in the function or structure of the liver or nervous system.Data indicates no observable reproductive effects. It is unlikely that lambda cyhalothrin would causereproductive effects in humans under normal conditions.No mutagenic or teratogenic effects expectedBased on the results of animal studies not considered to be carcinogenic to humansAcute Toxicity (fish) very toxic to fish.LC 50 (rainbow trout) (96hr) 0.24ug/lVery toxic to aquatic organismsAvoid contamination of any water supply with this product or empty containerAcute Toxicity (birds) slightly toxic to birdsLD 50 (mallard duck) >3,948mg/kgLC 50 (bobwhite quail) >500ppmAcute Toxicity (bees) very toxic to bees, spray must not contact plants in flower if they are likely to bevisited by bees.LD 50 38ng/bee (oral), contact LD(50) 909ng/bee.Soil Toxicity; not toxic to earthwormsPersistence/Mobility: Lambda cyhalothrin is moderately persistent in the soil environment, reported field half-lives range from 4-12weeks. Low mobility in soil. Microbial degradation and hydrolysis is the major cause of loss from the soil.Product Disposal:Container Disposal:Section 11: TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATIONSection 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATIONSection 13: DISPOSAL INFORMATIONDispose of product only by using according to label or at an approved landfillTriple rinse container and add rinsate to spray tank.
