The EPA has created a pesticide
classification called: "Minimum Risk
Pesticides." These pesticides have products
for use as herbicides, fungicides,
insecticides, and repellants. All of
the products that meet the EPA requirements
for minimum risk pass Thurston County's
review criteria.
The data that is normally required for pesticide ingredient registration is waived for all pesticides that meet the requirements of a 25B minimum risk
pesticide. The requirements include that all active ingredients are from the 25b list, and that all other
ingredients are from the EPA's most current List 4A (Minimum Risk Inert Ingredients).
Thurston County considers these pesticide
ingredients low in hazard, however, they can
still cause injury. Many of the
minimum risk products can cause mild to
severe skin and eye irritation - so follow
all label directions. |
