FIRST AID Eyes: If irritation or redness develops, move victim away from exposure and into fresh air. Flush eyes with clean water. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Skin: Remove contaminated shoes and clothing and cleanse affected area(s) thoroughly by washing with mild soap and water. If irritation or redness develops, seek medical attention. Inhalation: If respiratory symptoms or other symptoms of exposure develop, move victim away from source of exposure and into fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. If victim is not breathing, clear airway and immediately begin artificial respiration. If breathing difficulties develop, oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. Seek immediate medical attention. Ingestion: If swallowed, seek emergency medical attention. If victim is drowsy or unconscious and vomiting, place on left side with head down and do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting unless told to by physician or poison center. Medical Conditions: None known. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use material that is appropriate for the surrounding fire. Specific Hazards: None known. Hazardous Combustion Products: None anticipated. Effective Date: May 4, 2012 Product #(s) - 90006 Page 3 of 7 Special Firefighting Procedures: For fires beyond the initial stage, emergency responders in the immediate hazard area should wear bunker gear. When the potential chemical hazard is unknown, in enclosed or confined spaces, or when explicitly required by DOT, a self-contained breathing apparatus should be worn. In addition, wear other appropriate protective equipment as conditions warrant (see Section 8). Isolate immediate hazard area and keep unauthorized personnel out. Cool equipment exposed to fire with water, if it can be done with minimal risk. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal Precautions: None anticipated Environmental Precautions: Stop spill/release if it can be done with minimal risk. Prevent spilled material from entering sewers, storm drains, other unauthorized treatment drainage systems, and natural waterways. Methods for Containment and Clean-Up: Immediate cleanup of any spill is recommended. Dike far ahead of spill for later recovery or disposal. Absorb spill with inert material such as sand, earth or other non-combustible material, and place in suitable container for disposal. If spilled on water remove with appropriate methods (e.g., skimming, booms or absorbents). In case of soil contamination, remove contaminated soil for remediation or disposal, in accordance with local regulations. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for Safe Handling: Do not enter confined spaces such as tanks or pits without following proper entry procedures such as ASTM D-4276 and 29CFR 1910.146. Do not wear contaminated clothing or shoes. Keep contaminated clothing away from sources of ignition such as sparks or open flames. Use good personal hygiene practice. Conditions for Safe Storage: Keep container(s) tightly closed. Use and store this material in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas. Store only in approved containers. Keep away from any incompatible material (see Section 10). Protect container(s) against physical damage. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Exposure Guidelines Component ACGIH TLV ACGIH STEL OSHA PEL OSHA STEL Methanol 200 ppm (Skin) 250 ppm (Skin) 200 ppm (Skin) 250 ppm (Skin) Engineering Controls: If current ventilation practices are not adequate to maintain airborne concentrations below the established exposure limits, additional ventilation or exhaust systems may be required. Specific Personal Protective Equipment Eye/Face Protection: While contact with this material is no expected to cause irritation, the use of approved eye protection to safeguard against potential eye contact is considered good practice. Effective Date: May 4, 2012 Product #(s) - 90006 Page 4 of 7 Skin: Not required based on the hazards of the material. However, it is considered good practice to wear gloves when handling chemicals. Respiratory Protection: Respiratory protection is not usually required. A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. Air- purifying respirators provide limited protection and cannot be used in atmospheres that exceed the maximum use concentration as directed by regulation or the manufacturer’s instructions, in oxygen deficient (less than 19.5% oxygen) situations or under conditions that are immediately dangerous to life and health (IDLH). Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is potential for uncontrolled release, exposure levels are unknown, or any other circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection. Other Protective Equipment: A source of clean water should be available in the work area for flushing eyes and skin. Impervious clothing should be worn as needed. Suggestions provided in this section for exposure control and specific types of protective equipment are based on readily available information. Users should consult with the specific manufacturer to confirm the performance of their protective equipment. Specific situations may require consultation with industrial hygiene, safety, or engineering professionals. 9.

TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Acute Toxicity: Product/Ingredient Name Result Species Dose Bug Blast Methanol (minor component) LD50 Oral(estimated) LD50 Dermal (estimated) LC50 Inhalation (vapor, estimated) LD50 Oral LD50 Dermal LC50 Inhalation (vapor) Rat Rabbit Rat Rat Rabbit Rat 300-2000 mg/kg 1000-2000 mg/kg 10-20 mg/l >2528 mg/kg 17,100 mg/kg 13.3 mg/l – 6hr Note: Methanol assigned to classification based on human experience and not animal data. Skin Corrosion/Irritation: Causes mild irritation. Serious Eye Damage/Irritation: Causes mild irritation. Signs and Symptoms: None Skin Sensitization: None reported Respiratory Sensitization: None reported Germ Cell Mutagenicity: There is insufficient information available to conclude that methanol, a minor component, is mutagenic. Carcinogenicity: Methanol, a minor component, did not demonstrate carcinogenic effects in rats and mice treated via whole body inhalation at concentrations > 1.3 mg/l in air. There is insufficient information available to conclude that methanol is carcinogenic. It is not listed by NTP, IARC or OSHA. Reproductive Toxicity: Methanol, a minor component, has produced fetotoxicity in rats and teratogenicity in mice exposed by inhalation to high concentrations of methanol vapors. Specific Target Organ Toxicity (Single Exposure): Methanol, a minor component, ingestion causes damage to the optic nerve causing blindness. Specific Target Organ Toxicity (Repeated Exposure): There is insufficient information available to conclude that methanol, a minor component, causes target organ effects from repeated exposure. Although ethylene glycol butyl ether is not classified as for target organ toxicity, animal data indicates effects on the blood (hemolysis) with secondary effects on the liver and kidney. Human red blood have been shown to be significantly less sensitive to hemolysis than those of rodents and rabbits. Effective Date: May 4, 2012 Product #(s) - 90006 Page 6 of 7 12.

BCF = 0.2 - <10 Log Kow = -0.77 Mobility in Soil: Methanol, a minor ingredient, is highly mobile. Adsorption coefficient (Koc) solid phase/liquid phase = 1 Other Adverse Effects: None known 13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS The generator of a waste is always responsible for making proper hazardous waste determinations and needs to consider state and local requirements in addition to federal regulations. Recycle wherever possible. Large volumes may be suitable for re-distillation or, if contaminated, incinerated. Can be disposed of in a sewage treatment facility. This material, if discarded as produced would not be a federally regulated RCRA hazardous waste. Use which results in chemical or physical change of this material could subject it to additional regulation as a hazardous waste. 14.
