JUST-IN-TIME PESTICIDE INFO – Water Soluble Packaging Label Changes

Dr. Amy E. Brown, Professor, Department of Entomology, University of Maryland

The Agricultural Handler Exposure Task Force (a group formed by multiple registrants of agricultural products to generate exposure data in support of registration) uncovered a problem with water soluble packaging while conducting exposure studies for water soluble packaging. They observed improper use of products in water soluble packaging, such as spraying the products with high pressure water and intentional breaking of water soluble bags. The task force notified EPA of their observations and  offered draft label language to address the improper use of the products. A draft set of instructions is included in the attached pdf.
