Besides labels, which document contains information about pesticides such as medical conditions they may aggravate and primary routes of entry?

• A. Product brochures
• B. Warranty cards
• C. Price lists
• D. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS)

Answer: (D)

Pesticide safety information is organized in documents that describe hazards, exposure, and protective actions. The material that tells you which medical conditions a pesticide may aggravate and the main routes people can be exposed through—such as inhalation, skin contact, or ingestion—is the Material Safety Data Sheet, or MSDS. This sheet is specifically created to inform workers about health risks, first-aid measures, and how to handle, store, and dispose of the product safely, including what personal protective equipment to use. It also covers what to do if exposure occurs, which is essential for preventing harm. Product brochures focus on uses and benefits, warranty cards on guarantees, and price lists on cost, so they don’t provide the detailed hazard and exposure information that the MSDS contains.
