Section 3 - Composition/Information on Ingredients
Ingredients CAS No Conc,% TWA (mg/m3) STEL (mg/m3)
Allethrin 584-79-2 1.0k/kg not set not set
Tetramethrin 7696-12-0 4.5g/kg not set not set
Phenothrin 26002-80-2 1.0g/kg not set not set

Propane 74-98-6 800g/kg Asphyxiant not set
This is a commercial product whose exact ratio of components may vary slightly. Minor quantities of other non
hazardous ingredients are also possible.
The ASCC TWA exposure value is the average airborne concentration of a particular substance when calculated over a normal 8 hour working day
for a 5 day working week. The STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) is an exposure value that may be equalled (but should not be exceeded) for no
longer than 15 minutes and should not be repeated more than 4 times per day. There should be at least 60 minutes between successive exposures
at the STEL. The term "peak "is used when the TWA limit, because of the rapid action of the substance, should never be exceeded, even briefly.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures


General Information:
You should call The Poisons Information Centre if you feel that you may have been poisoned, burned or irritated by
this product. The number is 13 1126 from anywhere in Australia (0800 764 766 in New Zealand) and is available at all
times. Have this MSDS with you when you call.
Inhalation: First aid is not generally required. If in doubt, contact a Poisons Information Centre or a doctor.

If frostbite has occurred, immerse affected area in water that is neither hot or cold, but near body temperature (35-
42°C). Do not allow injured area to warm up too rapidly as further injury may result. If sprayed directly into eyes, wash
eyes with warm water and seek medical advice.

Extinguishing Media: Water fog or fine spray is the preferred medium for large fires. Try to contain spills, minimise
spillage entering drains or water courses.
Fire Fighting: If a significant quantity of this product is involved in a fire, call the fire brigade. There is a danger of a
violent reaction or explosion if significant quantities of this product are involved in a fire. Recommended personal
protective equipment is full fire kit and and breathing apparatus.

each user must refer to laws operating in their area. In some areas, certain wastes must be tracked. The Hierarchy of
Controls seems to be common - the user should investigate: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle and only if all else fails
should disposal be considered. Note that properties of a product may change in use, so that the following suggestions
may not always be appropriate. The following may help you in properly addressing this matter for this product. This
product may be recycled if unused, or if it has not been contaminated so as to make it unsuitable for its intended use.
