SECTION 6. Accidental Release Measures
ADAMS FLEA & TICK MIST

Steps To Be Taken In Case Material Is Released Or Spilled
For large spills, isolate the spill area, restrict access and post the area for hazards present (flammable liquid, eye irritant) and necessary precautions. Extinguish open flames and shut off sources of ignition. Wear apropriate protective equipment to avoid skin contact and eye contact. Avoid sparks and open flames. Mix with sand or absorbent material and scoop or shovel into a suitable, properly labeled container for recovery or disposal.

SECTION 7. Handling and Storage
ADAMS FLEA & TICK MIST

Hazard Label Information:
Store away from incompatible material          Rubber or neoprene gloves
