Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Emergency measure - Inhalation: Not stated
Emergency measure - Eyes: Flush eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes. Seek
medical attention.
Emergency measure - Skin: Wash with soap and water
Emergency measure - Ingestion: Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Seek immediate medical attention. [UK c.a.: Do not induce
vomiting.]
Fire-fighting measures
Recommended extinguishing agent: In case of fire use water, foam, carbon dioxide or dry
chemical powder. Wear a self-contained, positive pressure
breathing apparatus. Do not allow run-off water to enter
drains.
Accidental release measures
Handling and storage
Handling: Maintain exposure below the TWA (1.4 ml/m3). Local exhaust
ventilation should be used to control the generation of
airborne dust at points of transfer or other points where
full enclosure is not feasible. Employees engaged in
handling bulk quantities of hydramethylnon should remove
work clothing and shower prior to leaving the worksite. All
employees working with the material should wash their hands
prior to consuming food or tobacco products. Where it is
not feasible to use engineering controls and employee-
exposure could exceed 1.4 mg/m3, a NIOSH-approved
respirator must be worn. For exposure up to 10 x TWA, a
NIOSH-approved cartridge respirator for pesticides is
acceptable. For higher levels of exposure, use a NIOSH-
approved air or self-contained pressure-demand respirator.
Dust-proof goggles are recommended for employees engaged in
operations where there is a risk of accidental eye contact.
Normal work clothing, (eg cloth overalls) is indicated.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place in tightly closed containers.
Avoid accumulation of dust through good housekeeping
practices as dust may be explosive.
