Deciphering the labels: Brand Name: Different names are used by different manufacturers even though their products contain the same active ingredients. The brand name (or trade or product name) is a unique name used to advertise the product. VS.

Product Type Listed under the brand name, this indicates in general terms what the product will control. Here are two examples: herbicide for the control of woody brush and weeds, and insecticide for control of certain insects on fruits, nuts, and ornamentals. Deciphering the labels:

EPA Registration Number Indicates that the pesticide product has been registered and its label was approved for sale by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). EPA Establishment Number Identifies the facility that produced the product. Deciphering the labels:

Manufacturer Name and Address Provides the manufacturer’s contact information in case you want more information about the product, such as a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) that provides detailed toxicity information, chemical properties, and precautions needed for emergency personnel. Deciphering the labels:

Ingredient Statement Provides the common and/or chemical name and amount of each active ingredient and the total amount of inert ingredients in the container. Active Ingredient The chemical(s) responsible for controlling the pest. Individually listed on the label by common name and/or chemical name and percentage in the product. Inert Ingredients Not required to be individually listed, but their percent of content must be. Deciphering the labels:

Chemical Name The complex name identifying the chemical components and structure of a chemical. Common Name A simpler name given by the EPA to a chemical name for easier recognition. Deciphering the labels:
