OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Storing Pesticides Safely Properly storing pesticides makes good business sense. Protects people & animals Protects the environment

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Pesticide Security Increased vigilance after September 11 th events

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Pesticide security should always be important Potential for harm to humans, especially children (who should not have access) Environmental harm, vandalism, and theft with possible misuse of products and the potential for use by terrorists. *Some pesticides have highly visible effects on human health.

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Potential Harm Rapid, visible effects to human –Ex. Organophosphates, fumigants, paraquat Eye, skin and respiratory irritation –Ex. Many herbicides Disrupt infrastructure or cause panic –Even low toxicity pesticides –Introduce into water supplies—exceed legal limit –Spray over populated areas

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Storage Ventilate the storage area properly, but do not use structures with windows large enough for someone to enter. Dogs can be effective deterrents against criminal activity.

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Storage Maintain a separate location for the storage of pesticides. If the storage area is located within a larger structure, provide access through a separate outside door. Keep the storage area locked. Do not allow unauthorized access.

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Security Post the name, address, and telephone number of at least one contact person at the primary entrance to the storage area. Establish contact with local law enforcement and fire authorities. Post emergency numbers (Poison Control, police, fire department) in the storage area.

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Security Limit access to storage Besides locking—consider locked fence, Consider security lighting and/or alarm

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Security Maintain an updated inventory of products. List at least the product name, date of purchase, quantity, and location within the storage area. Store the inventory list separately from the storage area. Inspect the storage area regularly and maintain a log of inspection.

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Security Make sure that products identified for disposal are kept locked in the storage area until they are disposed of. Keep pesticide application equipment secure. Never leave ignition keys in application equipment.

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Security Lock pesticide transport vehicles whenever the driver is away - prevent unauthorized access Be aware of the potential for siphoning or otherwise stealing from filled tanks such as mini-bulk equipment.

OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Security Do not sell or give pesticides to someone you do not know. If you do sell some pesticides, make sure the buyer has appropriate documentation.
