Definitions
Toxicity Categories I, II, and III: The US Environmental Protection Agency classifies pesticides into categories according to their acute (short-term) toxicity. These toxicity categories are based on a series of tests conducted to determine acute health effects. Pesticide labels are required to carry a prominent “signal word” which reflects the toxicity category of the pesticide product. The following are the categories, in the order of most toxic to least toxic, and their pesticide label signal word: Category I (highly toxic) with signal words DANGER or DANGER/POISON > Category II (moderately toxic) with signal word WARNING> Category III (slightly toxic) with signal word CAUTION > Category IV (relatively nontoxic) with signal word CAUTION. ** Note toxicity categories III and IV have the same signal word on the product label.
Restricted Use Pesticide: The US Environmental Protection Agency classifies some pesticides as "Restricted Use." Under federal and Minnesota state law, restricted use pesticides may be applied only by certified and licensed applicators. In Minnesota applicators who apply pesticides as a service "for-hire" must be certified and licensed to apply ANY pesticide for customers.
