Capture the product name, EPA registration number, ingredients and any lot code. Keep first-aid, storage and disposal instructions readable.
2. Read EPA’s exact action
Compare your product with EPA’s alert. A notice may concern an unregistered product, a particular seller or specific uses; review its scope before assuming it applies.
