dichloroethenyl)-2,2 dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate at 0.100%. For
household use.
The Agency has considered all required data on risks associated
with the proposed use of imiprothrin and cypermethrin, and information
on social, economic, and environmental benefits to be derived from use.
Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of the chemical and
its pattern of use, application methods and rates, and level and extent
of potential exposure. Based on these reviews, the Agency was able to
make basic health and safety determinations which show that use of
imiprothrin and cypermethrin when used in accordance with widespread
and commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable
adverse effects to the environment.
More detailed information on these registrations are contained in
the EPA Pesticide Fact Sheet on imiprothrin and cypermethrin.
A copy of the fact sheet, which provides a summary description of
these pesticides, use patterns and formulations, science findings, and
the Agency's regulatory position and rationale, may be obtained from
the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), 5285 Port Royal
Road, Springfield, VA 22161.
In accordance with section 3(c)(2) of FIFRA, a copy of the approved
label, the list of data references, the data and other scientific
