Safety Precautions
a) No person shall mix pesticides in any container using water
from any water supply which is not adequately protected against backsiphonage
by a minimum air gap of 2 inches between the water discharge outlet and the
flood rim of the container. When the pesticide application equipment is
manufactured to draw water through a direct connection with the water supply, a

Code shall be installed between the water supply and the pesticide application
equipment.
b) No person shall mix or operate equipment for the application
of pesticides, including such auxiliary equipment as hoses and metering
devices, in such condition or in such manner as to create a hazard from
leaking, spilling, dripping, backflow, vapors or drift.
c) No person shall loan, rent, or permit the use of pesticide
application equipment which is faulty in any fashion as described in Section
830.800(b) above or which has not been cleaned in a manner to prevent the
misuse of a pesticide as described in Section 830.810 of this Part.

technicians within their employ of the hazards associated with the handling of
pesticides, as well as the special hazards involved with those pesticides with
which a technician might come into contact, and shall instruct those

labeling and this Part shall be provided by each licensee or registrant.

for the application of an appropriately labeled liquid or aerosol pesticide
applied as a crack and crevice treatment through a small hollow injection tube
placed directly into the target site below the level of the exposed food or
food contact surface, unless the pesticide label contains more restrictive
directions. In all other applications of the above pesticide formulations in
food areas, the following conditions must be met.
1) Prior to treatment, all exposed food and food contact surfaces
shall be effectively protected against pesticide contamination.
2) People without appropriate respiratory protection shall not be

recommendations.
3) Any additional safety precautions or directions as detailed on
the pesticide label or labeling must be accomplished prior to treatment.
g) No person shall apply any liquid, aerosol, mist, fog, dust or
powder pesticide formulation to patient areas or rooms of health care
facilities (i.e., nursing homes, mental health facilities, hospitals, etc.)
while patients are present in the areas or rooms. At the end of the pesticide
application, the pest control technician shall post a legibly completed sign at
all entrances to the treated room or area which shall warn unauthorized
individuals to remain out of the treated area for the specified amount of time
as determined by reviewing the pesticide label directions or, in their absence,
by consulting the pesticide manufacturer. The sign shall contain black letters
on a yellow background and be the same size, or larger, and contain the same
information in the same proportion as that found in ILLUSTRATION A. In
addition, the pest control technician shall give a copy of the following
materials to the person responsible for patient care in the treated areas:
1) A copy of the information contained on the signs;
2) A copy of the label for each pesticide used;
3) A Material Safety Data Sheet for each pesticide used;
4) Manufacturer's recommendations for re-entry times and
procedures when not addressed on the pesticide label.
At the end of the treatment period, the pest control
technician shall make certain by onsite inspection that the ventilation
procedures have been initiated in the treated room or area in accordance with
label directions or, in their absence, manufacturer's recommendations for the
pesticides used in the room or area. In the event that ventilation times are
not stated on the pesticide label and not provided by the manufacturer, the
ventilation period shall last for a minimum of 2 hours.
