Which information must appear on a pesticide label?

• A. Active ingredients, usage directions, safety hazards, first aid, storage, handling, and disposal.
• B. Brand color, packaging style, release date, supplier contact
• C. Vehicle pass-through, license number, sales tax
• D. The color of the pesticide and the fragrance

Answer: (A)

Pesticide labels must provide information that ensures safe, legal, and effective use. The essential items listed—active ingredients, usage directions, safety hazards, first aid, storage, handling, and disposal—cover what the product is, how to use it correctly, the risks it poses, what to do if exposure occurs, and how to store or get rid of it properly. This combination is mandated so users can apply the product safely, protect themselves and others, and prevent environmental harm.

Other options talk about details like brand color, packaging style, release date, or unrelated items such as vehicle access or taxes, or simply the fragrance and color. These are not required for safe use and are not part of the label’s purpose, so they don’t fit the core information that must appear.
