Breakdown
Any product that claims to “KILL” anything needs to be registered with the EPA
• If there is no registration there is no “kill claim”
• If there is no kill claim you can not legally say your product eliminates the organism

•All registered products must be used EXACTLY as the labels state they are to be used to validate the kill claim
•Because these products “KILL”, every label states they must be used in accordance with label directions under penalty of law
