Pesticide Labels & Labeling

Reading and following the label: signal words, directions for use, restrictions, and precautionary statements.

What you should be able to do

  • Locate the signal word and state the relative toxicity it indicates.
  • Interpret restricted-entry interval (REI) and pre-harvest interval (PHI) from a label.
  • Determine the legal application rate, site, and target pest from the directions for use.

This topic is part of the Texas General Standards (CORE) exam. We have 4 practice questions for it, each with a cited explanation.
