What can I say, it's summer so I have time to catch up on some things that have been building.
How does it work if a bug killing company (removing termites or whatever) applies something in a household, and then gives an MSDS to the home owners? While I appreciate that they are warning them of the hazards, what is the reason for doing such a thing? Are they required to warn people of the hazards, and are people expected to understand what these documents mean? I don't remember ever receiving an MSDS when I bought something from a hardware store (though I know I could get one, and of course I would know what it means, but I don't think my dad would - but he would know who to ask).
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. I have been asked a question on this and wanted to know some thoughts.
Thanks so much
Dave (again)
