Use MAXFORCE FC MAGNUM Roach Killer Bait Gel as a spot or crack and crevice treatment for the indoor and outdoor (adjacent to homes & structures) control of cockroaches in residential areas and the non-food/non-feed areas of institutional, warehousing and commercial establishments, including warehouses, restaurants, food processing plants, supermarkets, hospitals, nursing homes, motels, hotels, apartment buildings, bakeries, beverage plants, breweries, bottling facilities, candy plants, canneries, cereal processing and manufacturing plants, dairies and dairy product processing plants, frozen food plants, schools, laboratories, computer facilities, sewers, aircraft, buses, boats/ships, trains, homes, houses, industrial buildings, office buildings, kennels, kitchens, manufacturing facilities, spice plants, stores, wineries and similar structures, mausoleums, meat processing and packaging plants, meat and vegetable canneries, pet shops and zoos. Non-food/non-feed areas include bedrooms, living rooms, bathrooms, closets, media rooms, garbage rooms, lavatories, entries, and vestibules, offices, locker rooms, machine rooms, boiler rooms, garages, mop closets and storage (after canning or bottling). This product may also be used in food/feed areas of food/feed handling establishments as outlined below. May stain textiles, fabrics and or porous surfaces. USE RESTRICTIONS Do not treat food preparation surfaces. Keep gel away from foods and food contact surfaces. Do not apply bait gel to areas which have been recently sprayed with insecticide, and do not spray insecticide over gel as it may cause the bait to become repellent. USE ONLY IN AREAS NOT EASILY ACCESSIBLE TO CHILDREN AND PETS. In pet shops and zoos place bait out of reach of pets and zoo animals. GENERAL DIRECTIONS INDOOR USE: For roach gel: Application rate is dependent on level of infestation and species to be controlled. See Application Rate Table. Inject bait as a bead into cracks and crevices or apply as a spot. The lower application rate should be used for low to moderate infestations or retreatments, and the higher rate for more severe infestations or where the population occurs in inaccessible areas. Gel placements should be at or near harborages or aggregation areas, such as corners or cracks and crevices. Numerous smaller placements will provide faster control than fewer larger spots, especially for German cockroach control. Place bait under baseboards, sinks, countertops, seats, around water pipes, water heaters, dishwasher equipment, in crack and crevices as well as voids where insects harbor. Applications in Food/Feed Handling Establishments: Application within food/feed areas of food/feed handling establishments is limited to crack and crevice treatment only. If gel contacts an exposed surface where food is handled, remove gel and wash exposed surface with an effective cleaning compound followed by a potable water rinse prior to use. Apply with Maxforce Bait Injector directly into cracks and crevices. Place applicator tip 1/2 inch into cracks, crevices, holes and other small openings where roaches may be a problem. Apply small amounts of gel. Use Restrictions in Food/Feed Handling Establishments: Do not apply bait to areas where food/feed, utensils or processing surfaces may become contaminated. Do not apply bait to areas that are routinely washed such as cracks and crevices in tops of tables, food/feed preparation and prepared food holding surfaces as bait may be removed by washing. Do not apply bait to surfaces where the temperature exceeds 130 F as bait may run. Examples include, but are 2

3 not limited to, portions of stoves, ovens, grills, fume hoods, heat lamps, coffee urns, steam tables, toasters, fryers, dishwashers and hot water pipes. Care should be taken to avoid depositing gel onto exposed surfaces. If gel contacts an exposed surface, remove gel and wash exposed surface. Food/feed areas include areas for receiving, storage, packing (canning, bottling, wrapping, boxing), preparing edible waste storage, and enclosed processing systems (mills, dairies, edible oils, syrups). Serving areas are also considered a food/feed area when food is exposed and facility is in operation. Apply bait in small amounts between different elements of construction, between equipment and floors, openings leading into voids and hollow spaces in floors, walls, ceilings, equipment legs and bases, around plumbing pipes, doors and windows, behind and under refrigerators, cabinets, sinks, closets, stoves and other equipment where cockroaches hide. During follow-up visits inspect bait placements and reapply when necessary. Application of this product in food/feed areas of food/feed handling establishments other than as a crack and crevice treatment is not permitted. Gel placements should be at or near harborages or aggregation areas, such as corners or cracks and crevices. Numerous smaller placements will provide faster control than fewer larger spots, especially for German cockroach control. For outdoor use (adjacent to home -or- structure): Place bait in areas adjacent to structures where large roaches may nest or breed. Apply bait to potential points of insect entry, such as eaves, sills, and expansion joints. Apply bait in protected areas whenever possible. Environmental stresses such as direct sunlight and water will reduce the residual effectiveness. Priority treatment areas may be identified by visual inspection of such areas listed above or aided by trapping techniques or spot flushing. Refillable stations: This product may be used in the Maxforce Refillable Bait Station or B&G Perimeter Patrol Station. Refillable stations should be placed every 20 to 30 feet around the perimeter of a structure. Use approximately 2 stations per side of a typical single family home. The quantity of MAXFORCE FC MAGNUM Roach Killer Bait Gel bait added to the bait station will vary depending on the severity of infestations, see the application rate table. Do not exceed 2-4 spots per station (3-6 bead). For best results, place stations near: air conditioning units, water faucets, foundation vents and weep holes, decks, utility entryways (e.g. electrical, cable TV) and wherever cockroaches are frequently found. Regularly inspect all stations and replace bait as needed for continual control. Position Refillable Bait Stations adjacent to structure in areas where they will not be damaged by lawn equipment such as mowers and trimmers. When placing the station in turf remove sod layer and place station base plate against the soil. Applicator should not exceed 1/5 teaspoon of gel in refillable bait stations. If the station is not equipped with a sticker to identify the contents, apply a sticker to the inside of the station. Directions for loading reservoirs and operation: 1. With the arrow on the drive rod facing up, pull the drive rod all the way back. If the drive rod is initially hard to move, simply unscrew (turn counter-clockwise) the black portion of the applicator that holds the gel reservoir until the drive rod moves easily. 2. Attach a pre-filled reservoir of gel with a twist-locking motion. Remove the outlet cap and attach a dispensing tip. Break-tip Reservoir: Prior to use, break the snip-tip closed end of the gel reservoir at the scored line. After use, the reservoir may be resealed with the enclosed black outlet cap. The black outlet cap is reusable. 3. Turn the knob of the drive rod so that the teeth are facing down and move it slightly forward so that the trigger mechanism will engage. Squeeze the trigger until the drive plunger seats against the piston in the gel reservoir. Gently squeeze the trigger until the gel flows out. 4. If gel continues to flow after the trigger is released, simply un-screw the portion of the bait applicator that holds the reservoir to a point where gel does not continue to flow after the trigger is released. Directions for changing reservoirs: With the arrow on the drive rod pointing up, pull the drive rod out as far as it will go. Remove the empty reservoir and follow instructions in the Storage and Disposal box. Reservoirs that still contain gel can be sealed with the end cap and outlet cap for future use. To attach a new reservoir follow the above directions. Pest population reduction will be apparent with 2 -or- 3 days for German roaches and 8 days for American roaches.

Fipronil caused liver, kidney or thyroid effects and/or neurobehavioral effects Page 4 of 7

9 (e.g., tremors) in chronic toxicity studies in rats and dogs. Fipronil did not induce any microscopic lesions in the neural tissues. Assessment Carcinogenicity Fipronil has been classified by EPA as a Category C carcinogen based on thyroid tumors in rats only. These tumors are produced by a mechanism which is not relevant to human cancer. Fipronil did not produce an increase in tumor incidence in mice. ACGIH NTP IARC OSHA Reproductive & Developmental Toxicity REPRODUCTION: Fipronil was not considered a primary reproductive toxicant in rats. DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: Fipronil was not a developmental toxicant in rats and rabbits. Neurotoxicity Mutagenicity Fipronil caused transient neurobehavioral effects (e.g., tremors) in neurotoxicity studies in rats. Delays in developmental landmarks were observed in rats at maternally toxic doses. Fipronil was not mutagenic or genotoxic in a battery of in vitro and in vivo tests. SECTION 12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Environmental Precautions Do not apply directly to water, to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark.
