What
Is
An
Antimicrobial
Pesticide?

The
definition
in
FIFRA
is:

A
pesticide
that
intended
to
disinfect,
sanitize,

reduce
or
mitigate
growth
or
development
of
microorganisms
or
it
protects
inanimate
objects,

industrial
processes
or
systems,
surfaces,
water,

or
other
chemical
substances
from
contamination,

fouling,
or
deterioration
caused
by
bacteria,

viruses,
fungi,
protozoa,
algae,
or
slime.

What
Is
Considered
To
Be
A
Pest?
(
40
CFR
152.5)

An
antimicrobial
pest
is
any
fungus,

bacterium,
virus
or
other
microorganism,
except
for
those
on
or
in
living
man
or
other
living
animals,

and
those
on
or
in
processed
food
or

animal
feed,
beverages,
