Never store pesticides in old bottles or food containers where they could be mistaken for food or drink for people or animals. You must never store pesticides near food, feed or seed. Store pesticides in containers that can be tightly sealed. Check the containers regularly to make sure they have no leaks, breaks, tears or defects. Store pesticides in a location away from freezing temperatures or extreme heat.
All pesticides are to be stored under lock and key at all times.
The building, room or structure where they are stored should be clearly marked with pesticide warning signs. Many injuries occur when chemicals are being mixed. The most dangerous pesticide job is pouring and mixing the concentrated chemicals. Mix the pesticides outdoors where there is good ventilation and light. Stand upwind of the pesticide to avoid contaminating yourself.
