Pesticides

• Product Recalls

  EPA continually works to reduce the risks to human heath and the environment by requiring pesticide registrants to report any potential problems with EPA-registered pesticide products. EPA works with registrants to recall products whenever products are deemed faulty or substandard or could potentially cause injury to consumers or harm to the environment. Registrants often voluntarily recall products and reformulate or repair potential hazards.
