Explanation of Carcinogenicity:THIS COMPOUND CONTAINS NO INGREDIENTS AT
    CONCENTRATIONS OF 0.1% OR GREATER THAT ARE CARCINOGENS OR SUSPECT
    CARCINOGENS.
Effects of Overexposure:RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION, DIFFICULT
    BREATHING, EYE IRRITATION, SKIN IRRITATION, ALLERGIC SKIN REACTION,
    WHEEZING, CHEST ITIGHTNESS, STOMACH UPSET, HIVES, FAINTNESS,
    WEAKNESS, DIARRHEA.
