What type of statement on a pesticide label warns that the product is toxic and may be hazardous?

  1. Environmental Hazards

  2. Precautionary Statement

  3. Signal words and symbols

  4. First Aid Statements

The correct answer is: Signal words and symbols

Signal words and symbols are used in pesticide labels to warn consumers about any potential hazards associated with the product. They are usually found on the front of the label and are meant to grab the reader's attention and inform them of the potential dangers. Option A, environmental hazards, may be mentioned on the label but it is not the primary warning. Option B, precautionary statement, is a more general term used to describe any type of warning or caution on a label, but does not specifically indicate toxicity. Option D, first aid statements, provide instructions on how to treat a person who has been exposed to the pesticide, but do not necessarily indicate that the product is toxic. Therefore, option C, signal words and symbols, is the most accurate and specific answer to this question.
