What does the "Caution" safety word indicate about a pesticide?

The "Caution" safety word on a pesticide label indicates that the product is considered to have the least toxic level of risk among the classifications used in pesticide regulation. Pesticides are categorized by their toxicity, and the terms on the label— "Caution," "Warning," and "Danger"—help users understand the potential hazards associated with handling and using the product.

When a pesticide is labeled with "Caution," it implies that while the product may still pose some risk, it is generally regarded as being safer for use and less likely to cause harm compared to those with higher toxicity indicators. This categorization helps users assess the level of precaution needed when using the product, ensuring that they can make informed decisions about handling and applying it safely.
