1-34291095 - The reporter indicated that he was exposed to an insecticide containing the active ingredient Lambda-cyhalothrin. About three hours prior to initial contact with the registrant the reporter was applying the product in the field and accidentally got some on his face. While in the field the reporter wasnt able to wash thoroughly but he did splash some water on his face and then later when he came back home he washed his face thoroughly. At the time of initial contact the reporter indicated that his face felt like it was burning and it was red. The reporter was advised that skin exposure to the wet product may cause short term paresthesia which can be relieved with vitamin E oil. No further information is available.
