On February 8, 2022, Region 3 issued a Notice of Warning (NOW) to Disinfexol, LLC in connection with the sale and distribution of the pesticide Disinfexol . Disinfexol, LLC, located in Rockville, MD, sold their disinfectant product with a 1-year shelf life claim, when it was only approved for a 6-month shelf life and also made other claims that differed from those accepted in connection with its registration under FIFRA.
