Basamid G is a soil fumigant used for the pre-planting control of listed weeds, nematodes, and soil diseases. It is intended for use in turfgrass, ornamentals, field nurseries, green houses, hoop houses, soil media, and nonbearing crops. The active ingredient is Dazomet (Tetrahydro-3,5-dimethyl-2H-1,3,5-thiadiazine-2-thione) at 99.0%. This product is a restricted-use pesticide due to acute inhalation toxicity to humans and is corrosive, causing skin burns and eye damage. It is also toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Handling requires strict adherence to the Worker Protection Standard (WPS). Key safety notes include the requirement for air-purifying respirators under specific conditions, chemical-resistant clothing (aprons, gloves, suits), and eye protection. If sensory irritation occurs during application, handlers must immediately leave the application block and buffer zone. The product must be applied according to specific site-specific management plans and buffer zone requirements to mitigate environmental risks.
