Application Date: February 13, 2026
Case Number: 684655
Dear Mrs. Patsy Laird:
The Agency, in accordance with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
(FIFRA), as amended, has completed reviewing all the information submitted with your
application to support the Registration Review of the above referenced product in
connection with the Sedaxane Interim Decision, and has concluded that your submission
is acceptable. The label referred to above, submitted in connection with registration under
FIFRA, as amended, is acceptable.
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the company’s website on your label, then
please be aware that the website becomes labeling under the Federal Insecticide,
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act and is subject to review by the Agency. If the website is
false or misleading, the product would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or distribute
under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E). 40 CFR 156.10(a)(5) list examples of statements EPA may
consider false or misleading. In addition, regardless of whether a website is referenced on
your product’s label, claims made on the website may not substantially differ from those
claims approved through the registration process. Therefore, should the Agency find or if it
is brought to our attention that a website contains false or misleading statements or
claims substantially differing from the EPA approved registration, the website will be
referred to the EPA’s Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance.
