§ 12971 Product Labeling Compliance

• •Always follow the product label when giving advice.
• •Don't suggest using a product in a way that's not on the label.
• •This applies to things like pesticides, cleaners, or other products with instructions.

If a pesticide label says 'use only on weeds,' you can't tell someone to spray it on their vegetables.

The law means you have to follow the instructions on the product's label exactly when giving advice about it.
