Unauthorized pesticide or chemical claims

Listings making pesticide claims (kills bugs, repels insects, antibacterial) require EPA registration. Without it, Amazon blocks the listing.

Cleaning products, pet products, or even fabrics making 'antibacterial' or 'kills 99.9% of germs' claims fall under EPA pesticide regulation.

1. Remove pesticide-style claims unless you have the EPA registration number.
2. Reframe as 'cleaner' or 'fragrance' rather than 'kills bacteria'.
3. If you have EPA registration, add it to the listing's compliance section.
4. Common triggers: anti-microbial, antibacterial, sanitizing, kills, eliminates germs.

• 'Antibacterial' fabric claims trip the pesticide policy
