What is the meaning of "Inert Ingredients" in a pesticide formulation?

  1. Insoluble

  2. Insects

  3. The ability of a pesticide to harm humans or animals through inhalation

  4. Inactive materials that do not possess pesticidal activity but may be hazardous to humans.

The correct answer is: Inactive materials that do not possess pesticidal activity but may be hazardous to humans.

Inert ingredients in a pesticide formulation are substances that do not have pesticidal activity. These ingredients are added to the pesticide to help with stability, adhesion, or other functions of the product. Although inert ingredients do not contribute to the pesticide's ability to control pests, they can still potentially be hazardous to humans and the environment if not properly handled. Therefore, it is essential for applicators to be aware of the presence of inert ingredients in pesticide formulations and follow safety guidelines accordingly.
