What is true of granules (GR) and pellets (P) regarding their handling?

Granules and pellets are typically formulated in such a way that they present low hazards during mixing and loading compared to liquid formulations. Their solid form minimizes the risk of inhalation as they do not generate airborne particles in the same way that powders or aerosols might when being handled. This characteristic makes them safer to work with during the preparation for application, allowing for a more controlled handling environment.

In handling solid forms like granules and pellets, it is essential to ensure that practices to minimize exposure are followed, but the inherent properties of these formulations support lower risks related to mixing and loading procedures. Thus, their low mixing/loading hazards make them a preferred option in many situations related to pest control and vegetation management.
