Fenoxycarb: Based on the results of the fenoxycarb toxicology studies, the EPA carcinogenicity peer review committee and the Ciba-Geigy Corporation's cancer risk calculations, it does not appear that using this product according to label directions poses a significant health risk. Results of animal toxicology lifetime feeding studies indicated that fenoxycarb was carcinogenic at high dose levels to male mice with regard to an increase in lung and Hardarian gland tumors. No significant increase in carcinogenic effects were observed in either female mice or the rat lifetime feeding study.
