Stop Sale Cancelled on SNS 217C

By OCC Staff

The Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA) cancelled one of their recent stop sale orders. On July 20th, the ODA ordered 14 products removed from shelves due to mislabeling of their products. The orders were based on reports from the Washington State Agricultural Department, but further investigation appears to exonerate Sierra Natural Science SNS 217C All Natural Spider Mite Control®, one of the accused sprays from any wrongdoing.
