Specific test data for the mixture is not available. There is no mention of toxic to an aquatic environment.
Surfactant Added to the Chemical BIOCAAC before Spraying Surfactant is added to the liquid spray product to create the foaming action that increases the dwell time on the bluffs and reduces running. If contamination with surfactant causes the surface tension of seawater to drop below normal, water will fail to form droplets and will penetrate the feather lattice structure of a bird s plumage and it will become waterlogged (Swennen 1977).
