Killing bugs, presumably with an EPA registered
pesticide, is not under the OSHA hazcom rules (pesticides are specifically
exempted from this rule). This is a requirement of the EPA FIFRA pesticide
rules. The exterminator is required by EPA to provide the LABEL to the
homeowner/occupant. Not an (M)SDS.
I once asked the guy in Home Depot for
an MSDS for some paint solvent I was going to buy & he looked at me
like I was from Mars & had no idea what I was talking about. Said he
never heard of it! (my daughter rolled her eyes and gave him the 'oh-oh
wrong answer' look!)
