HCH Lawn and Garden Pest Control Spray from Germany
A ready-to-use spray containing lindane for controlling insects in home gardens, such as grubs and ants. It is classified under tariff item 3824.85.00 because it is a preparation containing HCH (lindane) as specified in Subheading Note 3 to Chapter 38. The product is put up for retail sale, but since it is not a medicament or a product of heading 38.08, it remains in this heading.

Import Tips
• Confirm that the spray is not classified as a pesticide under heading 38.08, which would take precedence over 3824.85.00
• Be aware that lindane is a restricted substance in Canada; you may need a Pest Control Products Act registration or an import permit
• Declare the exact HCH concentration to the CBSA to ensure correct classification
