Regulatory information is a topic that is in constant motion.  For that reason the WAIB has and extensive email address list and we email out regulatory information on a continuing basis to our members. Should you need regulatory information consider becoming a member of the WAIB. Below are examples of a few Action Alert Emails that have been sent to our membership. If your company is a member and you currently are not on our email list, please contact the waib office at info@waib.org and we would be happy to add you to our list.

  The aerosol design of a refillable spray can dubbed the “bug bomb”, was patented in 1943, and is the ancestor of many popular commercial spray products. Pressurized by liquefied gas, which gave it propellant qualities, the small, portable can enabled soldiers to defend against malaria-carrying bugs by spraying inside tents in the Pacific during World War II.  In 1948, three companies were granted licenses by the United States government to manufacture aerosols.
