3808.59.10.00 - Containing any aromatic or modified aromatic pesticide

This HTS classification, 3808.59.10.00, specifically covers insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, herbicides, antisprouting products, and plant-growth regulators, as well as disinfectants and similar products. The defining characteristic of this category is that these products *contain any aromatic or modified aromatic pesticide*. These goods are typically prepared in forms suitable for direct retail sale or as ready-to-use preparations or articles, such as treated bands, wicks, candles, or flypapers. The emphasis here is on the chemical nature of the active ingredient, requiring the presence of aromatic or modified aromatic compounds as the pesticidal agent.

While this subcategory falls under the broader heading for disinfectants and similar products put up for retail sale, its distinction lies in the specific chemical composition of the pesticidal active ingredient. Other "Other" categories within this heading might cover similar end-use products but would be differentiated by the absence of aromatic or modified aromatic pesticides or by a different form of presentation not intended for retail sale. For instance, bulk industrial disinfectants or pesticides not containing aromatic compounds would fall elsewhere.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the focus remains on precisely identifying products that meet the criteria of containing aromatic or modified aromatic pesticides and are presented in forms for retail sale or as finished articles for pest or plant control. Examples might include certain moth repellents containing naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, or specific types of household insecticides utilizing aromatic compounds.
