Frequently Asked Questions

Why did Amazon flag my listing for a pesticide-related claim I didn't intend to make?

Amazon's automated compliance scanners look for specific keyword patterns — words like "antimicrobial", "antibacterial", or phrases like "kills germs" — regardless of the surrounding context or your actual intent. A listing can be flagged even when the word was used in an ordinary marketing sense, because the scanner is matching text patterns, not evaluating meaning.

What should I do if my listing was suspended over a pesticide claim?

Start by identifying and removing or rewording the specific flagged phrase in your listing copy. Gather any documentation relevant to your product, then submit an appeal (a Plan of Action) through Seller Central's case log, referencing the exact policy notice you received. This is general guidance, not legal advice — for a suspension with real business impact, consider consulting a qualified professional familiar with Amazon policy appeals.

Does using this tool guarantee my listing won't be suspended?

No. This tool screens your text against a known set of EPA/FIFRA-related keyword patterns, but it can't guarantee anything about Amazon's actual enforcement system, which may use different, broader, or updated criteria at any time. Always cross-check your listing against Amazon's current Restricted Products Policy before publishing.
