Nevada restriction for compression socks
Hello,
As usual, we are combatting our socks getting incorrectly caught up in the pesticide algorithm. As we appeal each one, I am receiving denial of appeal because compression socks of 20mmHg or higher can only be bought with a prescription in Nevada. If I go back and look at the ASIN in account health, the issue is still listed as the item being a pesticide.
Has anyone else heard of this Nevada thing? It appears to be legit but there are TONS of listings for 15mmHg - 20mmHg stockings. And many for 30mmHg as well. I guess I am confused as to whether this is a pesticide issue or a Nevada law issue. Any insight is welcome.

I see you have concerns regarding your listing being removed due to potentially violating a restricted products policy regarding pesticides.
Sometimes, when there are specific keywords related to pesticides or any phrases related to pesticide claims used without intending to implicate this policy or product type then the applicable Amazon policies in addition to local, state, federal laws and regulations. Products that make any antimicrobial, antifungal, antibacterial, or other pesticide claim (for example, products marketed to disinfect, repel insects, remove allergens, or prevent bacteria) may be considered pesticides or pesticide devices under EPA regulations. For more information, go to the EPA's Pesticides page.
What information do you have on your product detail page? Are there any phrases like:
- Prevents, blocks, removes, neutralizes, or controls bacteria or other pests
- Sanitizes, disinfects, or sterilizes
- Resists mildew
- Removes or prevents mold
You will want to go through the product detail page, listing information, claims on the product itself, or in the images of your listing. If there are any of these claims or keywords in your listing, you will want to remove them prior to submitting an appeal.
Alternatively, if there are no claims or keywords you will want to provide pictures of your item from all sides and include the packaging. You will also want to include any instructions or inserts for the product. This will be provided via a case submission within the appeal button to the right of the policy violation.
Let me know if you have any further questions or relevant information.
All the best,
Stevie.
