2 Your risk of harmful health effects from pesticide exposure depends on putting your arm into a hay baler. The damage may take longer to show up, which is two things: (1) the toxicity of the Chemical and (2) how much of it you are exposed what makes pesticide safety different from tractor or combine safety. Very few to. The National Agricultural Chemicals Association uses the formula: people die of acute pesticide poisoning, but it is possible to end up in a hospital Risk = Toxicity + Exposure. emergency room because of a severe reaction that may suddenly occur after years of repeated exposure to a particular Chemical . You can be exposed to chemicals in three ways.

3 Ingestion, or swallowing, is the most common cause of acute poisonings. Inhalation, or breathing, is the most toxic of Determining precisely the number of people who may suffer chronic, irreversible the ways that you can be exposed to pesticides because anything absorbed by the effects from pesticide exposure is impossible. These effects may include cancer, birth lungs goes directly into the bloodstream. Dermal absorption, or skin contact, is the defects, and some types of nervous system disorders. Although cause and effect links route through which farmers get most of their exposure to pesticides. between particular substances and cancer or birth defects are difficult to confirm, the sensible course of action is to give your health and that of your family the benefit To avoid pesticide exposure, don't eat, drink, smoke, or go to the bathroom while of the doubt.

Canister filters are more Get Chemical splash goggles or a full face shield to protect your expensive but last longer. eyes from splashing. Never wear contact lenses when working with chemicals. Respirators should be worn during mixing and loading of any pesticide and during application of highly toxic ( Danger Clothes Poison ) pesticides. Wear denim overalls and a If you smell pesticide when you put on the respirator, long-sleeved work shirt.
