Safety With Pesticides
Don’t use your mouth to
blow out clogged lines, nozzle
tips, or other equipment parts,
or to siphon a pesticide from
a container, cautions Herbert
Cole, Jr,, agricultural chemi
cals coordinator at Penn State.
Call your physician at once if
someone in your family acci
dentally' swallows a pesticide
or if you feel ill after using
one. Read the label to your
physician, naming the active
chemical ingredient. If you
must go to his office, take the
container with you.
