EPA Takes Steps to prevent paraquat-related poisonings.

2016-03-07 14:31:07| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today

To prevent poisonings caused by accidental ingestion of paraquat, which can also cause severe injuries or death from skin/eye exposure, EPA proposes closed-system packaging exclusive to proper application equipment, special training for certified applicators, and changes to pesticide label and warning materials to highlight toxicity and associated risks. Several additional proposals are also recommended specifically for workers who mix, load, and apply paraquat.
