[QUOTE="Kidds, post: 7608939, member: 5589"] As a sprayer operator and cabbage grower I hated spraying the fungicide "Thiram" because it nearly always gave me pretty harsh cold symptoms as soon as I used it. Herbicide Ramrod would give me fairly severe skin irritation yet never bothered the other guys, then again Dursban never bothered me much but absolutely crippled them. So many chemicals out there that we can't know what you experienced and everyone reacts differently (or not at all) to exposure. Having said that, you should not be exposed to them, especially in your own home/garden. Even if you are a complete townie just moved into the country it is the farmer in the wrong not you as an incomer and don't let anyone tell you different. It is not OK to allow drift into gardens even if the chemical is claimed to be benign. Make a fuss, the idiot that was on the sprayer is the one in the wrong. [/QUOTE]
