Clothing materials vary in their abilities to resist penetration and permeation of pesticides.
Cotton woven materials, such as heavy denim, offer adequate protection from granular and dry formulations in limited exposure situations. Use chemical-resistant materials for liquid sprays and for performing tasks such as mixing and loading. Coveralls When working with pesticides, it is best to wear more layers of clothing. Starched clothing and layers add more protection from pesticides. Coveralls can be added over regular work clothes for added protection from pesticides.
