Wear protective clothing and use protective equipment according to instructions on the pesticide label. Never eat, drink, or smoke while applying pesticides. Avoid spilling spray materials on skin or clothing. Should such an accident occur, wash immediately with soap and water. Avoid drift to nontarget areas.
Dusts drift more than sprays.
Airblast sprayers create more drift than boom sprayers. Bathe after applying pesticides and change to freshly laundered clothing. Wash clothing after applying pesticides, keeping in mind that, until laundered, such clothing must be handled with the same precautions as the pesticide itself. Wash pesticide-contaminated clothing apart from other laundry, and take all necessary precautions when handling or disposing of the wash water.
