Whenever I pull out any insecticide, herbicide, or fungicide, I always use every safety item from chem-resistant suit with elastic hood, boots, gloves, googles, and respirator. I am a strong believer that I would rather be safer than sorry! I was taught that if you are scared of something ... you will respect it! As a result, I'm very safe around chemicals.
The only reason that I thought that I would ask about the respirator with anti-dessicants was that if it was not necessary, I would leave the respirator on the dash of the truck. It seems that no matter what spray I applicate, the public always figures that I'm spraying the most lethal poison known to man. The image of me in my spacesuit always sends people running!
In response to my where-abouts over the past few months....... Business was so busy this spring/summer/fall/early winter, that I didn't have the ambition or time to spend on the site. Not that I'm complaining, this year's gross sales was double that of last year, but with the heavier work load comes increased stress load and lack of time. Anyway, I appologise that I haven't been a part over the past while, but don't think for a minute that you all have gotten rid of me that easy!
