I'll quote: "However, malathion breaks down into malaoxon, which is 60
times more toxic than malathion."
"Malathion present in untreated water is converted to malaoxon during
the chlorination phase of water treatment"
Also:
"Malathion was used in the 1980s in California to combat the
Mediterranean Fruit Fly."
"Malathion was sprayed in many cities to combat West Nile virus."
