Banned Herbicides & Pesticides
In article , Martin Brown
writes Very nasty stuff. Only if you are daft enough to drink it. And enough people were... It also happened by accident in lots of cases. I thought they latterly added bitterex or something similarly vicious tasting to prevent would be suicide cases using the stuff. Nasty choice of poison too. ISTR it is metabolised and almost completely removed but destroys vital organs like the liver and/or kidneys in the process. Similar problems also occur with natural Amanita toxins. Another now banned substance which used to be popular with gardeners was nicotine. A few fag ends infused in water overnight would make a very effective insecticide, but it caused a lot of health and safety problems. People understood the need to ban that because of its known dangers to smokers, but some still risk using it. -- Alan & Joan Gould - North Lincs. |
