coast of Maine
The risk is very minimal,the gly label will not suggest a respirator.It has very very low mammalian toxicity.Sure IDK and neither do others what the future after use does,,,BUT and its a big BUTT,,you are 1000's of times more likely to =die in the car you rode in to the farm/,a tractor roll over??/,cigarettes?/pot smoke?/eat hot dogs?/chase wild women?/medical errors after you go see the doc/heart issues from over weight/over weight issues with diabetes/the list is hugely long where the risk is 100's of time s way more risky than handling non toxic herbicides...There are lethal ones yes,,but you need a license.Spraying lannate for instance and lick your hands,,,,sick bad...maybe dead.Gramoxone,,splash some in your mouth? dead in 2 weeks ..no cure,,Wear gear for these items and dont keep your mouth open. whilst pouring / mixing chems...keep eye wash water handy,keep pressurized hoses out of the cab,wear rubber boots,DO NOT wear leather shoes or canvas sneaks...ever while spraying...it will lead to continued exposure for months...
