Pesticide Dangers:

Scientific evidence supports findings that pesticides can cause significant harm and damage to the body. Even at low levels, exposure to these chemicals can have a broad range of adverse affects. Researchers at the National Cancer Institute and the National Institute for Environmental Health Science have found links between pesticides and various types of cancer and medical conditions associated with the nervous system such as Parkinson's disease and dementia. If you have suffered an illness or injury and believe it is due to exposure to hazardous chemicals you may be able to recover compensation with the assistance of experienced attorney. Contact New York Pesticide Dangers Attorney to learn more about your legal options.

If you believe that pesticide exposure may have made you ill, you need to contact a Pesticide Dangers Attorney to discuss your legal options.

Pesticide Dangers Overview

Pesticides are toxic chemicals generally used to repel or kill unwanted microorganisms, rodents, weeds, insects, bacteria and algae. Designed to attack nerve impulses and enzymes that control cardiac and central nervous functions, the chemical composition of pesticides varies by product and intended target.

Types of Pesticides

Pesticides are used often in environmental applications to control weeds or kill destructive insects that attack yards and crop fields. However, these chemicals are also generally used in households and everyday products such as mosquito repellant, kitchen and bathroom disinfectants, rat poison, mold and mildew cleaners and cockroach and ant sprays and traps.

Side Effects of Pesticides

Acute exposure to certain pesticides can cause headaches, rashes and asthma-like conditions. Prolonged exposure can harm the nervous and immune systems and cause a broad range of symptoms including headache, fatigue, dizziness, tension, anger, depression, and impaired memory. Nationwide and New York pesticide exposure has also been linked to Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimer's disease as well as certain types of cancer such as leukemia, prostate cancer, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Have you been injured due to exposure to toxic chemicals? An Pesticide Dangers Attorney can help assist you in recovering compensation for your pain and suffering. Contact New York Pesticide Dangers Attorney to learn more about your legal rights.

Exposure can also pose dangers to the reproductive systems. In women, certain levels of exposure can cause birth defects and abnormalities, miscarriage, decreased birth rate and fertility problems in New York. Additionally, pesticides have also caused a range of fertility problems for both men and women.
