Safe pesticide use practices

Safe pesticide use involves carefully following label instructions, wearing protective gear like gloves and masks, and applying chemicals only when necessary to minimize exposure. Store pesticides securely away from children and pets, and never mix or spill them. Use the correct amount and type of pesticide to prevent overuse and environmental harm. Always wash hands after handling, and clean equipment properly. Proper disposal of unused pesticides reduces environmental contamination. These practices help protect your health, the environment, and ensure pesticides are effective without unnecessary risk.
