Do you find the rates abnormally high?
The values are surprising. On the scale of France, in 2019, field studies showed results ten times lower. But keep in mind that this is an average, in reality the rate is very high over a short period of time, during the sprayings which take place in November. The rest of the year it is much lower.
Is it a dangerous exposure for the inhabitants?
An increase of a factor of 10 must raise questions. One can wonder whether a risk threshold has been crossed. But we must also rationalize the results, we speak of “high” levels, but at the level of the highest concentrations, measured in November, they correspond to 1 milligram in an Olympic swimming pool.
Said like that, it seems ridiculous!
I’m not saying that there is danger or no danger, it remains impossible to know for the moment, there are not enough studies. The figures give little indication. One product can be dangerous at low concentration, and another can be completely harmless at high concentration.
Is prosulfocarb very volatile?
The volatility scale is complex, but that of prosulfocarb is close to that of vinegar. If you put vinegar in a glass, you’ll smell it quickly, and if it’s hot and dry, even faster. Prosulfocarb behaves in much the same way.
There is also talk of risks related to the cocktail effect.
