Bromoxynil

Spraying on agricultural fields (including bromoxynil esters like bromoxynil octanoate); residues can drift, bind to soil, and reach nearby water [1][3].

Mixing/loading or applying products; being nearby during spraying or drift; touching treated plants/soil; residues on food; drinking private well water near treated fields [1][2][3].

Short-term exposure can cause eye/skin irritation, coughing, headache, and nausea; repeated high exposure has affected the liver and development in animal studies [1][2][3].

Farmworkers and pesticide applicators; pregnant people and young children; residents near treated fields; people using shallow wells in farm areas [1][2][3].

Follow label directions and wear protective gear; respect reentry intervals; close windows and stay indoors during nearby spraying; wash produce; remove work shoes/clothes before entering the home; consider certified carbon filtration for wells near treated fields [1][2][3].
