If Properly Used DDT Is Safe
County extension director C. E. Judd says DDT is practically harmless when used properly. Iowa State College entomologist Harold Gunderson notes no human illness from DDT poisoning. Crystals dry on surfaces and are largely non dangerous, but avoid spraying in rooms with food processing and keep supplies away from livestock and children.
