• Pesticide Exposure, Safety Issues, and Risk Assessment Indicators (2011, background): “Human exposure to pesticides may occur through occupational exposure in the case of agricultural workers in open fields and greenhouses, workers in the pesticide industry, and exterminators of house pests [6-10,33-35].”
