Yes.  I use the stuff so this is of concern.  Either way I'll be much more careful in future.

Monsanto ordered to pay $289m damages in Roundup cancer trial

13 minutes ago

Chemical giant Monsanto has been ordered to pay $289m (£226m) damages to a man who claimed herbicides containing glyphosate had caused his cancer.

In a landmark case, a Californian jury found that Monsanto knew its Roundup and RangerPro weedkillers were dangerous and failed to warn consumers.

It's the first lawsuit to go to trial alleging a glyphosate link to cancer.

Monsanto denies that glyphosate causes cancer and says it intends to appeal against the ruling.

"The jury got it wrong," vice-president Scott Partridge said outside the courthouse in San Francisco.

The claimant in the case, groundskeeper Dewayne Johnson, is among more than 5,000 similar plaintiffs across the US.

Correspondents say the California ruling is likely to lead to hundreds of other claims against Monsanto, which was recently bought by the German conglomerate Bayer AG.

Mr Johnson was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2014. His lawyers said he regularly used a form of RangerPro while working at a school in Benicia, California.

Washing hands will not do much, protective gear is the only thing you should do or just don't use it at all.

Thanks PlanB. Just checked it out ... sounds both reasonably safe and very effective. Active ingredient nonanoic acid, a fatty acid which occurs naturally as esters in the oil of pelargonium.

Available from Bunnings also.

Yes have heard of this before.

But my geraniums seem to have a big sign to some moth, that says 

'free board and lodgings'   I am always clearning the dead undergrowth out.

Husband does spray, but I prefer to pick the wigglies off by hand. 

I agree, round-up is killing more than just weeds.

Phar Lap eventually paid the ultimate price, when this poison's benefits as a stimulant, were unfortunately administered once too often. 

There are things you can do to minimize your risks PlanB, getting all the chemicals out of your home and off your body is a good start, and eating fruit and vegetables that will help protect your from toxins. We have to fight for a clean future for our children and their children, too much suffering in this world because people are just too greedy for money. I am signing petitions everyday, today was one about children from orphanges being used in slavery, (mainly Cambodia), yes slavery is rife in many countries.

Yes my late husband died of brain cancer after five years working in the pest control industry and coming home reeking of chemicals. You could smell him coming, laundry and his vehicle smelled the same.

No definitive proof that the chemicals triggered his brain lymphoma but dead within 18 months. Not good whatever the cause.

As for slavery Musicveg ... the modern statistics are just awful IMO.

Slavery and forced labour are alive and well unfortunately from what I can see. According to the International Labour Organization:

• At any given time in 2016, an estimated 40.3 million people are in modern slavery, including 24.9 million in forced labour and 15.4 million in forced marriage.
• 1 in 4 victims of modern slavery are children.
• Women and girls are disproportionately affected by forced labour, accounting for 99% of victims in the commercial sex industry, and 58% in other sectors.

Yes, slavery is rife -- and the chemicals in our food and also our soil in which our food is grown in -- My Husband died of a very rare bone disease, died after working for a company that used chemicals he worked there for 25 years.

Yes it is greed that is ruining the planet -- they do ANYTHING for  $$$$$$

Sorry to hear of your husbands RnR and PlanB, Monsanto invests money into making sure there are no links to these cancers and disease. Doctors will call it a disease but it is actually poisoning. We need to start writing to people like Bunnings to get these nasty chemicals off the shelf and grow our own food where we can or support organic, farmers markets are cheaper than the shops sometimes. The next thing to worry about is GMO's, trials are being held all over Australia. www.ogtr.gov.au
