Many Agoura Hills residents first suspect a connection after a diagnosis, then start looking back at everyday exposure pathways such as:
- Home and neighborhood spraying: Routine weed control by property owners, HOAs, or hired landscapers.
- Landscaping and grounds work: People who maintain yards, common areas, or commercial properties may come into contact with residues on plants, tools, or workwear.
- Secondhand exposure: Family members sometimes encounter residue carried on clothing or equipment—particularly when work boots, gloves, or jackets are stored indoors.
- Mowing treated areas: Handling vegetation after application can create exposure when residue is disturbed.
Because these situations can look “normal” at the time, documentation matters later. A lawyer can help you build a clear exposure timeline that fits how herbicides are actually applied in suburban and neighborhood settings.
