In Randolph Town and nearby communities across Massachusetts, herbicides are commonly used in residential landscaping, snowmelt seasons can reveal past yard treatments, and local maintenance practices may involve repeated contact—such as mowing, trimming, or clearing brush after spraying.
People also report exposure through:
- Home yard maintenance: using weed killer seasonally and later handling treated areas (tools, gloves, mower decks, sprayers)
- Landscaping and grounds work: maintaining common areas for property managers, facilities, and commercial sites
- Secondhand exposure: residue tracked indoors on work clothing or gear
A local attorney will want to understand your timeline—not just that “Roundup was used,” but how it was used, when it was applied, and what contact occurred before symptoms began.
