In and around Bridgeton, herbicide use isn’t limited to farms. It commonly shows up in:
- Lawn and landscaping services that apply treatments on a regular schedule
- Residential property maintenance near driveways, fence lines, and seasonal growth areas
- Commercial lots (shopping centers, warehouses, and light industrial properties) where vegetation control is continuous
- Roadside or right-of-way spraying by contractors working for municipalities and private property owners
- Secondhand exposure, such as residue brought in on work boots, clothing, or equipment
For many families, the concern begins after a diagnosis—often after months or years of exposure that seemed routine at the time.
