In West Haven, many potential exposure stories don’t start with “big agriculture.” They start with day-to-day contact with treated areas and products:
- Residential yard spraying: applying concentrate or using a handheld sprayer on driveways, weeds in planting beds, or fence-line vegetation.
- Secondhand exposure: residue on work gloves, boots, tools, or clothing after a family member or contractor handles herbicides.
- Landscaping and grounds crews: people who maintain HOA/common areas, schools, or commercial properties where herbicides are used seasonally.
- Mowing and trimming after treatment: handling vegetation that was treated earlier and can carry residue.
A West Haven weed killer lawsuit attorney will look at how exposure likely happened in your specific setting—not just whether you used a product at some point.
