This is true. It is unregistered, has no EPA registration number, section 18 is an emergency exemption. However, if used correctly and disposed of correctly, the risk of contamination is no higher than with other pesticides. Our food is heavily contaminated as it is. Of course, I am not justifying *that* and there are the thorny problems of accumulation and synergy.
