Ironically, I remember the outbreak caused an increase in Malathion spraying, and being warned not to go outside on spraying days.

Ironically, I remember the outbreak caused an increase in Malathion spraying, and being warned not to go outside on spraying days.
- dhosek 6y agoI remember the spraying and all the containment efforts, but somehow managed to be ignorant of the claimed agro-terrorism (although this was happening during my last year of college and my access to news was limited at best at that phase of my life).
- acdha 6y agoDitto - I remember the spraying and other control efforts but nothing about it being intentional, which is odd since it seems like a detail which would have gotten a lot of attention.
- geomark 6y agoSame. And in my area we were advised to cover our cars if they were parked outside as there could be minor paint damage from droplets from the spraying.
- annoyingnoob 6y agoWas going to say that its really hard to get off of painted surfaces. What a mess.
- masonic 6y agoThat was the bait, not the malathion itself.
- JoeAltmaier 6y agoI was on Stanford campus at the time. The students would hear the helicopters, and run en masse out into the streets to dance in the malathion rain.
