GA Farmer says Round Up weed killer caused his cancer. Do you clear clogged sprayer tips this way?

[testdepth]

Farmer using a large weed sprayer attached to his tractor spraying 100's of gallons of Round Up would clear clogged nozzles by blowing on them with his mouth.

Farmer quote: Roundup's supposed to be so safe, I wasn't worried about it, I'd just take the little spray tips off, blow them out, put them back on, and keep going."

I use a hand sprayer and at no time would I ever clear a clogged tip of the sprayer I was using by putting it in my mouth there by ingesting some of the weed killer poison.

"Mmm...Tastes like carcinogens!"

This guy routinely says the chemical in Round Up is safe to drink but then won't drink any.

And this is why there are warning labels on hair dryers and toasters to not use them in the bath tub.

Blow, not suck.

I'm still waiting on an agency or someone with credibility to determine that glyphosate is a carcinogen, California will label H2O before too long. Not a smart idea on the farmer's part though, seems like the label should exonerate Monsanto, at least in this case.

Well, technically, it doesn't say, "DO NOT INGEST".
