Question 1

What pesticides contained chlorpyrifos?

Accepted Answer

Hundreds of pesticide products historically contained chlorpyrifos. Well-known examples include Dursban, Lorsban, certain older Raid products, Ortho Home Pest Insect Control, Ortho-Klor, Cobalt, NuFos, Warhawk, Lock-On, Vulcan, Bolton, Stallion and other agricultural, residential and professional pest-control products.

Question 2

Did Dursban contain chlorpyrifos?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Dursban was one of the most widely recognized chlorpyrifos brands and was sold in numerous formulations for household insects, termites, structural pest control, lawns, turf and ornamental plants.

Question 3

Did older Raid products contain chlorpyrifos?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Historical EPA records identify chlorpyrifos in certain older Raid products, including Raid Formula 32, Raid Formula 34, Raid Home Insect Killer Formula II and Raid Treatment for Crawling Insects. Not every Raid product contained chlorpyrifos, so the product name and years of use are important.

Question 4

Which Ortho products contained chlorpyrifos?

Accepted Answer

Historical records identify chlorpyrifos in Ortho Home Pest Insect Control and Ortho-Klor Soil Insect & Termite Killer. Ortho Home Pest was used indoors, while Ortho-Klor was a concentrated product used for termites, foundations, lawns, trees and landscaping.

Accepted Answer

Agricultural chlorpyrifos products included Lorsban, Cobalt, NuFos, Warhawk, Lock-On, Vulcan, Govern, Bolton, Stallion, Pilot and generic formulations such as Chlorpyrifos 4E and Chlorpyrifos 15G.

Question 6

How can I tell if a pesticide I used years ago contained chlorpyrifos?

Accepted Answer

Important details include the brand name, manufacturer, approximate years of use, whether the product was a spray, granule or concentrate, what pests or crops were treated and where it was applied. Historical EPA labels and registration records can then be reviewed to determine whether chlorpyrifos was an active ingredient at that time.

Question 7

Is there a lawsuit for Parkinson's disease from chlorpyrifos pesticides?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Chlorpyrifos Parkinson's disease lawsuits are being investigated for individuals who experienced repeated or long-term exposure to chlorpyrifos-containing pesticides and were later diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

Question 8

Do I need to remember the exact pesticide brand to qualify for a chlorpyrifos lawsuit?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily. Lawyers may be able to identify qualifying products by reviewing where you worked or lived, the years of exposure, job duties, crops or pests being treated, supplier records, product descriptions and historical pesticide registrations.

Question 9

Who may qualify for a chlorpyrifos Parkinson's disease lawsuit?

Accepted Answer

Potential claims may involve homeowners, farmers, pesticide applicators, exterminators, termite technicians, landscapers, groundskeepers, maintenance workers, agricultural employees and Gulf War veterans who experienced substantial chlorpyrifos exposure before being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

Question 10

How do I find out if my old pesticide exposure may support a lawsuit?

Accepted Answer

A lawyer can review your Parkinson's disease diagnosis, pesticide use history, approximate years and frequency of exposure and historical product records to determine whether the pesticides involved contained chlorpyrifos and whether the exposure may support a claim.
