Why is bug spray safe to humans after it dries?

61 viewsChemistryOther

To clarify, I know that the micro-doses used in home pesticide spray cans and powders are too little to harm a human when ingested. What I’ve been wondering is about other modes of transport. Could you get the residue in your eye if you handle a treated surface that’s dry and touch your eyes directly after? and could that be a problem?

likely because whatever is causing it to be wet (like alcohol) is dangerous but dries quickly and the long lasting agents may not be irritants or hazardous to humans
