Great post @trumpman! It would be pretty amazing if we were ever able to develop a type of pesticide that would not be as harmful to us humans. In the developed world we don't often worry about the consequences due to good filtration masks, but there are so many people in developing countries who suffer from the damages caused by applying pesticides without a gas mask.

Prof. Göransson even once tried to touch a specimen bare-handed and didn’t feel much of anything

Haha, that's a pretty interesting way to test if something is harmful!
