Health incident: Breathing became laboured. Symptoms laster for a few minutes. Subsided when I came inside. About 1/2 hour later around my ankles started to burn. (I did not wear any socks when I went outside.) Advised by Telehealth Ontario to wash the area with warm water and change all clothing. Walking on the lawn for about 1 minute. Amount of pesticide - unknown how much was sprayed.I saw the Weedman's representative leaving my property and went outside to ask him what he was doing. He stated that he had finished spraying my property as per order. I advised him that I had not made any such order and only my neighbours at # and # spray their property. I asked the representative to show my where he had sprayed. Unfortunately, he was very untruthful as the dying plants etc. proved that he had sprayed more than he advised. Lawn was finally mowed on 2011-05-23 - I wore gloves, socks, and a face mask. (Occassionally topped mowing to allow pedestrians to pass on the sidewalk.)
