June 20 cust bought round up for the crack in her double driveway (due to weeds). Cust adv she sprayed the driveway but it "seeped" into her garden (vegetables) and grass. She was getting red welts due to intoxication of round up (as per # health Canada), she had been walking on the grass and this is how it started. She thinks she may have ingested this. She went to clinic and they had to give her tetanus shot, antibiotics and use cream to get rid of this. Cust is looking for compensation for what she has been through. She doesn't have product or receipt, but adv that Health Canada says it is illegal in Quebec.? Cust called me to advise that she does not have the receipt with prod # but initially purchased the 5L Roundup "Pump and Go" for $39.99, it did not get rid of all her weeds so she purchased the concentrated for $29.99 which was to be mixed with water. Cust adv'd that 2-3 days later, her hands were red, rough and had little bumps or welts on them. She went to the clinic, they gave her meds. She then watered her property for 3 days in order to get rid of the Roundup. Cust adv'd that she also notices her feet and legs were red and rough. Since then she has had problems with runny nose, burning eyes, etc. Doctor has adv'd that the prod intoxicated her and she has had to purchase more meds since then. Cust also would like to be compensated for her soil, manure, vegetables lost due to this concern. I asked cust to retain all receipts, thanked the cust for the info and adv'd that I would forward her file to insurance for investigation. Cust thanked me.?
