6/26/2014 Caller reports that his neighbor was spraying fields on 6/14/2014 with a Prestige XC and Axial Xtreme herbicide tank-mix. He claims it was a windy day and he could see the spray drift move across his yard. The product smell in the yard was strong and they immediately brought their children into the house from playing outside. The trees, garden, and flowers in their yard and patio were alleged to have begun to wilt. Callers wife developed cold symptoms of a runny nose, coughing, sneezing, headache, sore throat, and congestion 3 days ago. One son that was working outside with them during the application developed congestion, coughing, and nasal discharge a couple of days after spraying. Another son who has been in and out of the yard developed fever, vomiting, and lethargy 4 days ago. They gave him Tylenol for the fever, and he felt better after 3 days. The other children have remained asymptomatic.
