We would be playing in the street and could hear the DDT truck coming. As soon as it turned the corner and started down our street we would scatter like cockroaches and run into the nearest neighbor's home. Once the truck past by we would wait until the smell dissipated (about 5 minutes) before heading back out. I was always intrigued by the guy on the back of the truck spraying that stuff in a big cloud of poison. This was the mid to late 1960s in the suburbs of Baltimore.
Thanks for the story. I live asking my neighbor and great aunt about history stories ❤❤❤
Imagine questioning this and being described as “not believing in science”. We live in the world where you cannot
question science with impunity.
Right! The whole PURPOSE of science is being able to test and question things!
Polio anyone???
"trust the science" 1954 "DDT is safe and effective"
2 more weeks
cracks me up seeing these guys out there with no mask on
It's a multipurpose spray that can also be used for non-stick cooking
Lol...salad garnish too.
Please telk me more
Ddt almost wiped out the American Bald Eagle..
Mmm the smell of DDT in the morning.
They are still do this in Florida today
All that the spraying in my neighborhood (maybe once a year) has done is make the mosquitoes bigger and kill the butterflies, bees and lightning bugs.
You dirty conspiracy theorist. This DDT method was approved by scientific authorities by specialists of the CDC! The politicians and TV guys approved it! What are you going to say next, that Crispr m-rna modifying vaccines are not safe?
@@FabricioRWitt IS not conspiracy, is science ddt affects good Bugs too
Povokes extinction of insects and other animals
@@garfitosmaximo971 Indeed, I was just making a schpeel on the fact that many people take politicians, journalists and "specialists" on TV as axiomatic emitters of scientific truth.
Then we learn fauci funded this too..
While the side effects are regrettable, completely eradicating mosquitoes is not the goal of space spraying (as that is almost entirely infeasible). The purpose of space spraying is to eradicate enough disease vector insects that the infections die out due to the statistical improbability of host being found.
Even for all of its negative effects, DDT was really a marvel of its time. It eradicated malaria in most of Europe and North America, caused a drop in bed bug infestations from 30% of homes to ~3%, and more. It is truly a shame it turned out to accumulate over time.
Your assuming the insecticide is just for the insects! How do we know that it doesn’t have adverse effect on us?
@Kathy Saladin and provokes extinction of wildlife
The government used to spray children with DDT and claimed it was preventing polio but it gave them polio. They sprayed them while in the public pool and along the sidewalks. Some of my friends were sprayed and got polio and now they died a long time ago.
Come on folks get your Approved Spray today
@ 1:06 Thats us all so, layered for maximum kill.
Indiscriminately exterminating anything with more than 4 legs was acceptable in those days!
Such stupidity... And mosquitoes are worse than ever and these chemicals haven't done a thing!
@ice cloud the methods are still used, however
oh yes they have ..1 in 2 get cancer
So am I the only one watching this because of school
please explain
No, I came here from www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/did-you-know-little-known-facts-about-covid-19-jabs-media-misinformation-and-bill-gates
this is what created polio
@@vergaonevergaYes the government sprayed children while swimming in public pools and playing on sidewalks and said it would prevent childhood paralysis but it actually gave them cancer and polio. The polio epidemic ended abruptly once DDT was banned.
THAT LADY IS SPRAYING THE FUCK OUTTA HER HOUSE. NO WONDER HER HUSBAND DIED A SOON AS HE STEPPED INSIDE.
We were all born into this world...I am a young man...what can I do to help? I don't want future generations to suffer based on this kind of B.S.!
Hehe
Settled science
"How stupid can you be?"
