Why is personal hygiene important after handling pesticides?

  1. To keep up with fashion trends

  2. To prevent pesticide waste

  3. To maintain clean equipment

  4. Wash hands every time gloves are removed and shower at the end of the day

The correct answer is: Wash hands every time gloves are removed and shower at the end of the day

Personal hygiene is important after handling pesticides because it helps minimize exposure and potential harm to oneself and others. Option A, keeping up with fashion trends, is not related to pesticide handling. Option B, preventing pesticide waste, is important but not the main reason for personal hygiene. Option C, maintaining clean equipment, is also important but does not address personal hygiene. Washing hands every time gloves are removed and showering at the end of the day helps remove any residual pesticides from the skin and clothing, preventing potential absorption into the body and contamination of others or the environment.
