No know harmfull effects to humans from DDT, except for millions who die every year from malaria since it was banned. DDT was proven to thin the shells of bird eggs, but no harm to humans or any long term study was ever conducted. You can thank Rachel Carson, the algore of her time, for writting a book called 'Silent Spring' a great read but purely political junk science that was taken on face value by people who had no idea that they were being duped. GI's deloused millions of European and Asian children after WWII by sprinkling DDT directly over them...hmmm maybe that IS why much of europe is so effeminate now.... ???
