Description

A container of Gramoxone, a paraquat product. Paraquat, a highly toxic pesticide, has been banned in 70 countries, but it's still legal in the United States. The federal government requires it to be dyed blue and have a sharp odor as safety mechanisms, because only one sip can be fatal. It can also only be purchased and used by those who have a license.

The international agricultural company Syngenta says it will stop making paraquat, a deadly weed killer that’s banned in dozens of countries yet remains legal in the U.S.
