Please note that this section contains my personal notes from my readings on this topic.

From The Toxic Sandbox (2007) by Libby McDonald; page 158:

Some lawn and garden chemicals have been linked to brain and nervous system injuries in rodent studies.  When you put these hazardous chemicals on your lawn they can end up on  your children and on your carpets and sofas when they are tracked in on the bottom of shoes.  Chemicals used on your lawn an din your garden can also end up in your groundwater.
