[QUOTE="BC, post: 1806104, member: 67"] 504RP, nothing may ever happen, but IF it does, he stands to loose everything. I worry about the arsenic showing up in a tissue sample. Can you imagine the bad publicity if that ever happened? They can find a trace of antibiotic now because someone gave too much in one injection site or did not follow the complete withdrawal time. Years ago, I was a county agent. I had a horse owner bring a jug of MSMA in the office and want to know how long he had to withhold his horses from the pasture he had treated. I asked him why he used it and he said the guy at the feed store said it would work and it did not require a license to buy and use. After about 20 minutes of search the internet for an answer, I broke down and called the 800 number on the jug. The tech rep was quick to tell me it was not to be used on forage for hay or grazing. I told him I knew that but my producer had used it and was wanting to know when he could safely graze it again. I put the rep on speaker phone so the producer could hear his answer - one full grazing season. He turned a shade of red similar to a Coke can, grabbed his jug and left. Just because a pesticide will work does not mean it fits every situation. [/QUOTE]
