NOTE  25 Oct 2021

I have decided to try find time to improve this website, hopefully done by end of year.

Condemned to an Uncertain Future

Dichlobenil is a very dangerous chemical,
it is banned in some countries, but allowed in the UK.(2006)
(under very strict restrictions.)

It is known to cause cancer in animals and possibly humans.

When applied,all people and pets must be kept out of the area.
The person applying it must be well protected.

After applying, it must be hosed over (watered) well, 
so the granules dissolve,and soak into the ground.

No people should enter that ground for 24 Hours.
Any spillage onto hard surfaces should be carefully brushed up,
not to cause dust.
Be very carefull that no granules enter any manholes or waterways.

The Family Way (Family Housing Wales)
I and my workmates were ordered to put it directly on to
 the roads and parking areas.
Whilst children and pets walked by or played.
The granules blew around for weeks until it rained, 
then it got washed down the manholes.

It may be years before the effects show.
What has caused these atrocities people may ask ?.
like the sufferers of asbestos used to.

Are you on the list of sites contaminated?
see
Llanelli Area
(for Swansea Area sites, you will have to contact Family Housing Wales)

From the 18 March 2009 The sale of Dichlobenil Products has been BANNED,
in all the countries of the European Community
see  The EC Decisions (2008/754/EC)

Christmas Eve 2009
This website does not make me happy. It is not on the internet to annoy my
previous management. They threatened to take me to court for Libel.
The only solution to my unhappines, is for FHA to prove without doubt,
 that what I have written on this site is WRONG.
Every time I do not feel well, (like today) I wonder is it due to the onset of old age
and an inactive lifestyle. OR due to being exposed to Dichlobenil.
I just hope it is the former, because many many people were exposed to Dichlobenil.
