Description

Aldrin is a chlorinated cyclodiene insecticide that was used to control insects living in the soil including termites, corn rootworm, wireworms, rice water weevils, and grasshoppers. Aldrin was one of the most widely used insecticides in the United States and was used to protect corn, potatoes and wooden structures. Production of aldrin was halted in 1974 and importation into the United States ended in 1987. It is banned in many countries and restricted in many others. Symptoms of toxicity in humans include: headache, dizziness, nausea, malaise, vomiting, muscle twitching, myoclonic jerks and convulsions.[http://www.popstoolkit.com/about/chemical/aldrin.aspx][https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2014-09/documents/support_cc1_aldrin-dieldrin_healtheffects.pdf] Source: Regenstrief LOINC
