The amounts of various insecticides present on fruits and vegetables during the growing season and at harvest resulting from exptl. and commercial control programs are tabulated. Similar data for contamination of animal products are given. With fruits, residues of DDT, DDD, or methoxychlor were always below 7 ppm. one month after application. Drying increases the relative amounts in fruit. DDT is volatile enough to contaminate raisins stored in boxes sprayed only on the outside or grain in the center of sprayed storage bins. Parathion disappears rapidly except from fruits containing much oil, such as olives. Vegetables take up benzene hexachloride and parathion from the soil but do not take up DDT. Both DDT and benzene hexachloride pass into cow''s milk from contaminated feed or after spraying and benzene hexachloride appears in various tissues of chickens perching on sprayed roosts.
