0051538076821Plain-language summary of each regulated substance found above, drawn from public regulatory data.
Malathion is a synthetic chemical used as an insecticide in agriculture, residential gardens, and public health programs to control mosquitoes and other pests. It works by disrupting the nervous system of insects. California's Proposition 65 program listed malathion on October 27, 2017, because it is classified as a carcinogen, meaning it has been linked to an increased risk of cancer with long-term or high-level exposure. This regulation is based on scientific evidence from studies in animals and some human data, though it does not mean that casual contact causes cancer. The listing helps people make informed choices about products they use. You can find malathion in some pesticides, flea treatments for pets, and lice shampoos. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) oversees this list to protect public health.

Malathion is an insecticide used in agriculture, public health programs (like mosquito control), and sometimes in home gardening. It works by targeting the nervous system of insects. The World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies malathion as Group 2A, meaning it is probably carcinogenic to humans. This classification is based on limited evidence of cancer in humans (from studies of people exposed to it) and sufficient evidence in lab animals. IARC’s review focused on occupational or high-level exposures, not the tiny amounts that might remain on food. Regulatory agencies set strict limits to keep residues low. If you use malathion products, follow label instructions carefully to minimize exposure. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.
