Chlorpyrifos can be found in many sources, including agriculture, where the pesticide is used on crops, cattle ear tags, and on golf courses. Household pests, such as fleas or termites can also be controlled by chlorpyrifos. Industrial plants and vehicles also utilize this substance, in addition to those who treat wood products, such as fences. Moreover, chlorpyrifos has also been relied on to deal with mosquitoes and ants in various settings.
