A<unk>  occurs when<unk> s, chemicals intended to control a pest, affect non-target organisms such as humans, wildlife, plant, or bees. There are three types of<unk> . The first of the three is a single and short-term very high level of exposure which can be experienced by individuals who commit suicide, as well as<unk>  formulators. Type two poisoning is long-term high-level exposure, which can occur in<unk>  formulators and manufacturers. The third type of poisoning is a long-term low-level exposure, which individuals are exposed to from sources such as<unk>  residues in food as well as contact with<unk>  residues in the air, water, soil, sediment, food materials, plants and animals. In developing countries, such as Sri Lanka,<unk> s from short-term very high level of exposure (acute poisoning) is the most worrisome type of poisoning. However, in developed countries, such as Canada, it is the complete opposite: acute<unk>  is controlled, thus making the main issue long-term low-level exposure of<unk> s.
