Van Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 The short answer is no. These are insecticides. But many insecticides like DDT create dioxin(2,3,7,8TCDD) when burned. Dioxin is the byproducy of the manufacture of 2,4,5-T or the one half of AO, the other being 2,4-D. That being said these insecticides are very toxic and have problems of their own. These are nothing other than chemical weapons called pesticides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
