When treating with liquid pesticide below the shoulders, your protective gloves should be

• A. Inside your sleeves
• B. In your truck
• C. In the lab
• D. Tightly fitting

Answer: (A)

The important idea is how your PPE helps prevent dermal exposure when you’re working with liquid pesticides on the body below the shoulders. Wearing gloves inside the sleeves creates a continuous barrier at the wrist. If a pesticide splashes or drips down the arm, the sleeve helps contain it and the glove stays protected, reducing the chance that chemical can reach the skin between glove and sleeve. This setup keeps the protective barrier intact and minimizes exposure during treatment.

Carrying gloves in the truck or lab wouldn’t provide protection during actual work, and simply having a glove that is snug isn’t the primary factor here—the placement to keep the barrier at the wrist sealed is.
