Zimmerman and his colleagues advised that DDT be sprayed directly on dairy cows,
their feed, bedding and water, in a 5 percent solution. Dairy products are ideal
pesticide carriers because they are emulsions of fats and water. DDT is a waxy organochlorine with an affinity for fats, and is
efficiently carried by dairy products through the digestive tract into the
organs. In the mid-1940s the FDA advised against the use of DDT, especially on
dairy farms. However, the pressure of the industry to promote DDT was
overwhelming and the FDA's advice went unheeded.
