How is Sevin NOT absorbed through the skin? I thought anything put on skin could be absorbed.

Technically speaking, sevin dust does have a withdrawal period of 7 days. However, I've use it for many years and have eaten eggs, vegetables from the garden (washed off of course)...still here breathing and typing.
