Removed a context-free loaded safety statement.[edit]

I removed the line "Omethoate is known to be fatal or debilitating to warm blooded animals." considering that there is no citation or context offered for this claim. If this compound does indeed kill or debilitate warm blooded animals, this does not distinguish it from essentially every chemical known including water and oxygen. The context of dosage and mechanism is absent here. The following line about how the safety of the compound is under study is sufficient to illustrate the unknown risks associated with the use of this organophosphate pesticide. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:600:8201:4B00:40F6:94B6:F04E:1FCB (talk) 01:04, 12 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
