History

Perhaps a little more of the history of this substance might be worthwhile? For example when was its use banned in the US? When was export banned in the US? Why did the US keep exporting it when they had banned it at home? Owen :-P 02:15, 17 July 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Djapa84 (talk • contribs)

No one responded, so I have added a few peices on the history and regulation of Dieldrin which I have found. It probably needs some trimming and other perspectives added. Djapa Owen 03:13, 3 October 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Djapa84 (talk • contribs)

The reference to the German Democratic Republic and USSR are dated by decades. It would be great for somebody to update information on Germany and as Djapa84 said the US. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.136.91.33 (talk) 01:43, 21 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dead Link

I'm not good at Wikipedia but I noticed that the external MSDS page goes to a site that is no longer maintained. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.235.140.71 (talk) 17:01, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
