The negative effects of mercury poisoning are well documented. Thankfully, most people now know to avoid mercury exposure. Unfortunately, however, there are still many ways to be exposed to mercury in circumstances that are beyond an individual’s own control. For example, mercury has historically been used as an anti-mildew agent in home paints.
