DDT was initially used by the military in WW II to control malaria, typhus, body lice, and bubonic plague. Cases of malaria fell from 400,000 in 1946 to virtually none in 1950 (3). DDT is still used today in South America, Africa, and Asia for this purpose.

Farmers used DDT on a variety of food crops in the United States and worldwide. DDT was also used in buildings for pest control.

The reason why DDT was so widely used was because it is effective, relatively inexpensive to manufacture, and lasts a long time in the environment.
