Both military nerve gases and organophosphate insecticides are nerve agents.
It is highly unlikely you will be exposed to military nerve gases, unless you were near the front lines during a war in which they were used or you were trying to help treat wounded soldiers that had been exposed to them.
Every time you use an organophosphate insecticide to kill pests you expose yourself too.
