Using your senses to identify a hazardous material can put you at risk of exposure by way of?

The sense of smell is unreliable as an indicator of exposure.
Some hazardous materials have no smell. Some can be smelled only at concentrations well above levels that are unacceptable for exposure. Others can be smelled at extremely low levels where there is no hazard, so relying on smell for those materials would result in inappropriate alarm.
Finally, the nose can become fatigued, so that you cease to smell something that you could at first readily detect. As a result, you may believe the agent has gone away, when it is still there but you can no longer smell it.

What is a limitation of using your senses to determine the presence of a hazardous material?
A limitation of using your senses to determine the presence of a hazardous material is that some hazardous materials are hazardous at concentrations too low for your senses to detect. In addition, some materials are very apparent to your senses at concentrations that are very small fractions of the concentration at which they become hazardous. If you are close enough to sense hazardous materials, you may have already endangered yourself.
