The first extensive use of gas in warfare was during World War I, when both sides made extensive use of gas, killing or injuring an estimated 1.3 million soldiers and civilians. Prior to World War I and back into antiquity, there were much smaller attempts to use chemical and biological agents as weapons of war. Consider using a catapult to fling pots of dung over the walls of a castle. The resulting stink could be considered an early form of gas warfare, and the potential infection could be considered biological warfare.
