Which would not be an action to take in the case of a pesticide spill?

Using sawdust or sweeping compounds to control strong oxidizers is not a recommended action in the case of a pesticide spill. Strong oxidizers are highly reactive substances that can lead to dangerous reactions, including fires or explosions, when they come into contact with organic materials like sawdust. Appropriate management of spills involving these substances requires specialized knowledge and materials that do not pose a risk of further reaction or hazards.

In contrast, containing the spill with absorbent materials is a standard procedure to minimize environmental contamination and prevent spread. Notifying emergency response teams is essential for ensuring that trained professionals are able to manage the situation safely and effectively. Sweeping up the absorbed chemical and disposing of it in appropriate containers is also an important step in handling the cleanup process safely. Thus, while other options represent correct spill management practices, using sawdust or sweeping compounds with strong oxidizers can create additional safety concerns.
