Harmful to health (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pestilent

(Other definitions for pestilent that I've seen before include "Mischievous" , "I lent pets that were noxious" , "Annoying" , "Lets pet in and it becomes harmful to health or life" , "Peel tints (anag) - extremely tiresome" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
