Pestisides

Hi I am interested in gaining knowledge about pesticides and like you to provide me information about the same?

Pesticides are used all around like in homes and gardens, schools, parks as well as agricultural fields.

These chemicals are allowed onto the market before their impacts are entirely understood — and harms to ones health and the environment are discovered years later. The science is increasingly clear that even small levels of exposure can harm human health, as well as children are particularly vulnerable.

Insecticides (bug killers), herbicides (weed killers), and fungicides (fungus killers) are all pesticides and so are rodenticides as well as antimicrobials.

Pesticides come in spray cans and crop dusters, in household cleaners, hand soaps as well as swimming pools.
