| The reason for emotionality does not always constitute
intelligent thought. The single argument yet to be made is the reason the

- There is no such thing as a safe pesticide. A pesticide can
not be used safely.
- Most people, including medical professionals and Government
officials, are not aware of the health effects of exposure to
pesticides.
- If you can smell a pesticide you are exposed.
- All pesticides are toxic chemicals that poison everything in
their pathway.
- Pesticides permeate into everything and can not be cleaned
up or washed out.
- Pesticides can biodegrade into more toxic compounds.
- Some pesticides are very persistent with a long half-life
and bio-accumulate.
- Pesticides are made from petroleum (oil/petrochemicals).
- The formulation is often more toxic than each of the
chemicals singly.
- The so-called "inert" ingredients are now referred to as
"other" ingredients because they are often more toxic than the
active ingredient, which is considered the pesticide (example:
Lindane is 1% active ingredient 99% other such as
acetone or trade secrets. However when testing for lindane only
the lindane can be detected).
