Gasoline is against the law to use, and now it is expensive to use a gallon per acre.
Is it poison?, yes if you drink it. In moderation on the ground it is not dangerous, that is where it came from. If anyone thinks it is, prove it, in moderation.
The same thing happened with the chlordane ban, and many other pesticides that were taken off the market, all falsely accused of being a hazard, never proved, not one case. A TV newsman started that ball rolling and lots people got on that band wagon. Lot of people that wanted pesticides with residual off the market, because it lasted and theirs only lasted a few years..
Chlordane was used directly on people in a powder form for years before it was banned. Not a single case of injury was brought before congress.
One example of pollution, is our cemeteries and burial of people and embalming
fluid, many gallons used per acre. That's not counting the disease's they had. Does the earth purify? I think so, but understand me, I say in moderation.
All the wizard ant killers are not solving the ant problem, they are spreading and increasing in numbers. All the tons of stuff they are selling is just like their BS. If they say they can control them, I'll buy it today, and shortly they will swarm and it starts over.
Bait is expensive and they are pushing it, it works as a control. Scalding water does too,
pesticide, and pesticide granules works as a control. You cannot count on neighbors making an effort to control, may not be a neighbor they be a mile or two away and ants that mate, fly. I have gone over this before and I am sure many of you know what I am talking about, I am not trying to sell anything. Gnewt
