Pesticides Can Be Dangerous

Pests are a bummer.  But pesticides can be worse.  Nobody wants mosquitoes swarming around during a baseball game, but what can you do to control mosquitoes that isn't harming you and your family?

Pesticides are products that kill, mitigate, or compromise pests. The goal is death for the pest.  What kind of products or solutions kill?  Poisons.  Toxins.  Carcinogens. 

Think about the fact that when you are perusing the aisle of pesticides, most bottles you pick up to look over are a jug of poison.  A bottle of toxic, harsh chemicals.  A spray bottle of cancer-causing ingredients. Yes, they might be effective killing the ants under the sink, but the poisonous cocktail remains under your sink.

Most chemical pesticides on the market today are derived from nerve gas technology used in World War II.  Scientists created these synthetic chemical killers and so after the war, chemical companies wanted to monetize these inventions.  Synthetic pesticides were manufactured in bulk and readily available. Huge celebrations over the effectiveness of chemical pesticides were commonplace.  Bed bugs eradicated!  DDT wins the Nobel Prize for Medicine!  Toxic pesticides are the best!

Then reality hit.  Oops - maybe DDT isn't that great after all.  Maybe species taken to the brink of extinction isn't a good thing.  Massive increases in rates of Autism, ADHD, Alzheimer's and other medical ailments are directly related to the introduction of chemical pesticides.  And darn it, bed bugs actually haven't been eradicated!

What is going on? Deadly chemical pesticides are everywhere among us!

Synthetic, chemical pesticides are neuro-toxins designed to attack the brains or nervous systems of pests.  They are synthetic - not natural - so our bodies cannot metabolize these ingredients to filter them out.  They bio-accumulate up the food chain and stop in our bodies.  We are harboring the pesticides used on the crops growing in the field, in the food production processes, surrounding us in public spaces, and used on our bodies.  And the end result is human brains and nervous systems being affected.
