[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's about as bad as you can get for the environment.  Many countries have banned Round Up, for good reason. In addition, there is a strong correlation between the diminishing bee population and "weed killers".  Companies such as Mosquito Squad are under no obligation to tell you the truth (ethically, they should - but it usually does not happen).

Look around.  One sees far fewer chemical trucks than in the past, for good reason.  People need to educate themselves, especially in a geographic area that is supposed to be "educated".

you know mosquitos are not weeds, right?[/quote]

Same principle.  Or are you really that dense?

Omigod. Please don't give a bad name to people who care about the environment and also are capable of rational analysis. There is no "principle" by which you can use information about one substance to draw conclusions about the effects of an entirely different substance. [/quote]

Not this poster, but spraying for "mosquitos" kills indiscriminately--the good insects and the pests--just like round up does--weeds and plants.  So there is some logic to this.  Bees already have it hard enough and our food supply depends on them.[/quote]

PP here.  Thank you.  Glad people are really not as stupid as other PP.  But, maybe we should let them kill themselves slowly with chemicals....Darwin at work....[/quote]
