[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in a SFH in an upscale neighborhood where most neighbors use pesticides on their lawns.  I love springtime but I hate the fact that I can smell the herbicides in the air and see those little flags all over people's lawns in April and May.  We don't spray our lawn, and there are a few others in the neighborhood who also do not, but my two next door neighbors do.  I hate that I can't be out with my kids in the yard during the week for fear of seeing a Chemlawn truck pull into the driveway of the house next door, or worse yet, walk out the door and they are already spraying and I can smell it saturating the air.  Why do people disregard the health of their families and pets for a golf course perfect lawn?  I don't get it and it really upsets me.  Would be interested in hearing from those that do spray their lawns--aren't you concerned about what these chemicals are doing to your health, your kids' health and your pets' health, not to mention tracking it inside your house to linger in your carpets for years?[/quote]

It is no fun to live next to uneducated, stubborn, caddish dolts, OP.  My condolences.

Would you consider moving?  Maybe to a more educated, refined neighborhood?
