Hi does anybody know where I could purchase the following pesticides?
Carbendazim and Fenitrothion? Thanks!


With a bit of luck one of the old boys in your neighbourhood will have
some in an old glass jar labeled 'jam'. You might also be able to pick up
some DDT or nicotine pesticide as well. Those will be in jars labeled
'chutney' or 'bottled peaches'. If you are not sure exactly what it is,
mix a bit up with water and spray it on anyway & see what happens.

come over here to NZ and if you are quick you can get a nice load of
poisons. Local farmers turned in a load of chemicals. Included was 30 kg of
2,4,5-T, 350 kg of 2,4-D. They also dropped off 10 kg of lindane, 30kg of
synthetic DDT and 15 kg of dieldrin.
