David, if you and you other pesticide freaks would just give the
downside of the biocides that you recommend so easily, it would make it
easier for the recipient of your information to determine if it is
something that they want to do.

Why don't you learn about IPM so that you wouldn't have poison the
environment to solve a pest problem, or is it just easier to throw
poison-money at the problem, because you don't have the time to do it
right?

To put Integrated Pest Management and biocides in perspective, I'd
suggest that you read
"American Pests: The Losing War on Insects from Colonial Times to DDT"
by James E. McWilliams

Your library should have it.

I'm still on your Christmas card list, aren't I?
