Bring back DDT. It was great entertainment for us neighborhood kids who would run behind the DDT truck as it drove through the streets emitting it's mystical fog.

I also miss mirex, chlordane, and a few other pesticides that were deemed evil over the years, and taken off the market.

I remember doing that with a bunch of other BENNY's at the Jersey Shore down in the Ortley Beach-Seaside Hights area. We used to call it the smoke bomb truck or the fumigating truck.
