I know. I was a Farmer & Horticulturist for 25yrs, and believe me, all of us are surrounded by pesticides, herbicides and fungicides, almost everywhere we go, and in most everything we eat and drink. It’s just a fact of life.

I didn’t use it when I could avoid it, because I knew of the long-term consequences for all involved in the diverse chain of life.

When they spray overnight twice a year for mosquitoes in Florida, there are birds that show up dead under trees. There were a few stray cats that lived in our community and laid under the hedges where the landscapers fertilized and spread weedkiller often. All 3 cats developed tumors and had to be put down. I avoid pesticides too.
