When are farmers and people going to stop using so much of this weedkiller/bugkiller on every lawn and flower or tree that grows? THey are closing down lakes and inlets here in florida from either bacteria (fecal matter) or excess chemicals....it's disgusting. I have a neighbor who is out on her lawn spraying every ant hill and bush in her yard....I'll bet she has 3 headed ants over there. Those chemicals seep into the ground and poisons our water....they have also had to close down some neighborhood wells recently due to excess chemical draining off from farms or nurseries.

Guess no one cares as long as they have a nice yard and perfect fruit.

You got that right! (Who cares about dead lakes and poisoned ground water, anyway? - As long as I've got my own...)
