organic vs. chemical pesticides

::::::::

I really think the Chemical Companies are looking more and more like the Tobacco Companies. With their threats of lobbing against the Obama’s because she decided to use organic vs. chemical pesticides! The recent news the Federal biologists says pesticides have lead to the reduction of our Salmon population. Because of recent finding in our water supply – “drinking water” revealed that we have too many chemicals compounds many of which are very bad for humans. Proven theory that the overt use of pest control chemical (pesticides) has added to this stew of chemical in the ground water and combining to form new bad compounds and getting into our drinking water. With the above I launched into two-years of research on a national solution to prevent this toxic stew. My solution “Go Organic” to encourage people to use organic measures I have found a local insect, native to California, the Convergent Lady Beetle which eats up to 5 other types of insects in your yard for free while you sleep. Last year at a Local Home and Garden Show I was approached by a co-exhibitor unnamed but I can tell you this was a chemical pesticide company. He asked me that they have a pesticide which kill all the insects except for the Ladybug what I thought? I told him "Aphids to a Ladybug is like Steak to man" If I poison your Steak and feed it to you would you die or get very ill? He was very unhappy with my answer, so much so the next morning I came back to my booth to find "Mustard put on my pure white silk table cloth" No buddy, saw anything and had to be done by another vendor because the general population was not allowed after I left the night before and I believe it was done in the early AM when the general population was not allowed in yet!
