Problems: Dangerous Chemicals
Pesticide companies are driven by profits and Return On Investment (ROI) and do not put the environment or your health first. They promote their toxic products which are destructive, harmful and unsustainable rather than offering natural and safer alternatives. Many researchers and scientists have discovered that the toxic chemicals and synthetic compounds used by pesticide companies are harming us and the inhabitants of our planet. While many companies and people are lead to believe these toxic products are beneficial, necessary and safe, we should do our homework and be questioning the insanity of poisoning the people, plants and planet to kill mosquitoes.
It is well documented that a wide range of toxic chemicals and synthetic compounds pollute the planet as it damages our biosphere, bodies and brains. Evidence indicates they can lead to accelerating aging, disease, hormonal issues, immune system dysfunction, sickness, weakness and even death. Chemicals used by agriculture, insecticide and pesticide companies are causing birth defects, death, harm and mutations to babies, bees, beneficial organisms, birds and butterflies. All chemicals and synthetic compounds have serious consequences to people, plants and the planet over time. By buying and using their harmful synthetic compounds we destroy Mother Nature, keep them in business and poison our selves. Does that seem like an insane habit?
People are quickly learning that using chemicals and synthetic compounds to kill or repel mosquitoes is self sabotage, slow suicide and stupid. As more people search for better and brighter alternatives we find amazing benefits by using DIY Natural Bug Treatments. We are being harmed by the misuse and over use of extremely toxic chemicals to kill or repel mosquitoes. Significant evidence indicates that these toxic chemicals and synthetic compounds are major source of health hazards, poisons and toxins contributing to the large increase in death, deformities, disabilities and disease we are experiencing. The flood of health challenges since companies began unleashing a tsunami of harmful chemicals and synthetic compounds as insecticides and pesticides. We are being poisoned from exposure to these harmful chemicals and synthetic compounds in our air, food, soil and water.
