  3. 1969 Raid Insect Spray Hits With Biker-Bugs Power

    Take it back to 1969—when Raid showed up like a hero with a spray can and a whole gang of biker bugs couldn’t stand the heat. Those animated little troublemakers stalking the kitchen feel straight out of a TV memory you didn’t know you still had. If you ever heard “spray and go,” this is the vibe it came from.

  23. 📰 "Fungus could be the insecticide of the future"

    🗒 "Exterminators keep getting calls for a reason. Wood-devouring insects, such as beetles, termites, and carpenter ants, are constantly chewing through walls or infecting trees and breaking them down. The fight against these insects usually involved noxious insecticides; but now, at least some of them can be eliminated using a certain species of fungus."

  28. Public health groups are suing the Environmental Protection Agency ( #EPA ) over its approval of a #PFAS “forever chemical”
    #insecticide
    that industry research found likely
    reduces testicle size,
    lowers sperm count and
    harms the liver in rats.

    The pesticide, #isocycloseram,
    is used on food crops
    and could especially threaten children and developing fetuses,
    but the EPA did not factor those risks into its safety assessment,
    said Nathan Donley,
    environmental health science director with the
    "Center for Biological Diversity",
    a plaintiff in the suit.

    The lawsuit marks the latest
    flare-up in an ongoing controversy
    over the use of forever chemicals
    in pesticides,
    which public health advocates discovered under the Biden administration,
    and has accelerated under Trump.

    The pesticide program has also caused friction between
    the Robert F Kennedy Jr.-aligned Make America Healthy Again (Maha) movement, which broadly opposes pesticide use,
    and Maga elements atop the Trump administration aligned with pesticide and chemical industries.
