Every year in early March you see the lawn chemical trucks out making their rounds. The pest companies have been out all winter but you can sure they’ll be treating the same areas the lawn chemical companies have treated. You see, as a society we are controlled by fear, fear of bugs, weeds, mold, losing money, not being happy, this, that and the other. I find it ironic that we also fear sickness, why do I mention sickness? The lawn chemical trucks and the pest control companies bring sickness, don’t think so? Research the chemicals they use in and around your home, read the Material Safety Sheets, understand what you read, if you don’t understand it ask for help to understand it.
I chuckle at the people who think they can use this or that chemical to kill or control a weed or bug, don’t you understand that nature constantly adapts? Do you think you can beat nature? Really? Some say cancer is the body trying to adapt to the environment it’s in, yup, most folks live in a chemical environment.
What’s a person to do? Understand that people lived quite well long before all these chemical soulutions arrived on the scene, thousands of years in fact. It’s said today people live longer, that’s not entirely true. Okay, you want to argue about the length of live? How about quality length of live? Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, other cognitive decline has been directly implicated in chemical exposure, don’t believe it? Look it up. Back to the question of what to do? Understand what you are putting on your lawn, on your pets, on yourself, in your mouth and on your clothing. I’ll bet it’ll take you all summer to understand how much chemical load your body has to deal with on a daily basis. Oh by the way, the stuff you had applied to your lawn? You’ll be drinking that all summer also.
