Pests & Pesticides

Insects, diseases and aggressive weeds can destroy valuable crops and be a real nuisance in lawns and gardens. But to maintain our delicate ecosystems, we must manage them responsibly. In this section, you'll find regulations dealing with pesticide use and information on managing pests in both private and commercial settings - with and without the use of pesticides.

Current pesticide applications and approvals can be viewed by searching the Pesticide Applications Approval Database.
