Natural Pest Control
Natural pest control techniques are better for the humans who deal with the techniques than those made from poisonous chemicals, while at the same time being effective in eliminating pests. Natural pest controls don't pollute air and water, as chemical ones do.
Have you found non-chemical approaches to pest control? I have found that often the natural approaches are as affective, if not more so, than harsh chemicals. I talk about the impact on the people who make chemical pest control products in my article on natural pest control.
We too readily forget about those people. We don't know them, probably don't even live in their country. It's much easier to focus on our guests, and even then we don't pay enough attention to what we do to them and ourselves with the use of chemicals. It's time to think about the "invisible" people and find ways to improve their lives.
