Guest guest Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 My director who lives in northern California is trying to get this out of restuarants. So for those in that area if you go to restuarants you may want to see if they are using this. One has to wonder how many other places are also using this poison http://www.instawares.com/clean-air-purge-iii.wtb342050cb.0.7.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, should be easy for this particular pyrethrin type. Why? Pyrethrin lasts last then 24 hours, and is more a on contact type pesticide, as sunlight destroys it. So, spraying it into the air is not EPA approved, most likely. The actual, true, active ingredient is likely listed as an inert ingredient. This would violate EPA rules once again. Keep in mind restaurant owners are pretty smart, yet stupid, meaning the replacement will likely be even more dangerous to their guests, and even more so their employees, and to the owner themselves. One good lever I have found, pass this on to the director, is to research the owner's, or manager's, health ailments, and invariable one finds out their ailment is caused, or aggravated, by pesticide. So, the two fork angle of attack to achieve the goal is to present two pages, no more, of info. The first is what symptoms (not ailments as most people do not know what symptoms go with what ailments, unless they have the ailment) are aggravated by pesticides. The second sheet is IPM, how to manage pests without pesticides. Both have to be " short " and not dense. And include URLs, as most people will take it home to their children to have them type in the URL into the computer, so to read the web page. Less is more on these two sheets. They have time to read a short page, but not a dense one. Remember, they read at 40 words a minute, meaning a whole page may take 5 to 8 minutes, or even 15, of uninterrupted time to read. So, it will cost them $5 to read one page, $10 for both pages. I know that does not seem like much, but these are business men, and they value time over everything else. Do not assume the owner or manager knows ailments or computers or URLs. My 2 cents. >So for those in that area if you go to restuarants you may want to >see if they are using this. > >One has to wonder how many other places are also using this poison > >http://www.instawares.com/clean-air-purge-iii.wtb342050cb.0.7.htm > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
