ODA encourages
safe and wise use of
home pesticide
products
H om eow n ers are
beginning an annual rite o f
spring, launching a major
effort to get their yards in
proper shape. F ollow in g
winter and several months o f
yard neglect, many Oregonians
are anxious to emerge from
hibernation armed with the
tools to reestablish healthy
lawns and gardens. Among the
tools: pesticides.
Home-use pesticides
are im portant and often
necessary in the battle against
unwanted plant pests and
diseases. Provided that they
are handled properly, pesticide
products are valuable tools for
the homeowner.
“This is the time o f the
year when people get out in
their yard ,” sa y s D ale
M itc h e ll,
assistan t
administrator o f the Oregon
Department o f Agriculture’s
Pesticide Division. “We want
to make sure that if they have
a pest problem and they are
going to treat it themselves with
a pesticide product, that they
use those pesticides wisely and
safely.”
Whether it is applying
weed killer, slug bait, or bug
spray, it’s always best to start
by taking some time to think
about what has to be done
before you actually do it. Too
many people rush out to
prepare their yard and garden
without a plan.
“N um ber
one,
identify the pest that is the
problem ,” says M itchell.
County extension offices,
ODA’s Plant Division, or even
your local library all have
resources to help you figure
out what pest is literally bugging
you. That’s important because
each pesticide product lists the
specific insects it is designed
to control. The product label
clea rly states w hat the
pesticide is to be used for.
M uch
of
the
homework can and should be
done before purchasing the
product. The most important
source o f information is the
product label itself.
“We
stron gly
advocate three steps,” says
Mitchell. “Read the label, read
the label and read the label.”
The label tells you not
only what pests the product
takes care of, but it gives you
special precautions. It spells
out what steps you need to take
to protect yourself and others
during application. Mitchell
says it’s very important to read
the label even before you buy
the product so you understand
if it is the correct pesticide for
you and how best to use it.
After the purchase
comes the application. Once
again, reading the label will
guide you through the proper
m ethod o f h an d lin g the
pesticide. It tells you how to
m ix the product. S om e
products may be already
mixed but most need to be
diluted before application. The
label also tells you when to
apply the product. Som e
p e stic id e s require dry
conditions, others do fine even
if it rains afterwards. The label
emphasizes the importance o f
keeping children and pets
away from the material during
mixing and application.
Once the pesticide has
been applied, it’s time for
storage or disposal o f the
unused product.
Where can you find
information on storage and
disposal? You guessed it, the
product label. The Oregon
Department o f Environmental
Quality is another source,
especially when it comes to
pesticide disposal.
“As far as the storage
o f pesticides, store them in the
original container in a safe, dry
location that is out o f reach o f
children," says Mitchell.
