Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Injurious Insects and the Use of Insecticides: A New Descriptive Manual on Noxious Insects, With Methods for Their Repression Within a few years great changes have taken place in the methods of dealing with destructive insects. The rapid advances made in the science of economic entomology, the introduction of several highly efficient insecticides and the invention of labor-saving mechanical appliances for use in Spraying, have done much to awaken farmers to the needs of broader knowledge and more scientific methods in com bating noxious insects. Scarcely twenty years ago the best farmers paid little attention to insect depredations. Such losses were regarded as of no significance, or as a part of the ordinary risks of farming. They were looked upon as occasional but inevitable evils which it was nobody's business to try to prevent. In the early Seventies when Dr. Riley and a few other scientists were laboring to overcome popular prejudice against the use of Paris green, in fighting the Colorado Potato-beetle, agriculturists, as a class, were indifferent and inactive until brought to their senses by serious losses or by the complete destruction of crops. But we have learned better since those times. To-day it is only the thriftless farmer who insists on growing crops to be eaten up by insects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world of insects is one we only dimly understand. Yet from using arsenic, cobalt, and quicksilver to kill household infiltrators to employing the sophisticated tools of the Orkin Man, Americans have fought to eradicate the "bugs" they have learned to hate. Inspired by the still-revolutionary theories of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, James E. McWilliams argues for a more harmonious and rational approach to our relationship with insects, one that does not harm our environment and, consequently, ourselves along the way. Beginning with the early techniques of colonial farmers and ending with the modern use of chemical insecticides, McWilliams deftly shows how America's war on insects mirrors its continual struggle with nature, economic development, technology, and federal regulation. He reveals a very American paradox: the men and women who settled and developed this country sought to control the environment and achieve certain economic goals; yet their methods of agricultural expansion undermined their efforts and linked them even closer to the inexorable realities of the insect world. As told from the perspective of the often flamboyant actors in the battle against insects, American Pests is a fascinating investigation into the attitudes, policies, and practices that continue to influence our behavior toward insects. Asking us to question, if not abandon, our reckless (and sometimes futile) attempts at insect control, McWilliams convincingly argues that insects, like people, have an inherent right to exist and that in our attempt to rid ourselves of insects, we compromise the balance of nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polemic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Medicine - Pharmacology, grade: 1, Egerton University, language: English, abstract: In the recent years, there has been a growing number of concerns about the cause and effect of using large scale pesticides for crop and general insect control. The concerns have also centered on how these pesticides are applied. There have been correlations made between aerial spraying and its impacts on the health of the general population. Notably, majority of pesticides used in the control of insects are not selective. For instance, Naled, Resmethrin and Malathion have been found to kill all insects. The numbers of insects killed include those help in keeping other insects under control. Additionally, aerial spraying threatens lives of aquatic animals and birds. More importantly, agricultural production is under threat owing to increased usage of pesticides. This is because researchers argue that the continued usage of pesticides can lead to the development of resistance genes in organisms making them hard to control. As a result, farmers incur economic costs and decreased production. With the growing concern over public health and safety, many ways we use to operate have either been changed or eliminated altogether. As examples, the use of lead in house paint and asbestos as an insulation product, have been eliminated. Their removal is highly controlled and regulated. Regulations have been developed to govern the installation of electrical circuits and plumbing product. These have been implemented because of the growing awareness over health and safety. Research has also found that some pesticides used in mosquitoes contribute to immune suppression. Ideally, the suppression of the human system can lead to allergies, cancers, autoimmune disorder and lupus. For instance, Malathion is the mostly used pesticide and can cause neurotoxicity. Malathion can also cause headaches, diarrhea and nausea. It is time to stop aerial spraying and find other, less damaging mechanisms to deal with insect infestations. There is a reason for using aerial spraying of fire retardants for forest fires. The result being everything under the airplane is covered, not just the fire. I am proposing that we should stop the usage of aerial spraying and adopt safer practices to control insects. Aerial spraying has serious ramifications to the population, and to the planet.
