Yes, I believe we do need pesticides. A pesticide is a substance used for destroying insects or other organisms which are harmful to plants and animals.

If the pesticides were not there to use with animals, I am sure some species of animal would face extinction. I guess pesticides help prevent poverty, in a way. Without it, I am sure that we would soon suffer the consequences.
