Depends on the type and some work in more than one way. For example boric acid is a stomach poison most bugs ingest when they groom, however, dusts can also clog the spiracles (holes in abdomen they breathe through) or dry out their exoskeletons (dessicants) Organophosphates act on their nervous systems and eventually they freeze (are unable to move) and starve. Contact sprays are simply absorbed through their bodies in most cases. Some insects eat the droppings of adults are are poisoned from adults who ate and passed poison bait, killing more than one generation.
Yes pesticides are some what bad because of what they do, they kill insects. They also go threw the ground and eventually end in water making pollution... Some of the insects that the pesticides kill are actually not going to hurt the plants that the pesticides are on in the first place. that means pesticides kill and pollute, does that sound very good. Pesticides are made from chemicals, bad ones at that and poison's in poison's out.
Non-persistent and persistent pesticides are equally dangerous, but non-persistent has immediate impacts whereas persistent pesticides wield long-term effects.Specifically, non-persistent pesticides include the super-powerful organophosphate malathion. They may impact people and wildlife for hours to weeks until they degenerate. In contrast, chlorinated hydrocarbons represent prime examples of persistent pesticides which survive for months to decades in the environment.It is the difference between immediate, sudden death or disability and long-term, protracted fatalities.
Pesticides can cause some problems if people consume too many of them, but they can also be a good thing. The use of pesticides has made a lot more food available for people by getting rid of many of the insects that used to destroy the crops.
Rain and other water will carry your pesticides to other areas where they may not be wanted.
They are designed to be, but only for the targeted pest. They are safe to use provided used responsibly. Pesticide poisoning is possible, but the people at greatest risk are those with repeat exposure (that work with it routinely)
Organophosphate pesticides attack the nervous system of insects and animals leading to death. These are dangerous.
pesticides kill insects. Pesticides contain carcinogenic ingredients. Pesticides have warning lables that say not to inhale them or make contact with their skin. You do the math.
Your moms carcinogens are in pesticides?!?!?!?!?!
Fungus does not kill pesticides, pesticides (fungicide to be exact) kill fungus.
pesticides can be grouped according to
It is supposed that biopesticides are not so dangerous for the environment as artificial pesticides.

Bio-pesticides are pesticides that only contain natural materials rather than chemicals found in most other forms. Essentially they are environmently-friendly pesticides.
It made sense until ' by using no pesticides ' . How does she not use pesticides to borrow a book... ? Ambiguous Modifier Apex.
Chlorinated Pesticides are nerve agents used in agriculture as pesticides, around homes as termiticides, and in grains as fungicides.
Diatomaceous Earth is a very good one and popular/Boric Acid too and both work equally well. Plant & food oils are used in aerosols with good results
