"Bad" types of radiation are the types that hurt you. So there is no really bad types, only bad uses.

See the website here for the different types:

Then decide for yourself what is a good use and a bad use for the different types of radiation.

What is beta radiation properties?

Beta particles or radiation is an electron emitted at high speed or energy from some types of unstable elements in a process known as beta-decay. Beta radiation is not healthy for living things. It is usually stopped by a few millimeters of metal, wood, or plastic. Direct exposure to the skin can cause radiation burns.
