The result is you can’t get a right number of crops or the growth of plants. Insecticides reduce the number of bees which is a loss in the field of cultivation;Bad effects on animals,When you spray insecticides, the residues remain in the foods and goes inside the stomach of the animals. Insecticide has the ability to change the food habit and malnutrition in the animals. The residues of it can affect the whole food chain.
