Pyrethrins and home gardening

I trimmed Gene McAvoy's post down it down to the bare minimum below. My note: Home gardeners only have pyrethrins to fight insects such as stink and squash bugs.

The EPA has recently completed a draft risk assessment for pyrethrins that could result in significant restrictions to labels, or even products being removed from the market entirely. This affects all products that contain pyrethrins, regardless of manufacturer.

These botanically derived products have been used in our industry for decades and are trusted by PCOs, business owners and homeowners.
