Don't smell the flowers Kids and pesticides don't mix Put your garden in rehab Get out of town! Banning pesticides in your communityGet out of town! Banning pesticides in your community Pesticides in residential communities are primarily used to beautify gardens. (They’re the botox and false eyelashes of the gardening world.) These chemicals are also completely unnecessary.The easiest way to prevent pesticides from leaching into the environment is to simply ban them. Many communities are doing just that. More than 150 Canadian municipalities, as well as the province of Quebec, have passed laws banning the use of pesticides for cosmetic, non-essential purposes. Your city or town can join the list.
