But the safe application of approved pesticides calls for training, proper equipment, and experience in using them. An inexperienced applicator may not have all those and therefore puts your family in great danger of being exposed to these pesticides.

According to consumer watch agencies; any kind of chemical spray poses some extent of risks. And the risks are escalated when the applicator is untrained or not properly trained. Furthermore, inexperienced applicators may only cause you to realize losses by spraying chemicals inappropriately or by applying chemicals that do not work for your situation.

They may also expose you to avoidable risk. When chemicals are misapplied, it translates into more toxins reaching the pets and children. They can also cause problems to natural foliage as well as non-threatening insects; some of which also protect you from other destructive insects. Last but not least, misapplied chemicals have been one of the major causes of insecticide resistant. This results in worsening situations of the prevalent insect problems.
