"They sprayed for Dengue carrying mosquitoes in Pasco County. It killed some of my bonsai plants that I have been growing for 25 years. A woman down the street who grows bees lost several hives. It has severely impacted our banana plants. How many other insects have been eliminated? How many frogs- that eat mosquitoes- have been killed? How many birds will die directly from this spray- or indirectly from eating poisoned insects? How may other growers have suffered losses from this helicopter sprayed toxin? Has livestock and people's pets taken a hit? How much money was spent to fix a problem and yet created many more in the process. To date there has been ONE death in Florida from Dengue. That singular death was an elderly woman whose health was already compromised by other factors. I Death only! Would we bomb a school where there was an active shooter? Would we plow over 1 square mile because a poison ivy plant was found? I'll give that maybe I'm over reacting - or am I? It seems to me the the cure is much worse than the disease. " - Fred LePiere
