About 10 days ago, a friend showed me the following photos which had been taken at a local Home Depot store. I was disturbed at the use of the word "approved" which, as we know, doesn't mean "tested and found safe." My understanding is that many pesticides that the EPA approves for sale have not in fact been tested. But customers are going to see this sign and think that neonicotinoids are safe.
