Pesticide Development - A Brief Look at the History

2007/03/01

Although the history of pest control likely began with the first human who swatted a mosquito or picked off a tick, it was not until the emergence of organized agriculture, when pests attacked the plants we grew for food and threatened our very own survival, did the battle for the control of our planet begin. Today, we have far more uses for pesticides.They are essential to the efficient use of our natural resources.
