Herbicides and pesticides: When controlling weeds, pests and diseases it is essential to choose the right solution

摘要

There are many reasons why weeds, pests and diseases need controlling in the landscape and in turf. It may be that they simply look unsightly, but they can also bring other problems. Weeds in pavements are clearly a trip hazard, likely to damage the paving and can collect litter and dust that poses a fire hazard and invites vermin. The local population loses pride in the area and the following downward spiral often ends in graffiti and vandalism. In sports turf it is the payability that is at stake.If the playing surface is in a poor condition, user expectation will be dented. There may be accidents and claims for compensation. Players may go elsewhere for their sport - with a resulting loss of income.
