Do more well-accepted organic pesticides have these kinds of problems with bulk handling? Because otherwise I feel like this should be reason enough to avoid it.
- JamesBarney 7y agoYes see the toxicology section. It's way worse than glyphosate. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper(II)_sulfate https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper(II)_sulfate
- mehrdadn 7y agoThis isn't really what I was going for with "well-accepted" but I guess it's better than nothing, thanks. Copper sulfate's presence on that list is just about as questionable as glyphosate so I was hoping for something that people would actually think of as an organic pesticide (natural, etc. like already discussed earlier) not something that merely meets the federal requirements to be called 'organic'.
