What is one benefit of adhering to pesticide laws and regulations?

Adhering to pesticide laws and regulations primarily ensures public health and safety. These laws are designed to protect not only the environment but also the well-being of individuals and communities that may be exposed to these chemicals. By following these regulations, aerial applicators and pesticide users minimize the risk of harmful exposure to pesticides for humans, animals, and non-target organisms. It fosters responsible pesticide use, prevents contamination of water sources, and ensures that pesticides are used in a manner that limits negative impacts on health and the environment. This approach not only safeguards public health but also enhances the trust of the community in agricultural practices.
