MambaJamba Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 I am living here in gated community, generally speaking there is a gated area with many houses and private park inside. The problem is they spray pesticides in that park on monthly basis, sometimes even more than one time per month. We have children, pregnant women and small dogs living there and walking in that park. With the amount of pesticide they use it is dangerous and not pleasant to walk there. It looks beautiful but smell like chemical factory quite often. I just do not like to live like that. What is the point to have a park if cannot use but need to avoid it. I've heard they tighten pesticide regulation in Thailand recently, so my question is it legal to use pesticides here in living community in town area?

VocalNeal Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 (edited) Pesticides for what? Maybe they are fogging for mosquitoes to stop you all getting dengue? Did you ask? Surely there is an office in the community? No mosquitoes up north. The rice straw smoke keeps them away.

MambaJamba Posted November 17, 2020 Author Share Posted November 17, 2020 They use pesticides on trees, they say bugs, insects and diseases killing trees, so they need to use it to maintain park look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumbastheycome Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 You would need to establish what chemicals are being used before any real concerns could be acted on. In a gated community such information should be not so difficult to find? If in reality it is the fogger smoke to eliminate mosquito then despite the common complaint of bad smell it is said to be relatively harmless to humans.

We must have different mozzies around here ! I am sure they compact rice straw smoke into packets just so as to sustain themselves for a frantic attack on people !

I have a storage box outside for garden tools and I went in there today to grab the hedge clippers and one of those nasty monster roaches was scurrying about. Saturated the box and surrounding perimeter with pesticides.. It's the darn neighbors and their backyard kitchens..living like stone age humans instead of keeping their kitchen inside. I spray about once a month around the outside of the house, all cracks and drains..otherwise you'll be overrun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
