Summary: Alice Bierhorst, a private individual, requests that the agency consider the health of pollinators and the broader ecosystem when designing the suppression program. She expresses concern that insecticides used in the program could harm beneficial insects and pollute water and soil.
hi folks - I'm sure you are very committed to protecting our lands, and only ask that the health of pollinators and the ecosystem as a whole be considered in any program designed to manage orthoptera populations. insecticides can be a heavy blanket that destroys beneficial insects and pollutes water and soil.
thanks for your consideration.
