EPA has launched a new website providing information on the effectiveness and safety of (skin-applied) registered insecticide products, available for sale in the marketplace. It will help consumers make better choices to protect themselves from the potential toxic effects that may come from insecticide over-application/misuse. The website also contains information on safe use of insecticides against vector-borne diseases such as West Nile virus and Lyme disease (a seasonally longer period of use including the fall and early winter), as well as personal protection measures. The web page can be accessed by clicking on the link below.
