    Petition against secret arial spraying


    Many Californians remember the state's 2007 proposal to spray pesticides out of airplanes onto ten million people in an attempt to kill the apple moth, an insect that scientists say has been in California for decades and has never done significant crop damage.
    But you may not know that CEH helped lead the fight to stop the spraying.
    Unfortunately California pesticide agencies are at it again. A recent court ruling allows the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) to spray pesticides for the apple moth anywhere, anytime, with no notice to the people who will get sprayed. This kind of secret spraying is something that CDFA has routinely done. Just this summer CDFA sprayed backyards in Sacramento before any public meeting about the spraying occurred and before the agency website had any information.
    And the apple moth spraying may be just the start. CDFA is preparing to seek approval to spray pesticides for a long list of other insects anywhere in California, without notice and without any proof that these sprays are necessary or even work.

    Go to ceh.org to sign a petition against secret arial spraying.
