History of Pesticides

Published: Jan. 25, 2019, 5 a.m.

Pesticides are now a daily part of our world, from the anti-bacterial soaps we use to the commercial pesticides that are applied to our food. Despite the fact that the chemical age of pesticides has just skyrocketed in the last decade, the use of pesticides has been thousands of years in development. Join SPEX CertiPrep as we look at the history of pesticides, the development of modern pesticides and how those pesticides are applied and regulated. We will examine the genesis of the chemical pesticide movement and explore the regulation, approval and application of modern pesticides and take a look into the future of pesticide management.

Hosted by Patricia Atkins, Senior Applications Scientist
