HELP! Our neighbor values a green lawn more than a life! They constantly have their yard, trees and shrubs sprayed with pesticides. Pesticides that are on the EPA's list of endocrine disruptors. We have a pesticide free yard and organic garden. Every month, we have to cover my garden and fruit trees to keep the lawn care company from over-spraying onto our garden and fruit trees. This last time, I caught them spraying full blast and it coming through the fence that clearly divides our property lines. I stopped them just short of spraying my honeysuckle vines that cascade over the fence. They know I am pesticide sensitive and am trying to keep the spray off my yard. The lawn care company boasts they have the right to do this!!! And that they can spray anything that is on the neighbor's side of the fence and that our concern for over-spray is not substantiated. They are saying I do not have the right to a pesticide-free yard!!! We must go cry out to our city, county, state and federal governments to get over-spraying to be illegal. Every homeowner in America should have the right to NOT HAVE HARMFUL CHEMICALS SPRAYED ON THEIR LAWNS VIA THEIR NEIGHBOR! Help me start this fight! After all, the tomato you pick from your organic garden may have the pesticides from your neighbor on it. Do you feel safe feeding it to your children? Contact the Governor of Colorado, Bill Ritter and tell him Bev Veals wants Residential Pesticide Use Guidelines! I am a 9-year, two-time, advanced stage breast cancer survivor. PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!

Nov 23, 2008 - maybe you should register as cheical sensitive! maybe, you should lock your nut bag of a wife up when they are around. No where in this video does it show how your wife comes out, tells the technicians to " get cANCER AND HAVE THEIR BALLS FALL OFF" . Or does it show how she comes out flashes the techs with her chest. Also no where does it show her running around in the yard screaming how they are giving her cancer.Perhaps, your wife, should stay the hell inside when they are around.

Nov 23, 2008 - We are registered as pesticide sensitive. I explained that in the video. My "nut bag" wife would stay inside if the company's sprayers would correctly do their job. She would not have a problem with the spray if the first sprayer continued to spray the properties. She would also not have a problem if this company wasn't threatening her hard work every 3 or 4 weeks.I find it interesting "MThorp1" that you had a profile on the morning of 9-19-08 and now it is cancelled. Hiding from something?

Nov 23, 2008 - Have we not learned that our ecosystem is only respondent to survival if all aspects of the system are present? Man just by himself can not sustain the planet. Through the sin of Adam and Eve, God gave man the knowledge to care for this world. When we destroy the balance of this planet through laziness and irresponsible tactics, such as with pesticides, we fail God. For the love of money, man continues to fall. God does not shed His Grace on such destruction. The Devil smiles. And Jesus weeps.

Nov 23, 2008 - Until a life threatening health issue affects us individually or someone we love, we cannot grasp just how bad these pesticides are. They kill our beloved best friends (pets) left unaware and unprotected in our yards. They cause cancer in our children. CALL GOVERNOR RITTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE ARE ALL NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nov 23, 2008 - Everyone needs to be responsible on how lawn care companies spray their yards. Most times, people are at work and have no clue. I was in the hospital with pneumonia after a neighbor had their fence sprayed for spiders as I was sitting on the other side painting. It's not right.
