Ms.
Perdont, CEO of Perdont Poultry
Industries and Ms. Rao, Director of the
Citizens Health Initiative for Protecting
People and Environments in Ramford (CHIPPER)
present a proposal to re-introduce the
application of the banned insecticide DDT. The
proposal is based on the:
- effectiveness of this chemical in
mosquito control;
- threat to human health;
- damage to the industry from the SRRV
epidemic last year; and
- the potential for a major serge in the
epidemic in the next mosquito season.
