Follow the money, if you want to know why the spraying was needed.

Wahoo- it is a victory for the public so far. CDFA still threatens to use toxic twist ties, eight foot tree splattering, ground spraying of worse pesticide spray. The court stopped because the CDFA and USDA admitted there has been NO CROP DAMAGE to date! (They’re guessing what it might do.) Scientists found the moth to actually be here 30-50 years. They sprayed us several nights for 2 months with an untested sythenthic pheromone pesticide cocktail with hidden inert ingredients. 643 People filled out a form that got sick. The health department would not help us. No one yet has contacted the 643 people to fill out the OEH 700 form they want. Many more hundreds of people were sick. Birds died, bees died, animals sick. We were told to shut our doors and windows at 8pm. We are cities by the ocean, we do not have farms. People were vomiting, couldn’t breathe, metal taste in our mouths. Then we found the spray was delivered in micro plastic capusles that released the spray slowing for 30 to 60 days! It’s not right. No one from California EPA, OEHHA, Hazmat, DPR has arrived to help. Strengthen the laws to halt this. The emergency which bypassed the E.I.R. (Environmental Impact Report)gave USDA and CDFA millions of dollars to spray the people of American with an untested chemical. YOU could be next. Have you legislators and senators make laws to help the people. We are better now, and our backyard birds have returned. Monterey County and Santa Cruz County Thanks for listening.
