Insecticides are used to kill insects even in organic farming. You can’t farm without killing insects on a mass scale so why is honey not vegan when you don’t even kill them and they are beneficial to the plants?
veggietart… that is a veryyy biased source. They had to really stretch the truth. Bees are a scarce resource as well. It’s important to keep them alive because they seem to be dying on their own.
bronagain.. organic farming uses organic methods of insect control. It still kills the bugs. You HAVE to kill the bugs, there’s no way around it. I won’t look for any sources because this should be common knowledge!

I am extremely fearful of spiders. I have tried to get past my fears but I can’t, the only spiders I tolerate are daddy long legs, and anything else literally terrifies me. If I see a spider I either throw a book at it to smush it (sorry, I cannot stand them) or I vacuum it up, but I’ll end up staying awake all night with the lights on because I am so frightened of them. I don’t care where they live outside, but when they get in my house I just freak out so I was wondering, is there any sort of repellant, either a chemical spray or something existing in nature that wouldn’t be toxic that spiders hate and that would keep them away? I know this sounds a bit hysterical, but I have a phobia of them and I just would feel safer if I could keep them out. I know very little about pest control so I don’t know if there is any sort of spray available or not. Any ideas on what I can do to keep them out of my home? Or at least to try to keep them out? Thanks.

I’ve started a tomato garden just a little while ago. I’m not sure what kind of bugs these are, although I’m convinced they are blister beetles. If they are, then they are the ones that have been eating the leafs on my plants. If anyone knows what these are, how can I “battle” them..(organic insecticide..homemade?) Thank you =]
