Because of the estimated rate constant for dichlorvos reaction with hydroxyl radicals, the atmospheric half-life is estimated to be 1 day (Kwok and Atkinson, 1995).

Even if your figuring is correct, they are releasing continuously. And Half-life means 1/2 of it is still there at the end of the half life period. -granger

I should have also included the source in the post. I get your point and i agree. I guess it is a matter of perspective and context. Like LD50. At what point does one decide how much is too much? Is it worth it? Choosing the lesser of two evils, some may not choose evil at all.

Who's everyone voting for this election?

Ive killed plants in a bag with a hot strip

I put two of um in a 5x5 tent and sealed it up for 2 days and them mites STILL comin. Guess I got super mites, hit um with twice three days apart with mighty wash, then three days later floramite, then three days later floramite again, they still alive. think i might have to use gasoline and uh match on these mothasuckas...

Damn! Super mites thats super horrible. Seriously after all that.....they must be hiding somewhere really good. I really hope their resistance isnt that good already.....what will we do if our stuff doesnt work anymore? Floramite? Thats the big guns right?

Geeze sorry to hear about your struggle. Im up for round 2 of Me vs. Mites. The strips worked for me great. But they did come back, 3-4 months later. I have to admit i probably brought them back into the grow room myself. We have animals and i have been less than perfect with my clean standards. It seems that hyper-vigilance is the only cure.

Some studies are actually showing residues from Dichlovs in dispensary cannabis.

Might be time to reconsider whether Dichlorvos (No Pest strips) are really safe for use around cannabis.

I would imagine timing is key...yeehaw..using anything on flowers can be bad..

Less toxic options are available. I wish I had been much less trusting of things like this. Cancer changed my perspective.
