MDARD proposing to restrict fly bait pesticide
The Michigan Department of Agriculture is proposing to restrict the use of a pesticide used in fly bait.
Officials are recommending all formulations of the insecticide methomyl be designated a restricted use pesticide which they say is highly toxic to humans and other mammals when misused.
Only one product is currently registered in Michigan which is used as a fly control in agricultural settings, Golden Malrin.
Public comment on the recommendation is open until January 14th.
