Definition of Pesticides

A pesticide is any substance or mixture of substances intended for:

• Preventing

• Destroying

• Repelling

• Mitigating (reducing the damage caused by)

Any pest

The term "pest" is broad and can include insects, weeds, rodents, fungi, bacteria, viruses, and other organisms that compete with humans for food, destroy property, spread disease, or are considered a nuisance.

Key Components of the Definition:

Intentional Use: A substance is legally considered a pesticide based on its intended use, not its chemical composition. For example, vinegar is a food product, but if it is marketed and used to kill weeds, it is legally classified as a pesticide.

Active Ingredient: This is the chemical component that actually kills or controls the pest.

Inert Ingredients: These are non-pesticidal substances added to the product to improve its effectiveness, handling, or application (e.g., solvents, carriers, emulsifiers).

Common Categories of Pesticides:

Pesticides are often categorized based on the type of pest they target:

• Herbicides: Target weeds and unwanted plants (e.g., glyphosate, glufosinate, 2,4-D).

• Insecticides: Target insects (e.g., permethrin, imidacloprid).

• Fungicides: Target fungi, molds, and mildew (e.g., chlorothalonil, propiconazole).

• Rodenticides: Target rodents like rats and mice.

• Bactericides: Target bacteria.

• Algaecides: Target algae in pools and water systems.

• Disinfectants & Antimicrobials: Target germs and pathogens on surfaces.
