I've recently been doing some reading on organic gardening, mainly because I was looking at how to achieve the best results with my grass.

Firstly I was wondering whether any of you guys involved in the pest control industry are interested in organic pest control? I'm interested to learn more about getting the right balance of life to ensure that common garden pests stay under control.

The other thing that I found quite interesting is that there are pesticides which have been banned elsewhere (e.g. dursban in the US) which are readily available here in SA.

Why is that? Are there just no laws to stop distribution of pesticides which are known to be dangerous?

Looking forward to your comments
