The provincial government has introduced legislation that is set to take effect on April 22 banning the cosmetic use of pesticides, herbicides, insecticides and fungicides on  private lawns, fruit trees and gardens.   Under this new legislation, cosmetic use is defined as those pesticides used to improve the appearance of lawns, gardens, parks and schoolyards.  The new law replaces any current municipal bylaws currently in place.  However, the new legislation does allow for spraying in the event of emergencies such as an outbreak of West Nile virus.   For more information about The Pesticides Act and regulations you can visit the Ministry of the Environment's website at www.ontario.ca/pesticideban.   Find organic or chemical free substitute for any chemicals or pesticides you used in the past at Holland Park Garden Gallery.
