Important Alert from the EPA About Unregistered Pesticides
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued an alert regarding the illegal use of pesticides containing dichlorvos, also known as DDVP, in apartment buildings. These are illegal, unregistered pesticides that can be dangerous to you, your family, and your neighbors. These products are being brought into the country and illegally sold or distributed for use against insects and other pests. Please see below for examples of DDVP pesticides and how to dispose of them properly. You can also visit the EPA’s website for more information, including what to do in case of exposure.
