The other body is the Ministry of Environment here in Ontario that regulates the sale <strong>and </strong>use of all such products. I would agree that it has nothing to do with safety. If it were a safety issue, the traditional low risk products for weeds, grubs and insects would still be allowed on home lawns, NOT just golf courses, High stature sports fields, and certainly if it were unsafe it would be used by farmers on our food supply... Heck- I just got a new puppy that we rescued, and the product "Imidacloprid" that was formerly used to manage the terrible grub problem in the GTA is recommended an allowed to be used at a much higher concentration then was used on lawns, but it is applied to the nape of her neck so it can enter her blood stream to manage fleas... So it's safe enough for that???

Sounds like a business ($$$) issue, not a true safety issue. I do not understand why Fiesta would require a license to purchase and everyone can buy Weed B Gone.

Is a license required to purchase this in concentrate? I have several family members interested so concentrated would probably be cheaper.
