Experts warn that any type of pesticide can be dangerous Deseret News: "Utahns are calling experts anxious to know if the products they use — or hire others to apply — are dangerous. And the short, too-simple answer is yes, said Diane Alston, entomologist with Utah State University Extension. Anything, she said, has the potential to do harm if it's not used right. And pesticides can be very dangerous. 'I don't think most people realize the importance or potential consequences.' Even so, 'Given all the products, the incidents (of harm) we know about are pretty low.'"
