Pesticides and gypsy moths

   

A bit of a controversy may be brewing over whether the state should use Dimilin, a pesticide that many environmentalists find dangerous, to combat the state’s current gypsy moth infestation.
   Although several other states use Dimilin successfully, some people are concerned about unintended consequences.
   I did a story for The Record today that touches on the situation.  There are no plans to use Dimilin in our region.
