The lawyer warned of a fine for improper treatment of the suburban area with chemicals

Summer residents can receive a fine in case of violation of the rules for the use of pesticides and agrochemicals during the processing of the suburban area. Lawyer Timur Hardy announced this on July 5.

"Summer residents should not use pesticides intended exclusively for professionals or agriculture. Failure to comply with these rules can result in a fine of 1 to 2 thousand rubles," the expert said in an interview with the Prime agency.

According to him, a catalog of chemicals approved for use in Russia can be found on the official website of the Ministry of Agriculture. In the event that the drug is not on the list, it cannot be used. In addition, before using it, it is necessary to study the instructions and learn about the possible harm of the chemical to animals.

Hardy added that certain types of pesticides and agrochemicals can cause cancer and other diseases in animals, birds and humans. In addition, many substances pollute the soil and groundwater for a long time.
