Pesticides and The Health Hazards Associated with them

First and foremost, a pesticide is a chemical substance used to kill harmful insects, small animals, wild plants and other unwanted organisms. Meaning its soul purpose is to kill, so can a healthier, risk free version be made? The answer is no, because a pesticide can never be completely risk free but lower risk versions are being made. Moreover, pesticides certainly have a positive aspect, they are helpful, readily available, and cheaper than other methods. Although pesticides have positives they also have a list of negative side effect to both the environment and humans.
