What is a Pesticide
A pesticide is a special substance that people use to get rid of or control pests. Pests can be all kinds of things like insects, rodents, weeds, and other living things that can cause harm to plants, animals, or even us humans. Pesticides come in different forms, like sprays, powders, or liquids, and they're used in different places, such as farms, homes, and public areas. When pests are causing problems, people apply pesticides to kill or repel them.
There are different types of pesticides for different pests. Some pesticides kill insects, others get rid of weeds, and some fight against diseases caused by fungi or bacteria. Some pesticides can affect many different pests, while others are made to target specific ones.
