How Pesticides Threaten Water Quality

The presence of pesticides in water systems poses significant threats not only to human health but also to the overall ecosystem. Pesticides such as herbicides and the notorious “forever chemicals”, including PFAs, are particularly troublesome given their persistent ability to remain in the environment long after their initial application. Over time, these substances can also seep into the groundwater, making contamination difficult to reverse and more costly to remediate.

  • Chlorpyrifos
  • Glyphosate (Roundup)
  • Carbaryl (Sevin)
  • Metolachlor
  • Prometon
  • Diazinon
