<<Second, DDT is not only cheap but relatively safe around people and animals.>>

I remember back in the 60s when they fogged streets with it. I think the biggest problem with it was no restrictions on use. Kind of a thing where some is good but too much is really bad.

DDT has been around for so long that anyone with the ability can probably make the stuff without worrying about a royalty payment.

Of course. I didn't consider that the ban on DDT might not be permanent so a new effort might be for naught. Thank you.
