Forgive me if I do not take your visit to Africa as proof of your theory of DDT and the war on malaria for the children of Africa. The evidence to the contrary is substantial ... Just as the evidence of your pov re Fox News being incorrect is.

The concentrations necessary are not going to solve the malaria problem without huge effects on nature there... You might want to check this out: en.wikipedia.org The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends indoor residual spraying (IRS), with DDT as a malaria vector control measure. (No huge effects on nature with IRS.) About 700,000 deaths per year, many could be prevented with an IRS program. malariajournal.com Millions of people are dead because of ignorant and un-scientific opposition to DDT from various "Green" groups. I didn't have to go to Africa to learn this.
