Why NOT use

Toxic Pesticides?

Most pesticides are guaranteed to work, so

why not use them?

The answer is simple … agents toxic to

cellular tissue can have devastating effects on

the respiratory system, nervous system, and

the immune system:

1. Once inside the brain, toxins can alter the

ability to concentrate & can lead to

nervous system disorders and permanent

learning disabilities

2. Toxins overload the immune system &

lead to less resistance to colds, flu-like

systems, etc.

3. Toxins cause sensitivity of the respiratory

system, and lead to proliferation of

allergies and asthma

4. Toxins have been linked to liver & kidney

damage and many forms of cancer. Recent

studies by the National Institute of Health

& Safety and the National Cancer Institute,

show that leukemia risk increases greatly

for children and adults where toxic

pesticides are used in the home and

garden. A cancer journal reported

children under ten, exposed to toxic

pesticides in the home or garden at least

once a month, have a 7x higher incidence

of leukemia.

5. Some toxic pesticides can produce

demyelination in nerve bundles and the

spinal cord - this can lead to M.S. and

paralysis

What are Your Choices?

Are people actually willing to take this risk

and contribute to this suffering in order to kill

ants, fleas, spiders, moths, and other insects?

Certainly, this is sufficient confirmation to

persuade every reader of this brochure to

never again purchase toxic pesticides.

So what are your options? The answer is

obvious …

Basic H² is an all organic, biodegradable wetting

agent … actually making water 300 times wetter.

It is concentrated and economical. It was

developed in cooperation with nature, as are all

Shaklee products. When mixed with water, Basic

H² delivers an immediate wetting (surfactant)

action, penetrating dirt and emulsifying grease and

oil. For this reason, it has been used for almost 50

years as a general purpose cleaner.

Basic-Germicide, as its name indicates, is a

versatile, non-polluting germicide, which is

totally biodegradable and will not hurt the

environment.

How Does it Work?

Since 90% of insects have an oil coating,

Shaklee Basic H², as a wetting agent,

penetrates the outer shell and actually

suffocates the insects. Insects eggs are

softened by the spray, which prevents

hatching.

NOTE: Officially, Shaklee Corporation markets

Basic H² as a Household Cleaner and Basic-

Germicide as a Highly Concentrated Germicide.

These pest control recommendations are not

published by Shaklee Corporation, but have been

gathered from environmental field experts.
