Pesticides have harmful effects on the environment, causing pollution in soil and air. Some pesticides take a long time to break down, harming animals, microorganisms, trees, and humans. However, natural pesticides called biopesticides are better for controlling pests. Biopesticides degrade quickly in soil or sunlight, making them safer for the environment and non-toxic for humans and animals. They also disappear faster from fruits and vegetables, allowing us to eat them sooner. Biopesticides help the soil return to its natural state after use.
