Oh common, this is so childish it makes me wonder where are those vaunted
"informed discussions" here?! You are both right and refusing to
acknowledge this. There *is* logic behind stating that the responsibility
for ensuring no encroachment for insecticide spraying lies (or should be,
if that's not protected legally) with the person doing the spraying, not
the abutting neighbor. At the same time, it *does* make sense to be a good
neighbor and let people know about the risk to what's on your side of the
fence whether it's by talking or registering with the authorities. Bees,
chicken, rabbits, dogs, or simply people. Not all farming is done in
abandoned areas of this country.
There's a 100 feet distance from my parent's deck where they live in Ohio
to the first row of corn planted by the neighbor - the field is easily
50-60 acres. Side by side, a residential area right next to an intense
farm (I'm sure people living in the corn belt know exactly what I'm
talking about). How is that different from someone having bees on a
property? Down the road someone is running a licensed daycare facility
also surrounded by corn, soy and alfalfa fields. Shouldn't the farmer be
aware of this, but also legally liable if he/she lets pesticide spraying
cross the boundary?
It's an easily reconcilable idea and lets us move forward to fight about
more important things.
