| Summary: | Proceedings of a symposium held in San Francisco in April 1992. The urban environment discussed includes homes, yards, gardens, public parks, golf courses, and restaurants. Some common products for the urban market are turf pesticides, termiticides, home and garden pesticides, indoor pesticides, and rodenticides. The papers are divided into five sections, each focusing on a different facet of urban pesticide use: pests and pesticides, dissipation of pesticides, mobility of pesticides, urban pesticides and humans, and urban pesticides and nontarget animals.
