Support Beyond Pesticides Ohio

Great News: our Creating Sustainable Buildings and Grounds Project is having great success in helping major institutions transition to safer pest control practices for their lawns and building interiors. They are serving as models for the rest of Northeast Ohio. Our nationally known pest control experts are training staff at the Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals, Case Western Reserve University, the Cleveland Museum of Art, and the County Justice Center on how they can have beautiful and healthy landscapes and buildings without resorting to toxic pesticides.
It is expensive to bring in these experts. With your financial support we can continue to bring real change by creating more pesticide-free zones in our community.

It all started in Cleveland.
Inspired by our pesticide reform achievements in Cleveland, cities and schools in New York state, Connecticut, Maryland, Maine and California have also banned pesticides on public property.
Indeed:
  • In 1987, Ohio became the first state to require the posting of “Stay Off The Grass” signs after commercial chemical lawn care applications.
  • In 1995, Cleveland Heights became the first city in the nation to ban lawn pesticides on their city, school and daycare center grounds.
  • In 2012, Cuyahoga county became the first county in the nation to ban pesticides on all county owned property. ​


We appreciate your support for our efforts to protect people (especially children and the chemically sensitive), pets, and the environment from toxic pesticides, and encourage you to make a tax-deductible donation to Beyond Pesticides Ohio.

Your support will help our community transition to non-toxic pest control practices for both indoor pest control and outdoors on lawns and playing fields. Indeed, through our Safe Lawn & Garden Campaign, people will learn that they do not have to rely on toxic herbicides to have healthy beautiful lawns.  For more information on our accomplishments and services, please read our website.

Beyond Pesticides Ohio is the only organization in the state that focuses exclusively on pesticide reform.  We have had tremendous success in educating the public and public officials about the hazards of conventional pesticides and also in providing non-toxic, cost-effective, organic alternatives.
