Dezinsekcija: otvoreno pismo Općini Jelsa

Objavljeno u Zanimljivosti

S obzirom da praksa dezinsekcije na Otoku Hvaru stvori sve više problema za okoliš i ljudsko zdravlje, Udruga Eco Hvar je uputila otvoreno pismo preko maila lokalnoj zajednici na dan 13. kolovoza 2022.god.

Poštovani,

Predmet: Korištenje sredstava na bazi cipermetrina za dezinsekciju u Općini Jelsa.

Nažalost, akcije zaprašivanja protiv komaraca u Općini Jelsa još uvijek su razlog za zabrinutost. Kolateralne štete su ogromne i sve više vidljive. Mještani i gosti su izloženi opasnim otrovima. Mjere opreza uopće se ne poštuju. Lani je pčelar u Zavali izgubio svoje pčele nakon akcije dezinsekcije. Upozorenja nije bilo. To sve škodi kvaliteti života na otoku i naravno ima loš utjecaj na turizam.

Lani (2021.god.) za zaprašivanje su korištena tri sredstva na bazi piretroida: Neo alfa, Neopitroid alfa i Cipex 10E.

Na popisu registriranih biocidnih pripravaka pri Ministarstvu Zdravstva (Registar biocidnih pripravaka - studeni 2021.) aktivna tvar u Neo alfa je cipermetrin (broj pripravka 2674); alfacipermetrin nije na popisu; 'Neopitroid alfa' je biocidni pripravak na bazi alfacipermetrina, a nije na popisu dozvoljenih biocidnih pripravaka pri Ministarstvu Zdravstva u Hrvatskoj. Niti Cipex 10E (aktivna tvar cipermetrin) nije više na popisu dozvoljenih biocida.

Na europskoj bazi pesticida (EU Pesticides Database) cipermetrin ima dozvolu pod uvjetima namjenjenim zaštiti polinatora:

„dopuštene su samo uporabe izvan razdoblja cvatnje kultura te u razdoblju kada nisu prisutni korovi u cvatu.“ (više u privitku)

Europska agencija za kemikalije (ECHA) izdaje dozvole za biocidne pripravke. Piktogrami (ECHA Infocard u privitku) su dokaz da je cǐpermetrin opasna tvar i za ljude i za okoliš. Doduše je otrovan za mačke i opasan za pse. Nema trenutačno popisa dozvoljenih sredstava na bazi cipermetrina pri ECHA-u.

Cipermetrin, ECHA infocard

(na portalu Udruge Eco Hvar ima više detalja o dozvolama za pesticide: 'Pesticidi, zakoni i dozvole' i o mogućim nuspojavama pesticida: 'Pesticidni proizvodi u Hrvatskoj')

Udruga Eco Hvar već godinama upozorava da prakse dezinskecije uzrokuju puno problema, a nema nikakvog dokaza da su smanjile prisutnost komaraca - vidjeti naše članke 'Zašto trujemo naš raj? - poziv na buđenje!' i 'Insekti nam trebaju!'

HITNO zahtjevamo da ne bude opet prskanja u našoj Općini sa takvim sredstvima. Planirane akcije za ovaj mjesec se trebaju otkazati. Općina bi trebala voditi računa o praksi dezinsekcije i osigurati da mjere opreza, uključujući adekvatan nadzor, iz Plana provedbe se poštuju.

S poštovanjem,

Vivian Grisogono MA(Oxon)

  • Bigger cars including electric can cause multiple harms, yet resistance to rise of US-style vehicles has had mixed support

    On a brisk winter’s evening in Europe’s automotive heartland, a cyclist who had pushed for safer streets went out on his bike for a final time. Andreas Mandalka had documented dangerous driving and shoddy cycling infrastructure for years, measuring the margins at which cars zipped past him and posting videos of blatant violations. While quick to remind readers that only a small proportion of drivers behaved badly, the 44-year-old blogger in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, had grown frustrated with authorities for failing to act. He felt they viewed him as a nuisance.

    As he cycled down a straight stretch of renovated road that runs parallel to a forest path he had flagged for poor quality, lights bright on his bike and helmet firm on his head, he was fatally struck from behind by a car.

  • Debate continues to rage over whether a strange carcass found in 1937 was a new species or a basking shark. Either way, the case reveals how little is known about what lies beneath the waves

    Its head resembled a dog’s, its downturned nose a camel’s, and at the end of its reptilian body was the tail of horse. Witnesses say it was covered in a thin white film. When the remains of a strange creature were pulled from the stomach of a sperm whale, most of those present agreed: it was a sea monster – or at least something unknown living in the depths off Canada’s west coast.

    Crews at the whaling station in the archipelago of Haida Gwaii assembled a platform of wooden boxes and laid out the 3-metre (10ft) carcass, using a white sheet to display the curiosity that had baffled veteran whalers.

  • Firm benefits from conflict to rake in $6.9bn as higher energy prices turbocharge profits

    Shell has reported better than expected profits of $6.9bn (£5bn) after its oil traders reaped the benefits of soaring energy prices during the war in Iran, angering climate campaigners.

    Europe’s biggest oil and gas company posted a 115% jump in first-quarter profits from the $3.2bn reported in the last three months of 2025.

  • As Reform vows to block solar and windfarms, energy leaders say renewables offer most secure future, insulating UK from hostile forces

    May elections: What’s at stake across England, Wales and Scotland?

    The defining issue of Thursday’s local elections, feedback from doorsteps suggests, will be the UK’s soaring cost of living. But voters should be told about the links between inflation and the effects of fossil fuels and the climate crisis – or the remedies they choose – may make the situation worse, green campaigners have warned.

    Ami McCarthy, the head of politics at Greenpeace UK, said: “With people’s bills and prices soaring from yet another fossil fuel crisis, these local elections have a global context – driven by the Iran war.

  • Approval for exploration in 70 new areas prompts fierce backlash from fossil fuel opponents

    The Norwegian government has been heavily criticised for approving plans to reopen three North Sea gasfields nearly three decades after they were closed to help fill the gap in energy supplies created by the Middle East war.

    Amid sharp price rises in oil and gas since the US and Israel’s attack on Iran in February, Oslo has also given its approval for oil and gas companies to explore in 70 new locations in the North Sea, Barents Sea and Norwegian Sea.

  • Julie, once a circus elephant, and Kariba, from a Belgian zoo, are to be moved to a former ranch in Portugal

    Europe’s first large-scale elephant sanctuary, which is opening to offer a more natural environment for some of the 600 animals still held in captivity across the continent, is to receive its first arrivals.

    Julie, Portugal’s last circus elephant, will be moved next month to the animal charity Pangea’s multimillion pound sanctuary in the Alentejo, 200km (124 miles) east of Lisbon, close to the border with Spain.

  • Powerful property and farming firm Grosvenor Group says knock-on effect of Iran war could arrive next year

    Fertiliser shortages caused by the Iran war have driven up costs for UK farmers by up to 70% and will have a “dramatic” impact on food prices globally next year, according to one of Britain’s most powerful property and farming companies.

    Mark Preston, executive trustee of the 349-year-old Grosvenor Group, controlled by the Duke of Westminster, said fertiliser “was already quite expensive” before the 50% to 70% surge in prices since the start of the Iran war in late February.

  • Powerful radar system is providing new data on city’s subsidence, which experts hope will draw more attention to it

    Walking into Mexico City’s sprawling central Zócalo is a dizzying experience. At one end of the plaza, the capital’s cathedral, with its soaring spires, slumps in one direction. An attached church, known as the Metropolitan Sanctuary, tilts in the other. The nearby National Palace also seems off-kilter.

    The teetering of many of the capital’s historic buildings is the most visible sign of a phenomenon that has been ongoing for more than a century: Mexico City is sinking at an alarming rate.

  • To celebrate Sir David Attenborough’s centenary, Madeleine Finlay catches up with natural history writer Patrick Barkham, who has met the celebrated presenter. They explore how the natural world has changed in the century that Attenborough has been on Earth, and how his programming has reflected his growing commitment to highlighting the devastating impacts of the climate crisis on nature and biodiversity

  • Austrian capital mulls expanding tram network and park-and-ride car parks in effort to reduce private vehicle use

    When Leonore Gewessler hops on the underground trains and street-level trams that run like clockwork across the breadth of Vienna, she appreciates the ease, affordability and time she “gets as a present” instead of idling in traffic. But Austria’s former climate and transport minister is also aware that cars still dominate the capital’s streets. She says good public transport is just the “precondition” to changing how people move around the city.

    Vienna’s network of trains, trams and buses have long been the envy of other European cities – let alone car-centric North American ones – but automobiles are still used for a quarter of journeys. In other capitals famed for world-class public transport, such as London, Paris and Prague, even higher use of cars has frustrated doctors and campaigners demanding cleaner air and safer streets.
