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.

Dezinsekcija: otvoreno pismo Općini Jelsa

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)

  • ‘I’m losing £1,800 a day’: the stark reality for Britain’s dairy farmers

    The cost of producing milk is higher than that being paid by milk processors, leaving farmers operating at a loss

    “Every morning that I roll out of bed at 4.40am, I know I’m losing £1,800 that day, just by getting up.” This is the stark daily reality for Paul Tompkins, as he and his fellow dairy farmers struggle in the face of plummeting milk prices.

    Tompkins, who is the third generation to run his family’s 234-hectare (600-acre) farm in the Vale of York, can produce milk for about 40p a litre from his 500-strong herd of black and white Holstein cows. However, he is being paid only 29p a litre by his milk processor, leaving him operating at a loss, despite trying to run his business as efficiently as possible.

  • Rare twins born in DRC raise cautious hope for endangered mountain gorillas

    Virunga park ranger says babies are well cared for by mother Mafuko but high infant mortality makes first weeks critical

    It was noon by the time Jacques Katutu first saw the newborn mountain gorillas. Cradled in the arms of their mother, Mafuko, the tiny twins clung to her body for warmth in the forest clearing in Virunga national park, in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

    Katutu, head of gorilla monitoring in Virunga, has seen dozens of newborns in his 15 years as a ranger. But, he tells the Guardian, even he was touched by the sight of the fragile infant males, who face serious obstacles if they are to become silverbacks one day.

  • UK urged to ratify high seas treaty to avoid being shut out of Ocean Cop summit

    As international treaty comes into force, bill to make it law in Britain is moving at ‘glacial pace’ through parliament

    The UK risks being shut out of a historic oceans summit because parliament has failed to ratify the UN’s high seas treaty, environmental charities and campaigners have warned.

    The high seas treaty, formally known as the Agreement on the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Marine Biological Diversity of Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction, comes into force on Saturday, after two decades of talks.

  • Country diary: There’s a hard, ancient pleasure to laying a hedge | Michael White

    Cranbrook, Kent: I have a stretch of leggy hawthorn that needs attention, so I head out into the cold with my axe and billhook

    Wire netting is everywhere in the Kent Weald – barbed boundaries to ancient pastures where sheep and cattle still idly graze. But what did farmers do for the hundreds of years before stock fencing was invented?

    Hedges, so rooted in what we wistfully consider to be our natural landscape, are in fact human-made features, planted almost solely for the purpose of enclosure. Unmanaged hedges are not a permanent solution, though: young trees mature, trunks become bare, and animal‑sized holes appear, rendering them useless. To remedy this, the practice of hedge laying was developed; unlike bricklaying, it is an act of maintenance rather than creation.

  • ‘Garden of Eden’: the Spanish farm growing citrus you’ve never heard of

    Todolí foundation produces varieties from Buddha’s hands to sudachi and hopes to help citrus survive climate change

    It was on a trip with a friend to the east coast of Spain that the chef Matthew Slotover came across the “Garden of Eden”, an organic farm growing citrus varieties he had never heard of. The Todolí Citrus Foundation is a nonprofit venture and the largest private collection of citrus in the world with more than 500 varieties, and its owners think the rare fruit could hold the genetic secrets to growing citrus groves that can deal with climate change.

    The farm yields far more interesting fruit than oranges and lemons for Slotover’s menu, including kumquat, finger lime, sudachi and bergamot.

  • ‘If you’re flushing the toilet with grey water, people should know’: how China turned rain into an asset

    Architects and designers have recycled ancient practice of collecting rainwater to make buildings ecologically friendly

    When the legendary Taiwanese rock band Mayday were due to perform in Beijing one evening in May 2023, some fans were worried that the rainy weather could affect the show. Mayday were taking to the stage in Beijing’s National Stadium, also known as the Bird’s Nest, built for the 2008 Olympics. Like the real-life twig piles that give the building its nickname, the stadium is built with an intricate and highly porous lattice, made of steel.

    “Don’t worry too much,” reassured an article published by the official newsletter for China’s ministry of water resources. “The Bird’s Nest also has its ‘secret weapon’!”

  • How Trump’s promise to slash energy bills in half has failed across the US

    Guardian analysis shows electricity bills were up 6.7% last year, and much higher in some states, and gas bills up 5.2%

    Donald Trump has comprehensively failed to meet a key election promise to slash Americans’ energy bills in half within the first year of his presidency, with power prices instead surging across the US.

    The average household electricity bill in the US was 6.7% more expensive in 2025 compared with the previous year, according to a Guardian analysis of data from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), the Department of Energy’s statistical arm. The increases meant that, on average, US households paid nearly $116 more across 2025 than they did in 2024.

    Bandra, Mumbai, 1998.

    Andrew Rogers, a 34-year-old Sydney greenkeeper, was visiting family in India with his wife, Winnie, and one-year-old son, Terence. Inside, as aunties prepared breakfast – the kitchen a sanctuary from the humid, honking streets – the phone rang.

  • Sustainability on the clock: how to make your workplace more eco-friendly

    From ride-to-work challenges to waste-conscious catering, making your office more environmentally minded doesn’t have to be a slog

    January marks the start of a new work year, and as Australians head back to the office, site or shop floor, it’s a good opportunity to revisit and refresh some wasteful work practices.

    Most people spend a considerable amount of time at work so actions we take there can be meaningful, says Helen Oakey, chief executive at Renew, a not-for-profit that advocates for people to live sustainably.
