Citrus Pesticide for Orchids?

[Ray]

I have had dogs and cats forever.

I have used acephate on occasion for the last 30+ years.

Once it's dry and the odorant smell has subsided, the primary risk is over.

Granted, I have never had a pet or kid who chews plants.

You can buy disposable suits and masks. Googles can be washed.

There are quite a few sources to learn about pesticides and I have noticed that some have been updated. The cautions on the bottle are put there for a reason...no pesticide company would put them there if they did not have to do so. They would rather not admit that their products are not completely safe.
