PFAS pesticides on our berries
Isocycloseram – an emerging threat
The Australian Government was one of the first in the world to approve this PFAS pesticide and is currently proposing to increase the maximum residue limit on berries by 70 to 500-fold.
We shouldn’t be spraying forever chemicals on berries eaten by children.
It’s a risk to this generation and to those who follow, and it will persist in our soil, water and wildlife for generations to come.

Call on council. Call or write to your local council, and request that they stop using PFAS pesticides and prioritise our health and environment. Write your own letter or download and use this one.
Send your letter as an individual, or better yet, connect with community groups and other concerned local residents to join onto the letter and send in your concerns collectively.
One council going PFAS pesticide-free doesn’t just protect one community. It shows every other council in Australia how to do the same. It inserts pesticides into the national PFAS conversation and is an example of leadership to be celebrated.
We are here to support your campaign. Once you send the letter, or make a call, contact us with the response and progress!
