  2. in pools and decorative ponds or self-contained artificial basins.
  3. for an infestation, but only with a permit and after ecological alternatives have been exhausted.
  4. within a radius of 5 m of warehouses and food manufacturing companies to ensure vermin control, but only with a permit.
  5. in case of use of insect repellent and rat poison to eliminate mice and smal rodents.
  6. in case of use of insecticide collars for animals.

Anyone wishing to use pesticides to control an infestation, vermin, spiders, or ants must first obtain a permit.

PERMITS
