Abstract

Today we have two directives and some amendments that regulate use of pesticides in most European countries. Directive 91/414 regulates placing of plant protection products (PPP) on the market whereas Directive 98/8 regulates placing of biocidal products (BP) on the market. Evaluation process for the registration is in most parts similar because it takes into account same parameters (efficacy, toxicity, ecotoxicity). Due to the same active ingredients that are used overlapping arise within the group of insecticides, acaricides, rodenticides and avicides.
