Welcome to Toxic Pesticides in Lake Erie, an informational website to look into the use of pesticides and other toxins in Lake Erie. Irrigation from nearby agriculture goes into rivers that feed into Lake Erie, and this can carry the pesticides used on farms into the lake. While these pesticides increase farm output, they can have many harmful, toxic, effects on water quality and on the life living in the lake.
