According to the chemist I live with, methyl iodide is less volatile than methyl bromide, so it probably is less danger to the ozone layer. However, it’s more dangerous to people (don’t imagine that methyl bromide was safe for people though).

I’m not 100% positive on this, but it was Methyl Bromide that was the ozone-depleting chemical. Since it was banned, there was a rush to find something else to use on strawberries. That’s why they’re switching to Methyl Iodide. I can’t find anything about Methyl Iodide being ozone depleting.

I have informed my family that we’re not buying conventional strawberries anymore. It’ll have to be organic or come from our own berry patch. Makes one wonder about who’s pocket the EPA is in….

Thank you for getting this out there. The more people that read it the better. For some reason people still think the government is there to protect them, but the opposite is the truth – they are only there to protect corporate interests at the expense of our health. Great article, thanks!

Scary! I have heard that berries in general contain the MOST amount of chemicals, toxins, etc….so if you’re going to buy anything organic, it should be berries. Makes perfect sense to me!

I hate that people spray pesticides on fruit that people eat. The fruit looks so wonderful and fresh but could kill you.

We grow our own strawberries and many other vegetables in our large garden. We use no products and our veggies and such come out looking just fine.
