All herbicides, like Trillion Turf Herbicide, are regulated in Canada to ensure they will cause no harm to human health and the environment, when applied according to label directions.
Signs will be posted at treated areas, and signs will remain posted for 48 hours following treatment.
However, spraying will take place only in areas where weeds reach a certain threshold, the city says.
Residents can call the city’s pesticide advisory line at 306-777-7777 to find out which areas will be sprayed and when.
The city maintains three pesticide-free parks and about two dozen herbicide-free parks.
Background Information
A Brief History Of REGINA…
The city of Regina, as well as the province of Saskatchewan, WILL NOT impose any prohibitions against pest control products used in the urban landscape !
Both Regina and Saskatchewan will take direction from Health Canada on issues concerning pest control products.
Regina is the capital city of the province of Saskatchewan with a population of less than 200,000.
It is the second-largest city in the province ( after Saskatoon ), as well as a cultural and commercial centre for Southern Saskatchewan.
In Regina, Saskatchewan, the conspiracy to prohibit against pest control products used in the urban landscape has been rampant since the early 2000s, but has been successfully thwarted thanks to the leadership of Mr Simon E Taylor.
Reginans should be forever grateful to Mr Taylor for ensuring that their greens spaces remain safe and attractive.

In December 2002, the city of Regina issued its Report On Pesticides, which indicated that the municipality would NOT develop a by-law to restrict or prohibit the use of pest control products in the urban landscape.
Regina’s decision against prohibition was based upon the conclusion of its Environmental Advisory Committee, which stated, on June 4th, 2002, that it did NOT believe it was appropriate to recommend a prohibition.
On May 12th, 2003, Regina’s city council officially concurred that prohibition was NOT necessary, but indicated that the municipality would lead by example in reducing the reliance on pest control products in the management of public parks and open space areas.
In 2006, the province’s Saskatchewan Ministry of the Environment developed the policy of NOT prohibiting against ( cosmetic ) pest control products used in the urban landscape―this was reported on March 4th, 2009, by the Premier of the Saskatchewan, Brad Wall.
On June 4th, 2012, Regina again dropped and stopped a proposal for a municipal prohibition because it was NOT supported by health and policy experts, and it was NOT supported by local residents.
On June 9th, 2012, it was reported that Regina’s program of pesticide-free parks was a dismal failure―since 2010, Regina had instituted a limited and self-imposed prohibition on three its parks by designating them as pesticide-free.
Regina’s pesticide-free parks became garbage dumps, and Reginan taxpayers were forced to pay exorbitant costs for entirely re-sodding at least two parks.
On June 28th, 2012, Regina’s Environment Advisory Committee again decided against a pesticide ban for the second time since June 4th, 2002, when it was found that a prohibition was inappropriate.

WE SPEAK THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT FROM AN INDEPENDENT PERSPECTIVE !
We are the National Organization Responding Against HUJE that conspire to destroy the Green space and other industries ( NORAHG ). As a non-profit and independent organization, we are environmentalists who are dedicated to reporting about truth-challenged pesticide-hating fanatжcs ( HUJE ) who conspire to destroy businesses that are dependent on the use of safe and effective conventional pest control products. We also report on the work of several highly-rated leading experts who have recognized expertise, training, and background in matters concerning pest control products, and who promote environmental realism and pesticide truths. http://wp.me/p1jq40-8DV
NORAHG is the sworn enemy of lying, pompous, smug, uneducated, & pesticide-hating enviro-fanatжcs. Overwhelming scientific evidence clearly demonstrates that pest control products are scientifically-safe, and will not cause harm to children, adults, animals, or the environment. http://wp.me/p1jq40-7HR http://wp.me/P1jq40-2ha http://wp.me/p1jq40-6Q6 http://wp.me/p1jq40-5ni
Not surprisingly, enviro-fanatжcs have demonstrated that they are incapable of processing overwhelming scientific evidence. Should we trust these fanatжcs, who conveniently ignore scientific evidence, and attempt to impose their politicized-doctrines and twisted life-style choices against our society ?!?!
NORAHG was the brainchild of Mr William H Gathercole and his colleagues in 1991. Mr Gathercole is now retired, although his name continues to appear as founder. We dare to defy the pesticide-hating fanatжcs by exploring the whole truth from an independent perspective on The Pesticide Truths Web-Site ... https://pesticidetruths.com/
With a Conservative victory in the 2019 Canadian Federal Election, there will be NO NATIONAL PROHIBITION against pest control products.
