HB 6258 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT LIMITING THE NONAGRICULTURAL USE OF NEONICOTINOIDS.

HB 6258 would restrict the use of neonicotinoid insecticides outside of farming. It specifically bans these chemicals for nonagricultural purposes like home gardening, landscaping, and ornamental plant care. The bill amends state statutes to prohibit such uses, aiming to protect pollinators (like bees) and public health. This directly affects homeowners, garden centers, landscapers, and businesses selling pest control products for non-farm applications.
