California sprayed between 160,000 - 500,000 acres with Malathion to beat back the Med fly in 1989-1990
Here’s a brief video recreation in Robert Altman’s Short Cuts. (In the first 10 seconds or so). The choppers flew at night. They told people to cover their cars. Now, imagine the first night that scene played out over Puna, even if the spray was relatively nontoxic. I imagine it would also be the last night.
