Chemical vs. organic control of pests


Question
Hi. I would like to know where on the web would be the best place to look for information highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of chemical and orgnaic control, taking into account the different treatment methodologies, and the pests that herbicides and pesticides target. Any ideas?

Answer
Dear Melanie:

First of all my humble apologies for taking so long to respond.  My favorite link for researching organic pest control methods is the website page listed below:

    http://www.citygardening.net/orggarlinks/

Be warned that not all the links are active as I discovered when I clicked on a few of them, but the entire page has at least 35 sites with a bounty of information.  In addition, I would also recommend Rodale's Organic Gardening Magazine and their site is:
