What should you avoid when applying pesticides near water bodies?

Using coarse spray droplets
Spraying in calm weather conditions
Allowing drift to enter water bodies
Using low-pressure nozzles

The correct answer is: Allowing drift to enter water bodies

Applying pesticides near water bodies can be very harmful to aquatic life. You should always avoid allowing drift to enter water bodies because the pesticides can spread and contaminate the water, potentially harming fish and other aquatic organisms. This can also have negative impacts on the surrounding environment. Options A, B, and D do not address the potential harm to water bodies and therefore are not the best choices to avoid when applying pesticides near water.
