Most of fruit gardeners had experience in using pesticide for about 6-10 years and were members of agricultural groups. The gardeners had appropriate behavior in pesticide application: choosing, mixing, spraying, storaging, destroying containers and medical care. Those who held more than 14 rai of land-holding had more knowledge about pesticide application rather than those who owed smaller land-tenure.
