It’s not just animals, though. Chemicals in pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and fertilizers can also cause water pollution. Pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides are used to kill pests such as crop-eating insects and to control the growth of weeds and fungi. Fertilizers are used to feed crops and make them grow faster and healthier. Unfortunately, chemicals used to kill bugs and weeds can also damage other things. These chemicals can enter and contaminate water in several ways—through use and overuse in or around the water, from runoff, or by the wind. And their effects can be deadly. The chemicals can kill fish and other wildlife, poison food sources, and destroy the habitat that small animals use to hide from predators.
