I use Weed & Feed on my lawn. Is that a pesticide?

Somewhat correct

By the definition, an antibiotic is a pesticide. In this case, the pest being bacteria in us. However, antibiotics are regulated by the FDA (The Food and Drug Administration) and they are not legally labeled pesticides, but you are still controlling a pest.
