    Pesticides are synthesized chemical substances whose objective is to eliminate certain organic beings that are understood as pests from the human perspective. From the beginning, the desire to combat certain unwanted beings and achieve high levels of agricultural productivity revealed the destructive face of this object and its unrestricted capacity for interference across the entire geographic environment. Along this path, we seek to investigate the issue of pesticides based on the phenomenal complexity, the relational constitution, the inseparability of events and the dialogical need between knowledge, towards a “deep geography”. To this end, we evoke geographical epistemology through some authors such as Humboldt (1874; 2010), Ratzel (2011; 2019; 2020), La Blache (1911; 1946; 2009; 2010), Sorre (1951; 1967), George (1972; 1973; 1977; 1978), Picheral (1976, 1982, 1994) and Bombardi (2017; 2021; 2023) in order to mobilize the concept of environment as an epistemological marker to investigate the omnipresence of pesticides and, consequently, the ongoing process of spatial pathogenization, taking the state of Espírito Santo as a reference. In this regard, the aforementioned state highlights the need for concrete and coordinated actions to face the challenges associated with pesticides and their impacts, as well as the creation of strategies aimed at reducing poisoning, focusing on vulnerable groups and the specificities of micro-regions and municipalities. As a way of presenting the results, we organized a “cartographic essay on pesticides in Espírito Santo”, in order to contribute to the process of qualified information and organization within the scope of health promotion
