In Florida, there is an extension service provided by the University of Florida which provides all kinds of information on farming and agriculture to the general public. Does the local university have a program like that in your area? If so, they can probably provide plenty of scientific evidence in your favor, especially if you can find a professor who is willing to help you. Can the health dept. really prove it's human anyhow?
