Have your bees suffered from agro-chemicals?

Have your bees suffered from pesticides, herbicides or treatments? An initiative of the Apimondia working group is collecting information on a global scale about toxicity events and their effects on honey bee colonies.

Their short anonymous questionnaire focusing on specific toxicity events can be found here.

The Apimondia working group is called Adverse Effects of Agrochemicals and Bee Medicines on Bees and this research is led by Dr Fani Hatjina of the Hellenic Agriculture Organisation – Demeter – in Greece. Vita Bee Health regularly works with the organisation and recommends that any beekeeper whose honey bees have suffered the effects of pesticides, herbicides or treatments completes the survey.
