Pesticides of the new generation are dangerous for bees

A new generation of pesticides, specially designed to replace old protective equipment, harms colonies of bees. The destructive effect was seen after the ban of neonicotinoid insecticides in the European Union.

Based on the results of the study, pesticides based on sulfoximine reduce the number of bees and bumblebees. Now these pesticides are banned in 47 countries. Consider the ban in the UK.

It is expected that the EU ban will have a positive impact on the environment, but an alternative to peptides of neonicotinoids has not yet been found.
