RE: In an effort to save the declining bees, EU has now banned the most used type of insecticide from all outdoor use!

in #nature7 years ago

Interesting one @valth
These bees holds our future as said by Einstein. (No bees, no human race)
And harming them with a puff of cigarette is really a shame. It might not effect the adult individual as it is in low dose but passive smoking within the little childrens are also very harmful. Smoking in front of pregnant women may lead to miscarraige. Nicotine in any form should be banned.

Thanks.

Yep, nicotine is very bad, but not as bad as the neonicotinoids. I have no idea how the bees would respond to nicotine, but they would probably be negatively affected by that as well.
