>>> Dr. Pettis is the lead author of the following paper (also pertinent to the
other thread we are discussing): "Pesticide exposure in honeybees results in increased levels of the gut pathogen Nosema" published in 2012 The pesticide used in the experiments was imidacloprid.
>> Dr. Pettis also went on record when he spoke in Europe that CCD wasn't
caused by the neonics.
Now I guess we have to contact Dr.Pettis about the above contradictions and determine just what his observations/conclusions are.
