"A focus on honey bees has distorted the debate around neonicotinoids. But there is more and more evidence that widespread use of neonicotinoids has severe effects on a range of organisms that provide ecosystem services like pollination and natural pest control, as well as on biodiversity."

This and the previous study I posted has changed my stance on Neonics. I still feel they are safe for honeybees but it's becoming very clear they are impacting other life forms negatively.
