> Warrior II with Zeon Technology is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or to residues on blooming crops and weeds. Do not apply this product or allow it to drift onto blooming plants if bees are foraging in the treated area.

> The farmer said he hadn't thought about spraying when he told me I could put the hives there. I appreciate him letting me know though.


Number one, the grower is violating the label requirements. DO NOT APPLY, it says. Secondly, a call at 10PM the night before is more of an insult than a help. Given a few days notice he could have gotten them out of there. They don't mention the location but in some states timely notification is also required BY LAW.
