"Most uses of neonicotinoid pesticides represent a risk to wild bees and
honeybees, according to assessments published today by EFSA. The Authority
has updated its risk assessments of three neonicotinoids - clothianidin,
imidacloprid and thiamethoxam - that are currently subject to
<http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_IP-13-708_en.htm> restrictions in the
EU because of the threat they pose to bees":


Well, so do most poisons.  Interesting, the report also acknowledges contradictory research results and even some benefits.
