>Is it known how long it takes for the insecticide in the soil no longer
to be taken up by weeds that bees may feed on?

With quoted half lives of up to 1150 days, it seems to me that a two year 
moratorium may be too short to draw any definite conclusions.  Let us hope 
that the research moves on in the next two years.

Best wishes

Peter
