> Toxicology is a curious science. > Great post. What surprises me and what I would like to see is not sublethal doses and what they do but how bees in Lu's studies survived well above lethal doses over a sustained period of time. That is a head shaker. Sublethal doses are of interest, but for all pesticides we expose our bees to. The neonics are not alone in this as was shown by studies that showed larva are effected by stuff we put into the hives.
