All, Whatcom County Management has, at the instigation of the local voters association, recently decided to go back to the use of this herbicide on roadsides. The area(Point Roberts) has been exempt from roadside spraying for the past few years as it was considered an ecologically sensitive area but the Public Works folks seem to be inclined to respond quickly to this call for help. The spraying is being scheduled for June and I wonder if anyone has info on Roundups effect on Apis m. foragers or, possibly, time-of-day restrictions we can insist on? Any help appreciated. ...Stuart -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ...Stuart Grant,(49degrees N; 123 degrees, 20 min W; elevation 20m; Strait of Georgia 2k; rural urban combination in temperate rainforest setting) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
