> Amitraz and its main metabolites, 2,4-DMF and 2,4-DMA, are known potent neurotoxicants. In honeybees they can lead to behavioral effects and neurotoxicity after the stimulation of octopamine receptors. The main neurotoxic effects include increased excitability, increased motor activity, and decreased feeding behavior.
