I've just been told by a friend in France that finally two days ago,
imidacloprid (trade name Gaucho) was banned for corn seed
treatment in France due to bee losses.
She also mentioned that they have a honey shortage, and theft of
beehives has become a problem.
Maybe others can supply more details. I've been tied up and cannot
get here as often as I'd like.
