> >A new paper is out linking Chlorothalonil with bee declines:


During the CCD epidemic I reviewed maps of changes in pesticide
applications across the U.S. occurring at that time.  What impressed me was
that although the finger was generally pointed at the neonics, it appeared
that increase in fungicide applications (esp. chlorothalanil) was more
closely correlated with colony loss rates.

This certainly does not exonerate the neonics, but I'm glad to see folk
finally looking into this.
