I never said the above and as far as I know the statement has never been made on BEE-L. I have personally seen hives killed with Imidacloprid and had hives killed in corn from contaminated pollen and guttation water. We have had on poster state bees do not visit corn pollen and many other statements made by many but I have never seen the statement made that systemics are the number one killer of bees. bob *********************************************** The BEE-L mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
