chemicals are
interfering with the
Bees ability to learn and
remember.

exposure was also
lowering brain
activity, especially
when the two

used in
combination.
Falling numbers
Bees around the world
are facing an
uncertain future.

the bees nervous
system’s
They have a long-
term effect on the
bees as it effects
their survival instincts
Stinging CriticismWaitrose are asking
their suppliers to avoid
using pesticides linked
with bee declines.
The move makes
Waitrose the latest
retailer to take
action on pesticides,
after the Co-
operative
suspended its use
on its farms several
years ago
