Avoid Killing Bees
1. Identify what your pest problem is. Less than 19c of all the insects are harmful and IPM (Integrated Pest management) has proved that treating only the problem insects saves time & money.
“• Tty fe find as many alternatives as possible. The world of insecticides is very complicated. Don't be afraid to ask for help from a variety of people; your Agricultural Extension Agent, a neighbor who gardens, a local garden club, an IPM advisor, local beekeepers, your state university (Ag. School) or even a local farm supply dealer.
3. If you must use an insecticide, please use the lowest effective dosage and make a minimum of applications. STAY AWAY FROM DUST—USE SPRAYS OR GRANULES.
4. Never spray any insecticide on blooming flowers even if they are in the grass or weeds.
5. Spray late in the afternoon after the bees have stopped working.
6. If you must do a general pesticide spraying, let your neighboring beekeepers know at least two days ahead of time. The beekeeper then may take precautions, moving his hives, setting up pollen traps or draping his colonies. Call the extension office for advice, or call him at his Warrenton office, Wellemyer suggests.
