Country-specific effects of neonicotinoid pesticides on honey bees and wild bees
Question 1: This Science magazine article was said to be crucial to the EU ban, and all of its citing articles are strongly confirmatory. Are there any reasons it shouldn't be included?
Question 2: The finding of a 75% reduction in flying insect mass is concerning and should be included for context, should it not? 174.16.98.178 (talk) 15:09, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
Toxicity in Humans
I was looking for a "toxicity in humans" section in this insecticide article, similar to ones found in the herbicide Glyphosate article , but I noticed this article didn't have such a section. I noticed some discussions in the talk section, and concerns about affects on bees, but otherwise I'm concerned about the lack of information in this article about the toxic affects on humans. By May 2018, do any scientific studies exist? Should a generic statement be added to the article about the non-existance of scientific studies on humans? Thoughts??? Thanks in advance. 98.164.12.236 (talk) 09:14, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
