Wild bees that ingest the neonicotinoid clothianidin when they feed from nectar of rapeseed flowers grown from clothianidin-coated seeds, become lethargic. In addition, strawberries pollinated by these bees become smaller. These are the results of a study conducted by three BECC researchers at Lund University. Wild and managed bees are important providers of pollination services and benefit the pr
