UK to Ban Most Bee-Harming Pesticides

The UK government plans to ban many bee-killing pesticides, protecting vital pollinators and ecosystems.

However, a highly toxic neonicotinoid, Cruiser SB, might still be permitted due to farmer applications.

This powerful pesticide severely harms bees' nervous systems, even small amounts causing significant damage.

Environmental groups urge complete bans and stronger action to safeguard bee populations for the future.
