Most bee poisoning occurs when insecticides are applied to crops during blooming periods. This may occur because excessive rates of actual toxicants are applied or because be-cause spraying is done during daylight day-light hours when bees are active in the field, or by drift of toxic sprays onto adjoining crops which are in bloom. There is no point in working hard and going to considerable expense ex-pense with fertilizing, dodder control, con-trol, watering, etc., bringing crops into bloom and then killing off some of the most valuable assets, 7. the pollinators and natural predators, preda-tors, by improper use of insecticides. insecti-cides. Every grower should investigate investi-gate more fully his insect problems prob-lems and exercise precautions in preserving these natural benefactors. benefac-tors.

(Generally between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m.) Use insecticides which are relatively re-latively non-hazardous to bees or natural benefactors. Avoid drift into adjoining crops in bloom. Do not apply insecticides over wild bee nesting sites, streams, lakes, or ponds. Coordinate and cooperate your spraying program with your neighbors. A unified effort will be rewarding in reduced spray application, reduced insect migration mi-gration from adjoining fields and reduced costs. For crops to be used for feed, select insecticides that have al lowable residue tolerances. Read label for allowable rates of application, ap-plication, interval between application appli-cation and day of harvest, and number of allowable applications per season. Check with your local insecti-c'de insecti-c'de dealers and County and State Extension personnel. Learn to distinguish between natural benefactors i.e., lady bird beetle, larvae and adults, nabis, lace wings, big-eyed bugs, etc.. 9. Delta, Utah Copy 10c NEW.
