Our new research finds that spot-on flea treatments on pets are a major source of river contamination with potent insecticides. Also, owners hands are continually contaminated by contact with treated pets. Pls RT (1/2) theguardian.com/environment/… @roseofgoodhope @PAN_UK

Mornin’ folks. We’ve had a lot of people enquiring about and commenting on #bumblebees asleep on #flowers, especially at this time of year, so here’s a quick (long)🙄 thread explaining what’s going on. Please retweet so more are more informed. Thanks good people. #bees 1/16

Many people asking us about #bumblebees at the moment - why they’re seeing them on the ground - so here’s a quick thread to explain what they’re up to. Please #retweet as every #queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce new queen #bees for next year! 1/8

A new peer-reviewed paper has found that whilst #pesticide drift mitigation measures (e.g., training, bans, no-spray zones) appear to reduce contamination of non-agricultural areas, hazards to humans and the environment remain. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Four species of Dasysyrphus hoverflies recorded in one relatively small part of Abernethy Forest on 4 June 2022 (neovenustus, pinastri, tricinctus, venustus). Part of the impressive list of insects generated that day. #HappyMemories

📢@BioDataCentre's All-Ireland Bumblebee Monitoring Scheme 2012-21 report is out now! 🙌It generates a multi-species population index as a measure of 🇮🇪’s #bumblebees' health, providing data that'll be used to assess the impact of the @PollinatorPlan. 🔗bit.ly/3DXUkj2

Autumn would not be the same without 🎃🎃🎃 Yet, they will be history if pollinators disappear, just as many other foods we love Visit #PollinatorPark for an eye-opening round of grocery shopping in a future without 🦋🐝🪰: pollinatorpark.eu #WorldFoodDay #EUPollinators

7 years ago this field had just been resown in grass for silage. it looked like most Irish fields: uniformly green with no surviving wildflowers. here's how we brought it back to life:

We spent the last week at UMONS in Belgium, attending the Advanced Bee Taxonomy Course. Together with our fabulous instructors, we worked on one #bee genus per day, all chosen for their taxonomic notoriety 🐝🤔 Fun times! #EUPollinators #taxonomy #biodiversity #EUPOMS

“Biodiversity is the only defence we have against climate change.” Baseline synchrony between plants and pollinators is dramatically improved with more pollinator species. Lovely invited talk by @ibartomeus #Pollinators22

Summer in the city: collected hoverfly Spilomyia saltuum this morning. Such a fantastic wasp mimic 💘 #zagreb #urbanecology #pollinators

Field work favorite: finding hidden meadows. No path leads to this one. And pollinators were buzzing in a different, long forgoten dialect. #NPRisnjak #mountainpollinators

Set up pan trap holders in field? No problem! That's why we call it testing the methodology 💪 #EUPOMS #EUPollinators #žumberak
