Unfortunately, synthetic pyrethroids are dangerous to honeybees because they are broad-spectrum insecticides that will kill any insects that walk on the treated surface.
Every team member of GOTBUGSIKILL follows a strict protocol in order to do no harm to honeybees when doing foliar sprays. Honeybees are crucial insects to the food supply chain because they are the number one pollinator in the world. Without their magic, farmers would not be able to raise crops, and tens of millions of people across the globe would starve to death.
Our mosquito control program is one of the best in South Florida because we use the best products in the industry. These superior products are more expensive but last longer because they are made with a special technology that protects the active ingredient better than generic formulations.
The key to saving honeybees is not to spray flowering plants; our technicians know that! With the new generation of pyrethroids, we can skip a blooming plant and know that the product we applied during the previous service is still working.
One great advantage of essential oils is that they are repellents and do not harm honeybees.
