Examining the effects of repeated pesticide exposure on bumblebee queen survival and reproduction

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–March 2025.
Here, we look at the effects of an unstudied, yet biologically likely exposure regime, on bumblebee queens. We found that neither exposure to sulfoxaflor pre‐ or post‐hibernation, nor their combination, impacted hibernation survival or colony foundation.
