No impact of cyantraniliprole on the hibernation success of bumble bees () in a soil-mediated laboratory exposure study.

Increasing evidence shows that wild bees, including bumble bees, are in decline due to a range of stressors, including pesticides. Our knowledge of pesticide impacts has consequently grown to enable the design of increasingly realistic risk assessment methods. However, one area where knowledge gaps may still hinder our ability to assess the full range of bee-pesticide interactions is the field of exposure.
