Hi Dr Ellis! I've heard you speak regarding bees and pesticides, and took away that you're not overly concerned with the immediate effects on bees, which is reassuring. However, what are your thoughts on bees long term exposure to pesticides? We know that toxins build up in beeswax over time, and as such, beekeepers regularly discard old frames and replace them with new. What are your thoughts on toxin build up in wild beehives?
