Millions of bees dead after South Carolina sprays for Zika mosquitoes - GoFuckYourself.com

wehateporn · 09-01-2016, 09:51 AM

On Sunday morning, the South Carolina honey bees began to die in massive numbers.

Death came suddenly to Dorchester County, S.C. Stressed insects tried to flee their nests, only to surrender in little clumps at hive entrances. The dead worker bees littering the farms suggested that colony collapse disorder was not the culprit ? in that odd phenomenon, workers vanish as though raptured, leaving a living queen and young bees behind.

Instead, the dead heaps signaled the killer was less mysterious, but no less devastating. The pattern matched acute pesticide poisoning. By one estimate, at a single apiary ? Flowertown Bee Farm and Supply, in Summerville ? 46 hives died on the spot, totaling about 2.5 million bees.

Walking through the farm, one Summerville woman wrote on Facebook, was ?like visiting a cemetery, pure sadness.?

A Clemson University scientist collected soil samples from Flowertown on Tuesday, according to WCBD-TV, to further investigate the cause of death. But to the bee farmers, the reason is already clear. Their bees had been poisoned by Dorchester?s own insecticide efforts, casualties in the war on disease-carrying mosquitoes.

On Sunday morning, parts of Dorchester County were sprayed with Naled, a common insecticide that kills mosquitoes on contact. The United States began using Naled in 1959, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, which notes that the chemical dissipates so quickly it is not a hazard to people. That said, human exposure to Naled during spraying ?should not occur.?

In parts of South Carolina, trucks trailing pesticide clouds are not an unusual sight, thanks to a mosquito-control program that also includes destroying larvae. Given the current concerns of West Nile virus and Zika ? there are several dozen cases of travel-related Zika in South Carolina, though the state health department reports no one has yet acquired the disease from a local mosquito bite ? Dorchester decided to try something different Sunday.

If you heard the warnings months ago about Zika, than there must be thousands of babies in countries like Surinam and Brazil with small heads. But there aren't... I think it is like the Mexican Flu, more people die because of the vaccin than from the disease.

Turns out they added pesticide to the drinking water in the problem areas 9 months before the birth defects appeared, the Zika story is to cover this up and also to use as a new cash cow

... because having someone in charge solely because of his or her gender is the dumbest reason ever? So now we know you actually vote for the gender of a person instead of his/her views. Pretty idiotic. Like the people who voted for Obama just because of his skin color. A vote solely based on the race or gender of a person... Can't get any more racist or sexist than that.

when did I say vote for Hillary because of gender

I said, it would also be interesting to have 2 women in charge of our countries for once. It's a conversation...

you really make this place so retarded, people feel they can't say opinions or facts

I'm not voting for Trump because he's a nut case, fact
