It's common in some areas for the municipalities to spray for mosquitoes. The intentions are good, but the poisons know no boundaries. When my family was on a short trip up to Indiana this Summer my daughter noticed this bee thrashing around on the ground after the city truck came by spraying poison in the streets.
Bee Thrashing From Pesticides
This video was originally posted on my daughter's Instagram account. With her permission I uploaded it to a private YouTube account so I could share it here on Steemit.
Her original message on the video was this:
I walked outside after they had sprayed for mosquitoes and saw this poor bee violently thrashing around on the ground. as if it were suffocating I scooped it up to bring it inside with fresh air. Hoping it would help. I don't think it'll make it. This is what happens when you spray pesticides!
I do love her passion and respect for life!
