EPA Administrator Michael Regan,

We urge you to ban the consumer sale of neonicotinoid pesticides to help save the bees.

Bees are dying and many species are headed for extinction. There is a vast body of research showing the irreparable harm that neonics have on bee populations. From damaging baby bees’ brains to paralyzing and killing bees, neonics are terrible for our most important pollinators.

A simple way to help struggling bee populations is to limit the use of bee-killing neonicotinoid pesticides. As you complete your review of the five neonicotinoid pesticides this year, we urge you to end the worst uses of these pesticides and restrict their sale to consumers.
