Reduce Bee Poisoning from Pesticides

Functionality & Mechanism Developed by Oregon State University Extension, this agricultural reference tool enables assessment of pesticide toxicity to bees across California, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. The interface supports queries by product name or active ingredient (chemical name) and returns toxicity classifications via color-coded icons and text. Three toxicity levels'ranging from highly toxic to none'are displayed based on Environmental Protection Agency precautionary statements. The platform functions as a digital companion to the full publication (PNW 591), which outlines collaborative guidelines for beekeepers, growers, and pesticide applicators. Intended Use & Scope This application is intended for farmers, beekeepers, and pesticide applicators requiring rapid field access to pollinator toxicity data. It serves as a reference utility for informed product selection. This tool is intended to support, not replace, EPA label requirements or professional agronomic consultation.
