I have been using Bayer products for six decades, but I’m going to have to stop as long as some of them contain neonic pesticides. Since your products are based on science, you must know that neonics kill bees in mass numbers — and that one of every three bites of food we eat depends on bees. I can’t understand why, after the European Union put a moratorium on bee-toxic products in Germany, that your German CEO is OK with fouling America. Is this where he is dumping what he couldn’t use in Germany? PLEASE act responsibly and take neonics out of the U.S. market. I want to be able to trust Bayer again.
