FYI-ODA issues new pesticide restrictions to protect pollinators
Media contact: Bruce Pokarney, (503) 986-4559
The Oregon Department of Agriculture is taking additional steps to protect bees and other pollinators from exposure to specific
pesticide products following multiple incidents of bee deaths this summer. In adopting a temporary rule, ODA is prohibiting the
use of pesticide products containing the active ingredients dinotefuran and imidacloprid on linden trees or other species of
Tilia.
The rule applies to all users, including professional applicators and homeowners.
Failure to comply with the new rule could result in license suspension or revocation as well as imposition of a civil penalty.
The temporary rule, which goes into effect immediately, will be enforced for 180 days and will protect pollinators while allowing
ODA to complete its investigation of recent bee death incidents as well as determine any future regulatory actions.
