Simple process, actionable results

How it works?

DATA COLLECTION – A lab strip is installed in the entrance of your beehive, which will pick up traces of pesticides from any plants the bees pollinated.

ANALYZING DATA – After three weeks, the strip is removed and sent to our lab for analysis.

GET YOUR REPORT – You receive a quantitative report on your site’s pesticide exposure

TAKE ACTIONS – Personalized recommendations for safe pesticide alternatives to make a positive impact on human and environmental health

Frequently asked questions

Pesticides are a significant factor in biodiversity loss and bee mortality. Monitoring pesticide levels helps identify harmful practices and supports the implementation of safer alternatives, promoting a healthier ecosystem.

We recommend conducting pesticide monitoring at least once per year to get an accurate understanding of pesticide exposure year over year. Multiple add-ons can be purchased for seasonal tests.

The report will include site-specific recommendations for safe pesticide alternatives, application methods, and actions to reduce pesticide exposure and support biodiversity.
