High prevalence of veterinary drugs in #bird's nests
Fur-lined nests potentially expose birds like blue and great tit to harmful chemicals.

•

All 103 nests tested contained #fipronil and most also contained #imidacloprid and #permethrin.

•

The most common #insecticides in bird nests are used as veterinary drugs.

•

Higher insecticide levels were linked to increased offspring mortality.

Alors que l'industriel 🇫🇷 #BASF émettait déjà en 2003 des "niveaux extraordinairement élevés" de #polluants_éternels "qui pourraient même constituer un record mondial", de nouvelles analyses montrent une multiplication par 4 dans leurs eaux post-traitement.

Tout ceci pour produire du #fipronil, un #insecticide tueur d'abeilles interdit en 🇫🇷 depuis 2004, mais toujours produit par BASF et exporté à l'étranger.

La préfecture est au courant du problème dps au moins 17ans puisque un arrêté de 2007 mentionnait déjà la présence de la substance sur le site.

Pets, pesticides and polluted rivers

"Fipronil and imidacloprid are widely used in flea treatments, which are typically applied to the back of the pet’s neck once a month.These two chemicals are extremely potent neurotoxic insecticides and it is deeply concerning that they are routinely found on the hands of dog owners through ongoing contact with their pet. Pet owners will also be upset to learn that they are accidentally polluting our rivers by using these products.”

"The insecticides used in the flea products flow down household drains when pet owners wash their hands after applying the treatment. Wastewater from sewage treatment works is a leading source of fipronil and imidacloprid pollution in rivers, with concentrations exceeding safe limits for wildlife."

Imported pests and broad-spectrum pesticide regulation

"A “wildly toxic” chemical used to combat fire ants and the varroa mite in Australia is banned in Europe and harmful to humans – and it is poisoning waterways and killing native fauna, experts warn."

"Australia is “a basket case” in that the chemical regulator answers to the department of agriculture, rather than to the department of health, as in Japan, the US and Europe, said Landos."

"NSW MP Emma Hurst of the Animal Justice party said: “It is time for Australia to catch up to the rest of the world and ban fipronil.”"
