Öko-Test: Verbotenes Pestizid in Instant-Porridge nachgewiesen

Die meisten Bio-Instant-Porridges schneiden bei Öko-Test sehr gut ab. Eine bekannte konventionelle Marke fällt jedoch durch - die Tester wiesen Spuren mehrerer Pestizide nach.

Pesticide spray drift from intensive horticulture on the the mid-north coast NSW -
Discontent in the region.

Home owners, dairy and beef producers among those concerned about how pesticide use affects their land as well as water quality on the mid-north coast

“Between 2001 and 2016 blueberry farming expanded 400% – mainly around the Coffs Harbour region.”

“This monitoring showed the continued detection of pesticides in most waterways sampled, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring in the region.”

“Monitoring in the Nambucca valley by the EPA has detected three different pesticides in low levels in three creeks, suggesting water quality in the area is not being impacted by excessive amounts of pesticides.”

Residuos de plaguicidas altamente peligrosos en muestras de polvo de hogares en la ciudad de #BuenosAires Se encontraron mezclas de hasta 32 residuos por muestra. Destacan #glifosato 2,4-D #atrazina #imidacloprid

19 % mencionó la exposición a través de sus trabajos (no agrícolas), por ejemplo, a través de la desinfección y el deshierbe.

93% tenían mascotas, el 51 % había usado repelentes de pulgas (imidacloprid y fipronil)

Flea treatments are turning our pets into an environmental hazard – there has to be a better way

Startling evidence of the dangers to birds and rivers from over-the-counter drugs should be a wake-up call for owners to press for alternatives, says writer Sophie Pavelle

The Guardian
@ClemensPitschke Ja, wenigstens bei #Imidacloprid. Das ist ein Neonikotinoid, das v.a. im Ackerbau zur Insektenbekämpfung zur Anwendung kam, bis es wegen seiner neurotoxischen Wirkung bei Honigbienen seine Zulassung in der EU verloren hat. Ob es je für die Parasitenbehandlung bei Nutztieren zugelassen war, weiß ich nicht.

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.

In gezuiverd water van tien rioolwaterzuiveringsinstallaties (rwzi's) in Friesland zijn hoge concentraties diergeneesmiddelen als #fipronil, #imidacloprid en #diazinon aangetroffen.

Al jaren verboden.

De Friezen gebruiken blijkbaar miljoenen vlooienbanden en mierenlokdozen ......

Ligt vast niet aan landbouw/veteelt.

In de landbouw is gebruik van gewasbeschermingsmiddel #imidacloprid sterk aan banden gelegd. Toch komt dit ‘bijengif’ nog makkelijk in het milieu terecht via middelen als vlooienbanden voor huisdieren, toont onderzoek van WUR-ecotoxicoloog Ivo Roessink. https://www.resource-online.nl/index.php/2023/02/02/vlooienbanden-vervuilen-het-water/ #WUR
