Technically, bee wax, pollen, and honey are animal products. No animal testing.

Yes. If I remember correctly, the two main ingredients are vinegar and clove oil. It will kill the vegetable plants if they are sprayed, but the components of the spray are non toxic and acceptable for organic vegetable gardening.

To be described as "culinary" roses or rose essence (such as that sold by Sur La Table) must come from plants that are pesticide free. If you have doubts about this point, please contact the seller for a more detailed statement. Regards.

Horticultural oils should be harmless to bees and butterflies if you don't spray them directly. It works mostly on soft bodied insects like scale and aphids by suffocating them. Any insect not directly covered by the spray is unaffected.

Well plants are plants. As long as the area where they are grown is organic I am fine with it.I personally have a hive for honey, but I don't collect the pollen, might someday try. This pollen is nice. It is packed with every nutrient your body needs.

The active ingredient in AzaMax is Azadirachtin, which is extracted from neem oil. Neem oil has virtually no toxicity towards humans and other mammals. Therefore it should be safe to use up to day of harvest. You may want to wash the fruit or vegetables that are sprayed but this should be even if they aren't sprayed. Also spray after sunset, this will save the bees from any harm. Dannie

It's a fungicide Jon......it's NOT an insecticide. We use this on our cucumber & squash plants to prevent or control fungus. We do not spray anything on flowering plant's when bee's are active. Do your spraying after 6pm .

No. Besides winding up in the fruit, it will be in the pollen and nectar, and will kill the bees that are needed for pollination.

Pretty much yes. There are leaf cutter bees that are mid summer. I suggest you also take a look at YouTube.

This product is NOT organic. They do make an organic raw variety that can be bought on Amazon (and it does have the USDA Organic Symbol), but for a higher cost: YS Organic Bee Farms Certified Organic Raw Honey 100% Unprocessed, Unpasteurized - Kosher 32oz 2 Lbs Frustration Free Packaging

Chuckmac, if I remember correctly, their direct web-site states they DO NOT! However, I would go to their site and call their toll free number or, send them an email. I did a LOT of research before ordering their blueberries and cherries. Worth every penny!!!!! As far as I can recall, there are no pesticides used. Product is out of Michigan and is wonderful. Contact them regarding the pesticide question; that way, you will know for sure and hear it directly from them!! Enjoy!!

The Oregon State University's National Pesticide Information Center fact sheet for methoprene (the active ingredient) says it "appears to be low in toxicity to adult bees, although bee larvae may be more sensitive." Given that bee colonies are suffering from neo-nics and other stressors, why risk using this when you can use natural Bti dunks?

These chia seeds are not organic, however Healthworks does offer organic chia seeds. The label "pesticide-free" is used by farmers who don't use synthetic herbicides, insecticides, or fungicides, much like organic farmers. Many people who don't want to spend the extra money to get organic, and for them the pesticide free is fine. Some prefer the pureness and strict guidelines of organic and thus why there is a choice.Thanks,Healthworks

No, they are strictly fertilizer. For insect prevention, we bought Bayer Tree and Shrub Protect and Feed. Supposed to be guaranteed to keep the plants bug free for a year.

Not that we are aware of. Have used it for many years and still have bees and insects.
