Save the Bees Australia
Mornington Peninsula shire leaves more questions than answers but confirms they want to experiment with deadly chemicals on the constituents of the Mornington Penisula and millions of insects including indigenous bees, ants, spiders and butterflies will die.

There is a perfect natural way to combat mosquitoes!

Despite their diminutive size, microbats serve a unique purpose, consuming thousands of insects that cause damage to crops and threaten humans (notably, the treacherous mozzie)! In fact, a single microbat can consume over 1000 mosquitos in a single night – that’s more than I could easily swat away! Therefore, it is important we do our best to provide happy homes for Australia’s microbats.

www.facebook.com/1485185251762708/posts/2398623100418914?sfns=moA carefully scripted media release from the Mornington Peninsula shire leaves more questions than answers but confirms they want to experiment with deadly chemicals on the constituents of the Mornington Penisula and millions of insects including indigenous bees, ants, spiders and butterflies will die.

This toxic experiment is being conducted without the consent of residents.

Beekeepers will be unlikely to feel any assurance that their bees will be safe even if they register their hives with the Shire because bees forage for up to 4km and the deadly chemicals used Synthetic pyrethroid pesticides have a residual effect for weeks.

In the reactive press release the shire has flagged the possibility that they may not now do fogging but still give no guarantee. We need them to give a guarantee.

7news.link/x415x6

Irresponsibly the shire have not included the safety data sheets of the three chemicals they plan to use most likely because after you read them it will confirm they are anything but safe.

At a time when Australia has one of the highest cancer rate in the world and many councils are choosing organic herbicides rather than using the carcinogenic Glyphosate . It is disappointing that it looks like this experiment is still going to proceed and our shire seem dedicated to chemicals .

One solution suggested on the local southern peninsula noticeboard page was

“Microbat nesting boxes. A single microbat will
eat +600 mozzies an hour when feeding..... Boxes could be built by volunteer groups for a few dollars each..... plus the bats would help to continually keep mozzies in check year round, increase local biodiversity, etc..... It’s not that hard to see how nature works and provides balanced, non destructive solutions, but governments councils and chemical companies often only see the quick fix and none of the destruction they manifest.”
