To protect bees, you should avoid spraying during which times?

• A. Midday
• B. Early morning or late day
• C. Mid afternoon
• D. Just before rain

Answer: (B)

Bees are pollinators that forage when flowers are open and conditions are warm and sunny. To protect them, apply pesticides when bees are least active—early in the morning before foraging starts, or in the late afternoon after most foraging has ended. Spraying at midday means more bees are actively visiting flowers, increasing their exposure to the pesticide. Spraying just before rain isn’t a reliable protection for bees. So, the safest window is early morning or late day.
