No problem with zealots but you have to get your facts straight and you lose credibility when you stretch the truth too often.
look how often the claims in that article are prefaced with phrases such as 'leads me to suspect' or 'probably accounted for'
or what about the added parentheses and question mark.
Another one to check out.A young gardener told me that all of
the palms and tropical plants were routinely
treated with systemic, long acting pesticides
(neonicotinoids?) and consequently there
would be little bird life in there as there was
no insect food.
The oak tree claim says 'systemic pesticide', rather than neonicotinoid.
Dont forget to smell the roses and check that one too.
'leads me to suspect'
If you are a smart bloke you need to learn to read smart and note where the wriggle room has been inserted.but I could not
find one single honeybee, bumblebee or
hoverfly in my time among the roses. This
leads me to suspect that Kew’s roses are
treated against aphids with systemic neonics,
which kill and disorient bees at infinitesimal,
doses.
