“…Beeswax can be considered as a contaminant reservoir (Yáñez et al, 2013) or a final sink (Bommuraj et al, 2019). Even though most residues remain in the wax, residues migration from the wax to beebread, and larvae is a crucial factor that could affect the evolution of the colony (Murcia Morales et al, 2020). A residue accumulation can affect worker honey bee and queen development (Haarmann et al, 2002), bee longevity (Wu et al, 2011), and colony performance (Desneux et al, 2007).…”

“…A study of 189 pollen and 226 beebread samples conducted in China established many active pesticide residues, with higher concentrations being noted during spring [37]. Five chemical residues including amitraz and cypermethrin were reported in bee brood samples at concentrations of between 1 and 167 μg/kg in a study conducted in Spain [38].…”

“…In honeybees and wild bees (including bumblebees), the detrimental effects of pesticides and insecticides have been studied as non-target effects on these important pollinators, and thus, in the light of conservation. In addition, the accumulation of pesticides (and to a lesser extent, heavy metals) in beeswax and honey has received much attention [31,37,38,40,70,[99][100][101][102][103][104][105][106][107]. Since pollutants may reach the human consumer via these bee products, they may be used for biomonitoring of the environment, and most importantly, may mediate detrimental effects upon offspring, resulting in colony-level detrimental effects.…”

“…However, these subtle individual-level effects may be amplified over time, resulting in long-term negative effects on colony fitness [19,29,30]. For example, pollutants incorporated into stored foods or nest materials, including beeswax, may accumulate over time [31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40], leading to a constant exposure to pollutants of larva and adults of new generations of workers, as well as sexuals [37,41,42]. In this way, even subtle effects on individuals can have quite extreme negative consequences for social insect colonies, threatening their existence [21,29,30,43].…”
