is this product safe to use near where there are bee hives ?

Thank you for your enquiry. Irish Organic Weed Off is made with natural ingredients, including vinegar and clove oil, and is marketed as an environmentally friendly alternative to chemical herbicides. While it’s generally considered safer than chemical herbicides, it’s important to exercise caution, especially around pollinators like bees. Bees can be sensitive to various substances, particularly when they come into direct contact with them. Irish Organic Weed Off could potentially be harmful if bees come into contact with the product while it's being applied or if they encounter it shortly after application, particularly if it hasn't dried or dissipated. To ensure safety: Avoid applying the product when bees are active (usually early in the morning or late in the afternoon). Apply it in a targeted way, avoiding direct spraying near the hives. Let the product dry thoroughly before bees are likely to be foraging in the area.
