Speedzone is an herbicide and not an insecticide. If you were to spray flowering plants with Speedzone, then they will die from the herbicide and, therefore, would not cause long-term effects on pollinators in the area. We do not recommend spraying this or other herbicides in a way that would contact pollinators directly or areas such as directly around bee hives.
