I'd like to know this information as well. A few weeks ago, I asked sanet if
anyone could confirm the studies done in France that claimed bt sprays to be
potentially dangerous. I got 0 responses. Does this means no one knows, or is
it a skeleton in the closet? Also, do bt sprays kill Monarch butterfly larvae?
