According to Lowe’s Corporate Social Responsibility Report, “Lowe’s is committed to regularly reviewing the products and information we offer customers and we’re taking the following actions to support pollinator health:

• Including greater organic and non-neonic product selections
• Phasing out the sale of products that contain neonic pesticides within 48 months as suitable alternatives become commercially available
• Working with growers to eliminate the use of neonic pesticides on bee-attractive plants we sell
• Encouraging growers to use biological control programs
• Educating employees and customers through in-store resources such as brochures, fact sheets and product labels”
