Abstract: The Effect of acetamiprid 20% SP spraying insecticides at full dose visits of honey bees was initially low on 1st day after spraying (was in the range of 2.66 to 3.66 bees/m2) followed by 5th day after spraying (was in the range of 3.00 to 4.66 bees/m2). The visit of honey was initially high in 14th day after spraying and found at par (in the range of 6.00 to 6.66 bees/m2) with honey bees observed before spraying of acetamiprid 20% SP followed by 10th day after spraying (in the range of 5.00 to 6.77 bees/m2) honey bees population. However results revealed that the comparison of full dose and half dose of acetamiprid among which at that half dose of acetamiprid has found more visits of honey bees than the full dose of acetamiprid spraying on safflower. However results revealed that comparison between Imidacloprid and Acetamiprid were found that Acetamiprid was safest to honey bees as compared to Imidacloprid insecticide.
