The use of sewage sludge as a soil improver has been promoted in agroecosystems. However, sludges can contain toxic trace elements because suboptimal wastewater treatment. Nonetheless, field studies investigating the negative effects these practices on pollinators are lacking. We collected honeybees from an area where is widespread, and one it precluded. Trace soils bees were quantified. Cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, nickel investigated they least correlated to each other known be toxic. Their levels related oxidative stress energy biomarkers, midgut epithelial health, body size wing asymmetry honeybees. found increased carbohydrate content sites with higher cadmium levels, histological damage epithelium area, presence dark spherites highest lead levels. Finally, we that smaller, fluctuating increasing mercury. To best our knowledge, this first comprehensive study concentration potentially deriving amendment practices.
