What happens when birds try to eat the fake bees? What happens when they break? Do we just leave them there? What would their batteries made of? Any dangerous material Lithum is not something you want on your water supply

I personally want more lithium in the water supply. It has been shown to reduce crime, suicide and all cause mortality. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1699579 https://mobile.nytimes.com/2014/09/14/opinion/sunday/should-...
