Neonicotinoid Pesticides Conclusion

Content: The chemical is used as an alternative to nicotine, which degrades rapidly. Clothianidin was also developed to replace the old insecticides, which were harmful to humans and other mammals. It has been used to prevent pests that have developed resistance to other insecticides, such as carbamates and organophosphates. The killing of non-target insects, such as bees and butterflies, is the major risk that is associated with the use of Clothianidin. 2. Imidacloprid
Imidacloprid is a systemic insecticide that is used to prevent pest infestation in the soil, timber, rice hoppers, and cereals among others. It works by inhibiting the transmission of chemicals in the nervous system of the insect. The blockage of chemical transmissions leads to paralysis and death of the insect. Products containing Imidacloprid are available in different formulations, including dustable powder, granular, suspension concentration, and wettable powder. According to studies, Imidacloprid also has some adverse chemical effects to the environment.
