The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Biological control and integrated pest management in organic and conventional systems (2020, background): “Herbicide drift has adverse impacts on non-target plant and arthropod species (Egan et al., 2014).”
The Hidden and External Costs of Pesticide Use (2016, background): “Egan et al. ( 2014 ) showed that changes in the structure and function of arthropod communities depend on species composition, crop rotation patterns and the timing of herbicide exposure.”
Worldwide decline of the entomofauna: A review of its drivers (2019, background): “Herbicides, however, reduce the biodiversity of vegetation within the crops and in surrounding areas through drift (Egan et al., 2014) and runoff, thus impacting indirectly on the arthropod species that depend upon wild plants, which either disappear completely or decline significantly in numbers (G”
