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

Insect Pest Management (2004, methodology): “Imidacloprid is the first commercial example of the neonicotinoid (chloronicotinyl) insecticides acting agonistically on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (Bai et al. 1991; Elbert et al. 1991; Nauen et al. 2001; Tomizawa and Cas ida 2003).”
Flea Biology and Control (2001, background): “or concerning the structure of the pharmacophore and their insecticidal properties are comparable to those of imidacloprid (Nauen et al. 2001).”
Assessment of the impact of insecticides on Anagrus nilaparvatae (Pang et Wang) (Hymenoptera: Mymanidae), an egg parasitoid of the rice planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) (2008, background): “Neonicotinoid insecticides were introduced into the market in the early 1990s and are currently one of the most important chemical groups used to control sucking insects (Nauen et al., 2001).”
