Regulatory Actions by the EU and US EPA on Neonicotinoids Take Effect
Neonicotinoid pesticides have been under increased scrutiny due to their association with colony collapse disorder (CCD) in honeybees. The European Union (EU) was the first region to take regulatory action by enacting a ban in late 2018 on all outdoor use of the controversial neonicotinoids clothianidin, imidacloprid, and thiamethoxam. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) very recently announced a cancellation order on 12 pesticide formulations containing either thiamethoxam or clothianidin. The regulatory actions imposed by the EU and US EPA are focused on the key neonicotinoids linked to CCD.
