Fate in :
Thiamethoxam is described by Syngenta as being only 'slightly to moderately toxic' to beneficial species such as bees and safe to predatory mites.
Fate in soil:
Thiamethoxam is degraded primarily by microbial action in soil; it has a median half-life of 51 days. Field trials indicate that the product is moderately to highly mobile in soil.
Fate in aquatic systems:
Thiamethoxam is degraded primarily by photolysis in water although it also undergoes hydrolysis at pH 7.
