Certain neonicotinoid metabolites (mNEOs) are causing widespread concern because they are equally or even more toxic than the parent NEOs. Currently, there is limited information on the distribution of mNEOs in soil. Especially, it is unknown that the effects of agricultural factors, such as plastic...
