Imidakloprid je sistematski insekticid koji deluje kao neutrotoksin za insekte. Spada u klasu hemikalija poznatih kao neonikotinoidi, koji deluju na centralni nervni sistem insekata uz daleko manji stepen otrovnosti za sisare. Hemikalija deluje na prenos signala u nervnom sistemu insekta. Imidakloprid proizvodi blokadu nikotinergijskih nervnih puteva. Ova blokada dovodi do nagomilavanja acetilholina, vaznog neuroprenosnika, sto rezultira paralizom insekta te vrlo cesto dovodi do smrti. Taj nacin je efikasan kod direktnog kontakta i putem oralnog uzimanja. Posto se imidakloprid puno jace veze na neuroreceptore insekta nego na neuroreceptore sisara, ovaj insekticid je selektivno daleko otrovniji za insekte nego za sisare. Danas je imidakloprid jedan od najrasprostranjenijih i najvise koristenih insekticida na svetu.
