Usage

General Description

Prallethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide typically used in household insecticide products such as mosquito coils, aerosol sprays, and electric vaporizers. It is a fast-acting neurotoxin that targets the nervous system of insects, causing paralysis and ultimately death. Prallethrin works by disrupting the normal function of nerve cell membranes, leading to a rapid knockdown of flying and crawling insects upon contact. While generally considered low in toxicity to humans and pets at the levels typically found in household insecticide products, it is important to use these products according to the label instructions and take precautions to minimize exposure to the chemical.
