Cypermethrin
is a synthetic compound primarily used as an insecticide. It acts as a
fast-acting neurotoxin in insects. It is easily degraded on soil and
plants but can be effective for weeks when applied to indoor inert
surfaces. Exposure to sunlight, water and oxygen will accelerate its
decomposition. It is a synthetic pyrethroid.
Cypermethrin is highly toxic to fish, bees and aquatic insects, according to the National Pesticides Telecommunications Network (NPTN).
Cypermethrin is found in many household ant and cockroach killers, including Raid and ant chalk.
