Pyrethroids are synthetic analogues of pyrethrins, which are organic insecticides. Pyrethrins are insecticides made from the pyrethrums found in Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium and Chrysanthemum coccineum flowers. Pyrethroids, which are pyrethrin-like insecticides, are frequently used to control arthropods in the home (insects). It is a systemic pesticide that operates as a neurological toxin (inhibits depolarization of the sodium voltage-gated pump axons) and causes the targeted insects to become paralysed and eventually die.
Due to their extreme light sensitivity, pyrethroid insecticides have a very limited shelf life and biodegrade very rapidly when exposed to sunshine. Pyrethroids are not hazardous to humans, other mammals, birds, or reptiles, are moderately toxic to fish, , and other aquatic wildlife, and are severely toxic to insects. Long-term acute exposure, on the other hand, could have negative consequences.Pyrethroid is an insecticide made from the synthetic modification of natural pyrethrins found in Chrysanthemum flowers. These are used in industries, households, and agricultural operations to control a range of insects.
