- Pyrethrins are natural insecticides found in daisy-like Chrysanthemum
flowers grown and harvested in Kenya, Africa and Austrailia.
Pyrethrins have a low order of toxicity to warm-blooded animals and
can be used
even in the home with extreme confidence.
When pyrethrins are combined with a synergist like piperonyl butoxide,
its "killing power" against insects increases dramatically.
The United States Department of Agriculture has stated that synergized
pyrethrum
"is probably the safest of all insecticides for use in food plants "and
that
" a pyrethrum formulation is approved for use around foodstuffs".
Pyrethrin may be used with safety in food plants, homes and around animals
where more hazardous materials cannot be used.
It has a long history of satisfactory use around mammals and birds.
Pyrethrin and the synergists are biodegradable and rapidly disintegrate
in sunlight and air,
thus assuring you that there will be no excessive build-up of insecticides
dispensed in the area being treated.
- REPELLENT AND INSECTICIDAL PROPERTIES:
Pyrethrin, usually considered only for its knock-down and kill effect,
also possesses substantial inherent repellency of insects.
Observations in food establishments demonstrate that flies are not immediately
killed
but are found more often on windowsills or near doorways,
bearing out the observation that pyrethrins are effective repellents,
kill slowly due to the low dosage applied and drive the fly to seek
the outdoors before dying.
