Cypermethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide developed to mimic natural pyrethrum extracted from chrysanthemum flowers. It works by attacking the insect's central nervous system upon contact or ingestion.
Once exposed:
- Nerve cells become overstimulated
- Insects become paralysed
- Feeding and grooming stop
- Insects die rapidly
The synthetic formulation remains effective longer than natural pyrethrum, providing extended protection.
