How It Works

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.
