Powering hundreds of insect control products, Pyrethrins is the world’s most widely used plant-based insecticide active ingredient.
Offering a myriad of benefits versus both alternative natural extracts and synthetic chemistry, natural Pyrethrins provides broad-spectrum contact kill of most insects. With its favourable toxicology profile, short environmental persistence, and short withholding period, Pyrethrins-based products are used in more sensitive applications including pest control in food processing environments, in protected cropping integrated-pest-management, and for eradicating head lice on school-age children.
Natural benefits:
Efficacy and application
Fast knockdown and kill of problem insects
Favourable toxicology and EFATE profile
Superior ‘flushing’ effect excites insects, flushing them from hiding, resulting in increased likelihood of contact exposure and enhanced control
Broad labels for formulated products with more approved uses and applications than many other alternative insecticide active ingredients
Long history of use with limited documented insect resistance
Eco-sensitive
Powerful and effective natural insecticide active ingredient
Sustainably grown and extracted from pyrethrum daisies grown by Australian farmers
Suitable for use in more sensitive areas including edible gardening and food processing environments
