MedKoo Cat#: 146138 | Name: Dimefluthrin

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Dimefluthrin is a pyrethroid insecticide commonly used for controlling mosquitoes and other pests in household and public health settings. It works by disrupting the nervous system of insects, specifically by altering the function of voltage-gated sodium channels, leading to paralysis and eventual death of the pest. Dimefluthrin is often applied in aerosols, sprays, and coils for pest control due to its rapid knockdown effect.
