CAS 240494-70-6: Metofluthrin
Description:Metofluthrin is an insect repellent belonging to the class of pyrethroids, which are synthetic chemicals modeled after natural pyrethrins derived from chrysanthemum flowers. It is primarily used to repel mosquitoes and other flying insects, making it popular in both household and outdoor applications. Metofluthrin is characterized by its low toxicity to humans and animals when used as directed, which contributes to its appeal as a safe option for pest control. The substance is typically formulated in various forms, including coils, mats, and sprays, and is known for its effectiveness at low concentrations. Its mode of action involves disrupting the nervous system of insects, leading to paralysis and death. Metofluthrin is also notable for its relatively low volatility, which allows for prolonged efficacy in repelling insects. Additionally, it has a favorable environmental profile, as it breaks down relatively quickly in the environment, reducing the risk of long-term ecological impact. Overall, Metofluthrin is valued for its effectiveness, safety, and environmental considerations in pest management.
