Permethrin is mostly used as a pesticide. It is particularly effective against insects and arachnids. It is also used as an insect repellent. Although highly toxic to our feline friends the cat, it has a low toxicity to most mammals. Care should be taken when disposing of this chemical as it is also highly toxic to fish. Like other members of the pyrethroids family of synthetic chemicals it is essentially a neurotoxin and should be used with care.
