Zyklon B was originally developed as a pesticide and was used for fumigation in buildings and ships to control pests. However, it infamously became known for its use by the Nazis during the Holocaust as a method of mass murder in gas chambers. Its harmful effects are due to hydrogen cyanide, the active agent in Zyklon B, which is a highly toxic compound. Today, it is widely recognized as a symbol of the atrocities committed during World War II.

Zyklon-B, an industrial-strength pesticide, was poured through openings in the roofs of the gas chambers. When exposed to air, Zyklon-B gives off a highly toxic gas. The Allies found millions upon millions of empty Zyklon-B containers when they raided the death camps. Diesel engine exhausts were also used, either in the "showers" or in gas vans that they transported Jews to the site in.
