Cypermethrin is a synthetic compound primarily used as an insecticide. It is a fast-acting neurotoxin that is easily degraded on soil and plants but can be effective for weeks when applied to inert surfaces. It is a synthetic pyrethroid.
Cypermethrin is found in many household ant and cockroach killers, including Raid.
