Ingredients
While the exact proprietary blend is not always specified, household insecticide sprays typically contain active ingredients such as:
Pyrethroids: These are synthetic chemicals that mimic the natural insecticide found in chrysanthemums. They are effective at paralyzing and killing insects upon contact. Common pyrethroids used in such sprays include Tetramethrin, Permethrin, and Cypermethrin.
Butane/Propane: These are used as propellants to aerosolize the liquid formula, allowing it to be sprayed from the can.
