PROPERTIES
Prallethrin has high vapor pressure. It is used for prevention and control of mosquito, fly and roach etc. In knok down and killing active, it is 4 times highter than d-allethrin. Especially it has the function to wipe out roach. It's therefore used as active ingredient mosquito-repellent insect. Electro-thermal, mosquito repellent incense, aerosol and spraying products. The used amount in mosquito-repellent incense is 1/3 of that d-Allethrin.
