fenotiaatsit

Fenothiats are a class of synthetic pyrethroid insecticides, which are derived from chrysanthemic acid. They are widely used in agriculture for controlling a variety of insect pests, including mosquitoes, flies, and beetles. Fenothiats are known for their high efficacy and relatively low toxicity to mammals, making them a popular choice for pest control in both residential and commercial settings. The most well-known fenothiat is fenothion, which was widely used in the mid-20th century but has since been largely phased out due to environmental and health concerns. Despite this, fenothiats continue to be used in some regions, and ongoing research is focused on developing new, safer alternatives. The use of fenothiats is regulated by various international and national organizations to ensure their safe and effective application.
